Being a homeowner in Sälengodset Mountain Luxe doesn't just mean renting out a mountain house through an agent. It means entering into a partnership where property, guest experience and quality need to work together over time.
This page is for those who want to understand what the model means from an ownership perspective - what kind of co-operation is involved, what it takes to fit in and how the relationship works when the house becomes part of a more selective context in Sälen.
What co-operation means
The partnership with Sälengodset is based on you as the owner retaining control of your property, while we take responsibility for how the house is represented, booked and experienced by the guest.
This means that the relationship is not just about renting, but about how the house works within a model where quality, structure and expectation need to be linked. For some owners, this is exactly the right approach. For others, a simpler or more traditional form of letting is more suitable.
What matters, therefore, is not just what we do, but whether the way we work suits you, your house and the level you want to maintain over time.

How co-operation works
When your property becomes part of Sälengodset Mountain Luxe, we work with a clear division of responsibilities.
We are responsible for how the house is presented, booked and experienced by the guest. This includes marketing, booking management, communication and structure of the stay.
You as the owner are responsible for the property as a whole - condition, maintenance, insurance and keeping the house at the required level over time.
This creates a model where both parties know what is expected. It also allows us to maintain a consistent quality across the range, while you retain control of your property.
This includes
The partnership is designed to be clear, structured and long-term. It's not about one-off bookings, but about making the house work over time - both for guests and for you as the owner.
This is included in the model:
- Marketing & positioning
Your house is presented within an established brand with a focus on the premium segment. - Bookings & payments
We manage the entire booking flow, including payments, conditions and guest communication. - Guest experience & communication
All contact before, during and after the stay goes through us, with clear procedures and structure. - Structure & monitoring
You have ongoing insight into bookings, revenue and how the building is performing over time. - Access to networks
If necessary, you can use our network of local partners for operations, cleaning and maintenance.
It provides a model where you don't have to do the operational work, but still have control over your property.
This strengthens the house over time
An important part of the partnership is that the property is not only booked, but also delivers a consistent and well-crafted experience on every stay. This affects how the guest perceives the property, how reviews develop and how strong the property stands in the market over time.
Therefore, we work not only with bookings, but also with the structure around the stay. If necessary, the house can be linked to relevant services such as cleaning, linen, maintenance and other elements that strengthen the whole.
For you as the owner, this means that the building is better placed to function in the long term - both operationally and commercially - without you having to coordinate each part yourself.

Do the house and the model fit together?
Sälengodset Mountain Luxe is not right for every property, and that is an important part of why the model works. We are looking for houses where the standard, location, layout and overall feel can support a more considered position in the market.
That doesn't mean the building has to be perfect from the start, but it needs to have the right foundation and the right potential. In the assessment, we look at how the property works for the guest, what level it can maintain over time and whether it fits into the context we are building.
Similarly, the co-operation also needs to suit you as the owner. This works best for those who want a clear structure, a high level of delivery and an arrangement where the house is represented with greater care than in a more traditional rental model.
What we are looking for
- Premium location - ski in/ski out or close to lifts
- High quality, modern and stylish interior design
- At least 4 bedrooms for larger properties
- Well-equipped kitchens with quality appliances
- Sauna, jacuzzi or other luxury facilities
- Plenty of social areas for socialising
- Beautiful views and good light
- High standard of bathrooms and bedrooms
What does not fit
- Dilapidated or outdated buildings
- Remote locations without proximity to ski areas
- Inadequate fittings or equipment
- Properties with limited capacity (less than 4 persons)
- Accommodation without modern amenities
- Properties requiring extensive renovation

Frequently asked questions about renting out mountain houses in Sälen via Sälengodset Mountain Luxe
How much can I earn from renting out my property?
Revenues vary depending on the size, location and standard of the property, but our property owners see on average 20-40% higher revenues compared to traditional rentals. We work with dynamic pricing to maximise occupancy and revenue throughout the season.
Can I use the property myself sometimes?
Absolutely! We offer flexible solutions where you as the owner can block periods for your own use. However, we recommend that these periods are planned well in advance, especially during high season, to maximise rental potential.

Mountain Luxe operates a transparent commission model where we take a percentage of the rental income. This commission includes all marketing, customer service, booking and basic administration. Costs for cleaning, consumables and any repairs are charged separately, but handled entirely by us.
How do you ensure that my property is taken care of?
We carry out thorough screening of all guests and have clear rules for their stay. Our team inspects the property after each rental. We only work with trusted partners for cleaning and maintenance.
