• Meanwhile, one of the rapidly-emerging trends we're seeing in the short-term rental space is the rise in bookings of RV rentals, as travellers seek to book safe and secure accommodation and at the same time travel easily to drive-to and off-the-beaten track locations. This was illustrated by KKR's $100m+ investment in rental marketplace RVshare, and we expect to see more investment in this competitive segment, with the likes of Indie Campers, Outdoorsy, Cabana and Kibbo coming to the fore.
This is something we will be exploring in more detail in our upcoming annual 2021 predictions piece, which will be published next week on ShortTermRentalz.
• International Hospitality Media [IHM], the publisher of ShortTermRentalz, has also announced the launch of a series of Urban Living Lite online and offline events, following the postponement of the inaugural Urban Living Festival until 7-8 July next year.
Building up to and during week commencing November 23rd, IHM will be hosting a series of live face-to-face events with a digital option to join from October 22nd. Click here for the full schedule.
