Cue Don LaFontaine:

In a world. Where Angelenos. Own Xanadu-sized mansions. One website allows you to rent them and all their opulent trappings for overnight stays.

Introducing onefinestay, renting out the mansions and manors of the 1% in New York, London, Paris and now: Los Angeles.

Basically, onefinestay is Airbnb for the Diamond Class.

This is where you’ll find homes with, say, living rooms designed by Kelly Wearstler. Or emerald-accented sitting rooms by Stephen Grambel. Or this home, used as a backdrop on Californication’s first two seasons.

All ideal, by the way, for taking your partner for a (very) romantic excursion. Or – if you own a similar pad – for renting out while you’re away.

Behold the Jazz Age grandeur of this Fairfax chateau:



Or the sun-drenched living room overlooking the Pacific in this Palisades palace:



Each rental comes with a personal concierge, a driver and an iPhone with local guides curated by a former editor of Wallpaper.

Enjoy your stay.
