About
DayPass™ (https://daypass.app) elevates the concept of short-form luxury by offering curated hotel experiences for the day at selected premium establishments worldwide.
A poolside escape at a five-star hotel, a wellness retreat in a high-end spa, or a beachside moment on a private shoreline: each DayPass™ experience delivers a controlled, high-quality journey designed for a single day of leisure or reset.
Founded in 2018 by Alexandre Mayol and Bhaumik Kothari, the DayPass vision originated from a simple observation made in Miami in 2016:
“Before DayPass, accessing a hotel pool without being an overnight guest was unnecessarily complex. You needed personal connections, repeated calls, or unanswered emails. Meanwhile, major platforms were redefining access to premium services. Uber gave anyone a private driver, DoorDash brought exceptional dining home. The demand for an on-demand Country Club experience was obvious,” explains Alexandre Mayol.
DayPass today serves as an efficient bridge between guests seeking exceptional short-format leisure and hoteliers seeking to optimize underutilized spaces, attract new clientele, and diversify revenue with minimal operational friction.

4. Moments Made Possible with DayPass™
A Family Day at Club Med Cancun:
Imagine a family of four spending the day together by turquoise pools, children laughing at the waterpark while parents enjoy a fresh buffet lunch under palm trees. They return home with moments that feel genuinely memorable.
A Cruise Excursion to Paradisus Los Cabos Resort:
A traveler, docked for the day, slips into a refined coastal oasis. By the infinity pool, cocktail in hand, they take in the vast Sea of Cortez, turning a short stop into a rare moment of calm and beauty.
A Magical Swim at El Mangroove Resort in Costa Rica:
An explorer heads into a pool set deep within the jungle canopy. Every stroke moves through silence and greenery, a pure Pura Vida interlude before returning to the world outside.
A Wedding Anniversary at Morgan Resort Sint Maarten:
For a milestone celebration, a husband plans an exceptional day for his spouse. Golden beaches, an infinity pool, and a leisurely gourmet lunch create a quiet, intimate space where romance feels renewed.
