## MCP tools (14)

### `search_trips` (~223 tokens)

Search 2,000+ Virtuoso hotels, plus packages, cruises and private experiences, by place, brand or kind of stay. Results show whether Virtuoso perks apply, a trip_id for get_trip_details, and how to book. No live rates: the advisor quotes them.

Input parameters:

- `budget_usd` (number): Max budget in USD
- `check_in` (string): Check-in date (ISO 8601)
- `check_out` (string): Check-out date (ISO 8601)
- `destination` (string): A city, region or country ("Paris", "Tuscany", "Caribbean"), a hotel or brand ("Four Seasons"), both ("Four Seasons Paris"), or a kind of stay ("beach", "safari")
- `limit` (integer): Results per page, up to 50 (default 10)
- `offset` (integer): Results to skip, for the next page
- `trip_type` (string): hotel_only (the default), fixed_package, cruise, service (private experiences) or custom_itinerary

### `get_trip_details` (~77 tokens)

Get the details of a hotel, package, cruise or private experience from search_trips, with a hotel's Virtuoso perks. Virtuoso records carry no published rate or availability; the advisor quotes those in writing within 24 hours.

Input parameters:

- `trip_id` (string, required): trip_id from search_trips, or a hotel's virtuoso_property_id

### `check_complexity` (~61 tokens)

Check whether a request goes straight to Geisel Power, the Virtuoso advisor, for a quote (hotel stays always do).

Input parameters:

- `num_nights` (number)
- `num_travelers` (number)
- `trip_id` (string, required)

### `create_booking` (~120 tokens)

Get the steps to book a hotel, cruise or experience found with search_trips. Geisel Power, the Virtuoso advisor, quotes it in writing within 24 hours (rate, taxes, the hotel's cancellation policy and the perks) and books only after the traveler approves. This tool sends nothing itself (request_sent: false). Hotel bookings carry no fee and nothing is charged by Stay Perks: the traveler pays the hotel directly.

Input parameters:

- `num_nights` (number)
- `traveler_info` (object, required)
- `trip_id` (string, required)

### `get_booking_status` (~25 tokens)

Check the status of an existing booking

Input parameters:

- `booking_id` (string, required)

### `cancel_booking` (~55 tokens)

Cancel a booking request. A confirmed hotel reservation is cancelled with the hotel under its own cancellation policy, which comes with the quote and the confirmation.

Input parameters:

- `booking_id` (string, required)
- `reason` (string): Reason for cancellation

### `request_itinerary` (~539 tokens)

WRITE. Send Geisel Power, the Virtuoso advisor, the traveler's request for a Journey (Journeys by Geisel Power: a whole trip she plans, books and confirms, usually from about $15,000 to $20,000) or a hotel stay (Stay Perks Reserve, no minimum). Call it only after the traveler has agreed to share their name, email and trip details with Geisel Power, and set traveler_consented to true. Returns a reference and what happens next: Geisel replies to a Journeys request the same day, with the full proposal after a discovery call, and to a hotel request in writing within 24 hours; some requests also get a link to book a 30-minute call with her (call_url). Nothing is booked or charged. Hotel bookings carry no fee and the traveler pays the hotel directly; a Journey carries a planning fee, which depends on the trip's length and complexity and which Geisel explains on the discovery call.

Input parameters:

- `destinations` (string): Where: places, regions or hotels ("Amalfi Coast, Lake Como")
- `email` (string, required): The traveler's email: Geisel replies there
- `flexibility` (string): How flexible the dates are: exact (Exact dates), few-days (A few days either way), month (Any time in a month), open (Open, advise me)
- `kind` (string): journey (the default): a whole trip Geisel designs; hotel: a hotel stay only
- `name` (string, required): The traveler's full name
- `notes` (string): Anything else the traveler wants Geisel to know
- `occasion` (string): What the trip is for: anniversary (Anniversary or honeymoon), birthday (A milestone birthday), family (Family or multigenerational trip), celebration (Another celebration), business (Business with so…
- `travel_dates` (string): When ("10 to 20 May 2027", "late spring")
- `traveler_consented` (boolean, required): true, and only once the traveler has agreed to share these details with Geisel Power
- `travelers` (string): Who is traveling ("2 adults, 1 child")
- `trip_budget` (string): The whole trip's budget in USD, for a Journey: under-15k (Under $15,000), 15k-20k ($15,000 to $20,000), 20k-50k ($20,000 to $50,000), 50k-plus ($50,000 or more). No budget is needed for a hotel stay

### `search_availability` (~209 tokens)

Request a stay quote (Virtuoso perks)

WRITE. Ask Geisel Power, the Virtuoso advisor, to price a stay at a Virtuoso hotel (property_id from search_trips). Virtuoso data carries no live rates, so pricing is asynchronous: this returns a quote id with status "pending" and a quote_due_by time (within 24 hours); poll get_availability_quote. A firm offer includes the full total, taxes and fees, the hotel's cancellation policy, and the Virtuoso amenities (e.g. breakfast for two, a hotel credit, an upgrade, subject to availability). Nothing is reserved or charged by this call, and hotel bookings carry no fee.

Input parameters:

- `adults` (integer, required): Number of adults
- `children` (integer): Number of children
- `end_date` (string, required): Check-out date, YYYY-MM-DD
- `property_id` (string, required): Virtuoso property id (virtuoso_property_id) from search_trips
- `start_date` (string, required): Check-in date, YYYY-MM-DD

### `get_availability_quote` (~80 tokens)

Check a stay quote

READ. Returns the status of a quote from search_availability: "pending" (try again later), "quoted" (offers with stay_id, full total, cancellation terms), "unavailable", or "expired". Use an offer's stay_id with create_booking_session.

Input parameters:

- `quote_id` (string, required): Quote id returned by search_availability

### `create_booking_session` (~136 tokens)

Start a booking (UCP lodging)

WRITE. Opens a UCP lodging booking session from a quoted offer (stay_id from get_availability_quote). Returns the authoritative total, the cancellation policy (show it to the traveler), the Virtuoso amenities, the payment term (pay at the hotel) and evidence. Nothing is charged; the session is held until the quote expires.

Input parameters:

- `adults` (integer)
- `booker` (object): Lead traveler (legal name + email). Without it the session stays "incomplete".
- `children` (integer)
- `property_id` (string, required)
- `stay_id` (string, required): stay_id of a quoted offer

### `get_booking_session` (~66 tokens)

Check a booking

READ. Current state of a booking session: ready_for_complete (awaiting the traveler's approval), complete_in_progress (the advisor is placing the reservation), completed (includes the hotel's own confirmation number; the traveler is also emailed), or canceled.

Input parameters:

- `session_id` (string, required)

### `update_booking_session` (~61 tokens)

Update a booking before payment

WRITE. Change occupancy (within the quote) or set the booker before completing. Not allowed after completion.

Input parameters:

- `adults` (integer)
- `booker` (object)
- `children` (integer)
- `session_id` (string, required)

### `complete_booking_session` (~111 tokens)

Book it (requires the traveler's approval)

SENSITIVE WRITE — get the traveler's explicit approval of the full total and the hotel's cancellation policy first. Asks Geisel Power to place the reservation. No payment is taken: the traveler pays the hotel directly under its own terms, and hotel bookings carry no fee. Returns complete_in_progress with a confirmation deadline (within 24 hours); poll get_booking_session for the hotel's confirmation number, which is also emailed to the traveler.

Input parameters:

- `booker` (object, required)
- `session_id` (string, required)

### `cancel_booking_session` (~53 tokens)

Cancel a booking before hotel confirmation

SENSITIVE WRITE. Withdraws a booking before the hotel confirms it (the advisor is told). Confirmed reservations are cancelled with the hotel under its cancellation policy, through the advisor.

Input parameters:

- `session_id` (string, required)

## Common questions

### What is the Stay Perks MCP server?

Stay Perks is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.staysperks/stay-perks. Virtuoso luxury hotels with perks included: search 2,000+, get a quote, book. Pay hotels directly. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://staysperks.com/mcp).

### Is the Stay Perks MCP server safe to use?

Stay Perks scores 70 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Stay Perks MCP server expose?

Stay Perks exposes 14 tools: search_trips, get_trip_details, check_complexity, create_booking, get_booking_status, and 9 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,816 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the Stay Perks MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to Stay Perks without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the Stay Perks MCP server still maintained?

Stay Perks is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Stay Perks MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 13 checks on Stay Perks, covering TLS certificate, Authorization, HTTPS, HSTS header and 9 more. Supply Chain Security and Provenance & Transparency do not apply to a hosted endpoint, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
