Why Leukerbad
Why choose our concierge service in Leukerbad for specialised rental management
The largest thermal destination in the Alps: demand all year round
Leukerbad is not a ski resort like any other: it is the largest thermal destination in the Alps, with natural hot springs gushing at 51 °C and feeding millions of litres of water each day into the pools of the Leukerbad Therme and the Walliser Alpentherme. For an owner, this singularity changes everything: rental demand does not stop when the slopes close. Our Leukerbad concierge service exploits this dual ski + thermal engine with listings differentiated by season (skiing and baths in winter, hiking and spa cures in spring and autumn, wellness all year round) and dynamic pricing aligned with spa weekends, long weekends and school holidays.
Thermal clientele: perfectly drilled short turnovers
The thermal clientele has its own codes: short stays of 2 to 4 nights booked twelve months a year, high expectations for cleanliness and comfort, and communication mainly in German and Dutch. This rapid guest turnover demands a well-drilled local organisation — impeccable cleaning between each stay, hotel-quality linen, flexible check-in for spa-goers and skiers alike. This is exactly what our Airbnb concierge service in Leukerbad takes care of, just as we do in Ovronnaz, the other major thermal resort in our Valais portfolio.
Lex Weber, tourist tax: compliance handled for you
Renting out in Leukerbad also involves a regulatory framework to respect: Lex Weber and the property's status, a municipal tourist tax to collect and remit, declaration of overnight stays and issuing the Leukerbad Guest Card to guests. Our rental management builds these obligations into the day-to-day running of your property: you receive your income while we handle compliance and guest relations, with a dedicated contact who knows the Leukerbad property market sector by sector, from the thermal centre to the Albinen road.

Leukerbad: skiing and thermal baths
Located at 1,411 metres above sea level, Leukerbad is Europe's largest thermal spa resort, with 3.9 million litres of thermal water at a constant temperature of between 28°C and 43°C. The resort perfectly combines skiing on 55 km of slopes, open-air thermal baths and Alpine hiking. This dual ski-wellness vocation attracts a diverse clientele: families, couples seeking relaxation and groups of friends. The thermal baths are open all year round and create a unique atmosphere, especially in winter when bathers soak beneath the snow.
Beyond the thermal baths, Leukerbad offers a wide range of activities: the Gemmi Pass with its panoramic cable car, the spectacular via ferratas on the Daubenhorn cliffs, hiking trails to the Torrenthorn with 360° views over the Alps, winter skiing on a family-friendly area and trail running in summer. The resort also hosts wellness and cultural events throughout the year, reinforcing its appeal to a clientele focused on health and relaxation.
Why invest in short-term rental in Leukerbad
The resort enjoys visitor traffic all year round thanks to the thermal baths, open 365 days a year. In winter, skiers combine days on the slopes with evenings in the thermal baths. In summer, hikers and spa-goers enjoy the Alpine pastures and thermal cures. This constant appeal guarantees regular rental income and high occupancy, whatever the season.
Unlike long-term letting, short-term rental generates significantly higher income while preserving the flexibility to use your property whenever you wish. In Leukerbad, a well-managed property in seasonal rental can earn two to three times more than a standard annual lease, thanks to year-round thermal tourism and growing demand for wellness stays.
The short-term rental market in Leukerbad benefits from a loyal wellness clientele. Swiss-German, German and Dutch spa-goers and wellness enthusiasts form the core of this recurring clientele, with stays often longer than in traditional ski resorts. This loyalty guarantees a stable occupancy rate all year round.

Investing in Leukerbad
Investing in short-term rental in Leukerbad: what you need to know
01Why entrust management to a concierge service?
Managing a short-term rental in Leukerbad requires a specific approach. The thermal clientele has particular expectations in terms of comfort and cleanliness. Wellness stays are often longer (4 to 7 nights), which requires a different approach to turnovers. Communication is mainly in German and Dutch, as the clientele is predominantly Swiss-German and northern European. A professional concierge service masters these specificities and frees the owner from all operational burdens.
02What type of property rents best in Leukerbad?
Apartments with 1 to 2 bedrooms located near the Leukerbad thermal baths or the Lindner Alpentherme achieve the best occupancy rates. Properties with direct access to the baths or with views of the Daubenhorn cliffs are particularly sought after. A renovated apartment with a balcony, fitted kitchen and cosy atmosphere stands out easily. Proximity to the thermal facilities and the village centre remains the number-one criterion for this wellness clientele.
03Example: a 2-bedroom apartment near the thermal baths
A 2-bedroom apartment located 5 minutes' walk from the thermal baths, renovated with a warm atmosphere and a balcony facing the cliffs, can generate between 18,000 and 32,000 CHF in annual income. In the winter high season (December to March), the average rate is between 150 and 230 CHF per night. In summer, thanks to hiking and wellness, occupancy remains good with rates of 120 to 180 CHF per night. With professional management and dynamic pricing, this type of property regularly achieves 140 to 170 rented nights per year.
Regulations
Regulations, Lex Weber and tourist tax in Leukerbad
Lex Weber and second homes
Leukerbad exceeds the 20% cap on second homes set by the Lex Weber: the construction of new "conventional" second homes has been frozen there since 2013. In practice, for an owner: properties benefiting from grandfathered rights (built or authorised before 2013) can be freely rented out short-term; more recent homes may be subject to a tourist-use designation that requires regular letting ("warm beds"). Before any purchase or letting, we verify the exact status of the property in the land register and with the municipality — this is included in our free audit.
Tourist tax: CHF 6.– per adult per night
Leukerbad's tourist tax is 6 francs per adult per night (3 francs for children aged 6 to 16, free under 6). In return, each liable guest receives the Leukerbad Guest Card, which notably provides discounts on the public thermal baths (Leukerbad Therme, Walliser Alpentherme & Spa, Therme 51°), free use of the local bus and benefits on the Torrent and Gemmi lifts — a genuine selling point for your listing. The tax is collected from guests and then remitted, with overnight stays declared: our concierge service automates the collection, declaration and remittance — you have nothing to do, and you stay compliant.
Registration and compliance
As everywhere in Valais, short-term letting must be notified to the municipality and guests must be declared. Listings must also display certain mandatory information. We keep these obligations up to date for every property we manage in Leukerbad, and we alert you if municipal regulations change.

Frequently asked questions
What returns can I expect from a property in Leukerbad?
Income varies by size and location, but Leukerbad offers a unique advantage: the thermal baths generate visitor traffic all year round, including in the shoulder seasons. Purchase prices remain accessible, which allows for an attractive yield.
Why does Leukerbad have a distinctive rental profile?
Unlike purely ski-focused resorts, Leukerbad attracts visitors 12 months a year thanks to its renowned thermal baths. The wellness clientele books short stays (2 to 4 nights) all year round, which considerably reduces the quiet periods.
Is short-term rental permitted in Leukerbad?
Yes, short-term rental is permitted within the framework of Valais regulations. Leukerbad exceeds the Lex Weber's 20% cap on second homes: properties built or authorised before 2013 can be freely rented out, while more recent homes may be subject to a tourist-use designation. We verify the exact status of your property and assist you with all the procedures for a compliant and optimised letting.
Why choose a concierge service in Leukerbad?
Leukerbad combines thermal tourism (natural springs at 51°C, the largest in the Alps) with a ski area, creating year-round demand that is rare in the Alps. Our local concierge service optimises this dual seasonality by differentiating the marketing messages (ski / wellness / spa cures), and manages short stays (thermal weekends) as well as long ones (family ski weeks).
How much does a concierge service cost in Leukerbad?
Our commission is 25% of the net amount, after platform fees, transactions and cleaning. No fixed package, no commitment. For properties within walking distance of the thermal baths (Burgerbad, Leukerbad Therme) we highlight this proximity as a key selling point in every listing.
What is the best period to rent out in Leukerbad?
Unlike purely ski-focused resorts, Leukerbad enjoys average occupancy above 55% across 12 months thanks to thermal tourism. The peaks: winter (ski + baths), October-November (long thermal cures), July-August (hiking + baths). Spa weekends outside the ski season account for around 25% of annual revenue.
What are the short-term rental rates in Leukerbad?
Studios and one-bedroom apartments near the baths: 100-220 CHF per night. Family apartments with 2-3 bedrooms: 180-420 CHF. Chalets: 400-1,500 CHF. Properties within 500m of the Burgerbad or Leukerbad Therme baths rent 20-30% above the market.
How does the tourist tax work in Leukerbad?
The tourist tax is 6 francs per adult per night (3 francs for children aged 6 to 16, free under 6). In return, your guests receive the Leukerbad Guest Card and its benefits (discounts on the public thermal baths, free local bus). The tax is collected from guests and then remitted, with overnight stays declared: our concierge service automates the collection, declaration and remittance for the properties we manage.
How do you make the most of the thermal clientele outside the ski season?
We optimise for short stays (2-3 nights) between October and May outside school holidays, targeting wellness couples (Zurich, Basel, Germany) rather than families. "Night + baths entry" packages coordinated with the thermal baths, a reduced minimum stay (2 nights instead of 5), and photography focused on the relaxing atmosphere (not just mountain views). This strategy typically adds 30-40% in revenue compared with a ski-only strategy.
What type of clientele should you attract in Leukerbad?
The main clientele is focused on wellness and relaxation: couples, spa stays, wellbeing retreats. In winter, skiers complete the demand. Adapting your property with comfort amenities (bathrobes, a cosy atmosphere) increases its appeal.
How many nights per year can a property be rented in Leukerbad?
Thanks to the absence of a dead shoulder season due to the thermal baths, a well-managed property can reach 150 to 200 nights per year. It is one of the highest potential occupancy rates among the Alpine destinations we manage.
