Good morning. Traveling for work can be fun and rewarding. You get to explore new cities, try different foods, and learn about local cultures. But there’s one obvious downside: coming home and trying to compete with perfectly pressed, high-thread-count sheets and a mint on the pillow. I’ve tried numerous times to replicate that feeling at home, but never quite captured the magic. That’s all about to change. 🛏️
Meet Daniel Iliescu from The Bonsai Shop 👋 - The Bonsai Shop was originally founded in 2018 after an unpleasent stay at a short term rental in Florida. Daniel quickly identified that hosts, owners, and property managers would benefit from a service partner that enabled access to high quality linens, towels, and other important items for their properties at wholesale prices.
Last year Daniel and his girlfriend Xiaoyue launched Bonsai Stays, in what they hope to be the future of short term rentals. Bonsai Stays enhances their guests experence through detailed housekeeping, amenity restocking, and luxury linens. They strongly believe that all travellers should have access to a lux getaway without the lux price tag.
