“Safety is the top priority when traveling.” Concerned about the prevalence of short-term rental apartments, which have even become hotbeds for ATM skimming crimes, the Tourism Bureau of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications is committed to ensuring the safety of travelers’ accommodations and addressing the sense of security that women seek by launching the “Anti-Short-Term Rental Annual Awards – Her Light Stay,” in collaboration with 418 high-value legal accommodations. The campaign strongly promotes the “Accommodation Passport” discount event, offering attractive deals such as 35% off room rates and just NT$500 for students with valid ID, among other great offers, calling on everyone to support legal accommodations.

Safety incidents caused by short-term rental apartments continue to occur. To safeguard the safety of travelers’ accommodations, this year’s “Anti-Short-Term Rental Annual Awards – Her Light Stay” strongly promotes two campaigns: the “Accommodation Passport” and the “Safety Monopoly.” These combine online discount activities with physical consumer participation. Accommodation providers across Taiwan have responded enthusiastically, with a total of 418 businesses joining the anti-short-term rental movement, including 128 star-rated hotels such as Taipei Fullon Hotel, Sheraton Hsinchu Hotel, Evergreen Laurel Hotel Taichung, Tai Yih Hotel, and Era Royal Hotel; as well as 66 guest-friendly homestays such as Fengchunyuan Vacation Villas, Toyota Daojia Homestay, Oweis Mountain Villa, and Migratory Birds Intertidal Zone, all offering exceptional accommodation deals to showcase the high quality and value of legal accommodations.
This “Accommodation Passport” discount campaign runs from now until October 31. You can visit the “Accommodation Passport” campaign webpage to view a variety of attractive accommodation options. After selecting your stay, visit the accommodation counter to scan the QR code and share on Facebook to redeem your accommodation discount. The 418 participating businesses offer a diverse range of benefits, catering to the needs of different groups, allowing everyone to enjoy the pleasure of domestic travel accommodations.

To help tourists better understand the concept of safe accommodations, the Tourism Bureau has also launched the “Safety Monopoly” online activity. In addition to incorporating classic Monopoly elements such as Chance and Community Chest, the game is thoughtfully designed around the safety principles upheld by women of different eras, including “Spend wisely—choose high-value accommodations,” “Spending should be about enjoyment, not suffering,” and “The most beautiful scenery in a trip is the sense of safety you give me.” From now until September 15, simply log in with your Facebook account online to get 10 game plays per day, with a chance to win great prizes such as an iPad Air2, cash rewards of NT$10,000, a Panasonic GF7 camera, and free accommodation vouchers.
The Tourism Bureau once again urges the public that to ensure safety and comfort during travel, always choose legal accommodations when going out and avoid staying in short-term rental apartments. Before booking, remember to “check the Taiwan Accommodation Network first” and “verify the accommodation license number for a safe check-in,” ensuring safe and wonderful travel memories for you and your family.
