Alicia Boitte Flon
Sales Director
With Homanie since 2022
Languages spoken: French and English
“For me, true luxury lies in being able to enjoy exceptional places, tailor-made experiences and thoughtful, attentive service.”
Through her favourite Homanie homes, her go-to destinations and her hidden gems, Alicia shares her perspective on the Homanie collection. She also reflects on her career journey, her inspirations and the experiences that, in her view, make a stay truly unforgettable.
“As Homanie’s Sales Director, I oversee and support our teams of Rental Managers, Corporate Managers and concierges. I ensure smooth coordination between our different departments and maintain the high standard of service we provide, whether for holiday rentals, corporate retreats, weddings or private events.
I place particular importance on team cohesion and sharing our expertise, so that every client receives tailored advice suited to their project. My role is also to ensure that our high standards and commitment to exceptional service are upheld at every stage, from the very first enquiry right through to the end of each stay.”
Her role at Homanie
her vision of the profession
“For me, success in our business is first and foremost built on client satisfaction and trust. This starts with listening carefully from the very first interaction, so that we can understand their expectations and recommend the home, destination and experiences that best suit their needs.
I also place great importance on the responsiveness of our teams and their ability to find the right solutions for every situation. Finally, I am particularly committed to the quality of our collection and the services provided on site. Every property and every service must meet Homanie’s standards, because it is this shared commitment to excellence across all our teams that truly sets the quality of our service apart.”
Her Background Before Homanie
“I have been working in sales for over fifteen years. I started my career as a Sales Executive before gradually taking on managerial responsibilities, then moving into roles as an Account Director and ultimately Sales Director. Most of my experience has been in PropTech, a sector that brings together real estate and new technologies. My journey at Homanie is closely linked to Sophie, one of the co-founders, with whom I had previously worked for five years at another company. Having long been drawn to the travel and hospitality industry, her invitation to join the Homanie adventure felt like a wonderful opportunity to put my experience to work in an entirely new environment.”
A Memorable Moment at Homanie
“What stands out most to me are the feedback and messages from clients thanking us for having perfectly understood their expectations, and sometimes even anticipated their wishes. It is incredibly rewarding to know that we have managed to exceed their expectations and create an experience that truly reflects what they were looking for. For me, these testimonials are the greatest recognition of the work our team does.”
Her must-visit destinations
-
“Cadaqués is probably one of my favourite destinations. It’s a place where Homanie has managed to uncover a real hidden gem. While many luxury travel agencies tend to steer their clients towards Menorca, Mallorca or Ibiza, we introduce them to somewhere different, with a truly distinctive identity. Of course, there’s the sea and the Cap de Creus Natural Park, but there’s also a rich history, a unique culture and a genuine village atmosphere. I love introducing this destination to clients who might never have thought of staying there if it weren’t for us.”
-
“We have some absolutely stunning homes on the French Riviera. We are still able to uncover real hidden gems, properties you simply won’t find everywhere else. That’s what makes our collection so special: being able to introduce our clients to unique places they might never have discovered or had access to otherwise.”
-
“In Paris, our collection is made up primarily of exclusive properties, with some apartments available exclusively through Homanie. We also manage the concierge service directly, providing a five-star experience to ensure our guests can make the most of their time in Paris.”
Her favorite villas
Homanie Bormes-les-Mimosas
“Homanie Bormes-les-Mimosas is an exceptional property, nestled in a truly lush and secluded setting. It’s a rare find, the kind of home you simply won’t come across on traditional rental platforms. From the moment you arrive, you’re immediately captivated by the beauty of the property and its surroundings.”
Homanie Cadaqués Cap de Creus
“It’s a house steeped in history, which belonged for many years to Dalí’s personal steward. You’ll find objects that once belonged to the artist, naturally woven into the interior design. This historical connection gives the house a truly distinctive atmosphere.”
Homanie Paris Saint-Dominique
“Also available exclusively through Homanie, this apartment offers, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful views of the Eiffel Tower. With its quintessential Parisian charm and warm, inviting atmosphere, it perfectly captures the art of living in the French capital.”
Questions for Alicia Boitte Flon
-
“A leading French jewellery house wanted to treat its clients, a family of four with two children, to an afternoon immersed in the world of Bridgerton. For the occasion, we arranged an exclusive hire of Homanie Paris Château, a 16th-century château. From the moment they arrived, the guests were transported into the world of the series, greeted by actors dressed in period costumes.
It was a truly original experience, perfectly illustrating how we can create entirely bespoke moments tailored to our clients’ wishes.”
-
“Travelling teaches us so much. It broadens our horizons, opens us up to the world and exposes us to different cultures. It also helps us better understand how other countries work and, sometimes, encourages us to question our own habits and ways of doing things.
When we travel, we become more receptive to new perspectives. We discover different ways of doing things, realise that some approaches may work better than those we are used to, and find inspiration to bring them back home.
Travel is also a wonderful way to develop empathy and gain a deeper understanding of others. It encourages us to see the world from a different perspective.”
-
“Experience. A home can be beautiful, with incredible interiors, the highest levels of comfort and stunning views. But if the experience it offers doesn’t live up to expectations, all of that can quickly be overshadowed. I believe true luxury lies above all in the quality of service: a warm welcome and attentive, dedicated teams who anticipate guests’ needs.
I would also add that luxury is about having access to exclusive places and experiences that few people get to enjoy, such as a private cove in Cadaqués or a private tour of a historic wine cellar in Beaune.
Ultimately, true luxury is this combination of an exceptional experience and access to things that are not available to everyone.”
-
“My wish is for our clients to remember the warmth of our welcome and the quality of our service just as vividly as the beauty of the property they stayed in. Of course, this starts with a carefully curated selection of homes, their upkeep and the attention paid to every detail. But what truly sets Homanie apart is also the level of care and support that goes into every stay: personalised recommendations, activities tailored to each guest’s wishes and thoughtful planning throughout.
My aim is for our clients to make the most of their stay, with the feeling that every little detail has been carefully considered just for them.”
