Luxury Vacation Rentals

Travel En Vogue Helps Vacationers Rent Luxury Condo Suites

— May 9, 2011 — World
Affluent vacationers have found that the secret to a low-maintenance luxury vacation can be found with Ritz Carlton- or Four Seasons-operated luxury vacation rentals.

These fractional properties allow owners to share a deeded interest in a spacious vacation condo that is regularly maintained for them, provides 5-star hotel services and is usually adjacent to a Ritz or Four Seasons resort. Owners can’t always use their time at one of their spectacular luxury vacation rentals, so they rent them out to interested parties through an agency, like Travel En Vogue. Travel En Vogue has a unique relationship with these owners, and can act as a liaison for renters who would like to stay at one of their luxury vacation rentals.

The most trendy luxury vacation rentals are the Ritz Carlton St. Thomas Residence Club, Ritz Carlton Bachelor Gulch Residence Club, Four Seasons Punta Mita Residence Club, and the brand new Ritz Carlton Vail and Four Seasons Vail Residence Club. What makes these Caribbean, Mexican and mountainside destinations so popular? Why, the extra space of a two, three, or four bedroom condo, being treated exactly as one would be in a luxury hotel, and five star resort amenities, of course.
Trend Themes
1. Luxury Vacation Rentals - Disruptive Innovation Opportunity: Develop a platform that connects vacationers with luxury vacation rentals in popular destinations.
2. Fractional Ownership - Disruptive Innovation Opportunity: Create a marketplace for fractional ownership of luxury vacation condos, allowing more people to access and enjoy these high-end properties.
3. Luxury Hotel Services - Disruptive Innovation Opportunity: Offer luxury hotel services as a standalone service for vacationers who prefer to stay in more affordable accommodations but still want to enjoy the high-end amenities and services.
Industry Implications
1. Hospitality - Disruptive Innovation Opportunity: Develop a hospitality service that specializes in managing and renting out luxury vacation rentals on behalf of owners, providing a seamless experience for both owners and renters.
2. Real Estate - Disruptive Innovation Opportunity: Create a real estate platform specifically for fractional ownership of luxury vacation properties, making it easier for individuals to invest and own a portion of these high-end condos.
3. Travel Agencies - Disruptive Innovation Opportunity: Partner with luxury vacation rental agencies to offer vacation packages that include access to exclusive properties and personalized services, catering to affluent travelers seeking unique experiences.
