EDITOR'S COMMENT
18•01•21 Welcome to the new-look ShortTermRentalz newsletter!
• After the turbulence of 2020, Rentals United CEO James Burrows' words of wisdom on "Strategic areas to boost business success in 2021" is a must-read for all property managers to analyse the latest industry trends and strategise for the year ahead.
The challenges we have faced over the last ten months have showcased the resilience and adaptability of hospitality professionals, and there is now light at the end of the tunnel with the rollout of vaccines. As a result, the businesses most likely to succeed will be those that harness the ability to diversify, be flexible, and be intelligent, according to Burrows.
Therefore, the announcement that a $1.5bn mega-resort is under development on the outskirts of Walt Disney World in Orlando, will be welcome news to everyone in the rental industry after a year of restrictions and closures, but also growing popularity over hotels.
The resort, complete with villas, an upscale hotel, and an 18-hole golf course, aims to "change the landscape of vacation rental homes", anchored on a promise to offer hotel-quality standards and luxury amenities. With family and multi-generational travel set to surge as travel confidence returns post-Covid, innovative accommodation providers such as Evermore, which have a diverse range of offerings, will prosper because they cater to all guest preferences and are found in desirable, convenient locations.
