Luxurious Rapper-Backed Getaways

Booking.com and Ludacris Partner to Offer a VIP Experience

— August 21, 2024 — Marketing
Booking.com and Ludacris have collaborated to offer a unique VIP experience, providing travelers with a stay at Ludacris' Atlanta mansion. This experience, available for $4.04, offers guests access to a 22-acre estate with a range of activities designed for a memorable end-of-summer getaway.

One guest, "along with three companions, will enjoy a two-night stay that includes a meet-and-greet with Ludacris, paddle-boating on the estate's lake, and a BBQ catered by a local chef." The experience also features a private screening of Ludacris' films in his indoor theater and access to his private basketball and tennis courts. A luxury vehicle will be provided for transportation throughout the stay, and dinner at 'Le Bilboquet,' a French restaurant in Buckhead, is included.

Further, "Booking.com’s Genius Level 3 members will receive an upgrade to a personalized breakfast-in-bed experience from a local cafe." This exclusive stay is bookable on August 28, 2024, for September 3-5.
