Holiday home vs Hotel
Who are the travelers preferring vacation rentals to hotels?
Those looking for intimacy and privacy i.e. guests want they own pool or beach, they don’t want to share with any other travelers they don’t know.
People who are looking for the same comfort and space than their own home i.e. equipped kitchen, terrace, garden.
Families like vacation rental because it’s more convenient and stress-less with small children i.e. no one will give them a strange look if the baby starts crying loudly during the lunch.
Travelers who prefer to stay in a multiple bedrooms villa in Moorea by the beach than to stay in a resort, are those already living in large villa in their daily life and don’t see the point of staying in a small thatched roof bungalow while their vacation.
Tourists staying within our vacation homes are definitely not honeymooners, even if we welcome from time to time couples seeking to stay longer than 4 nights in one island. We call them adventurers, they will rent a car and do as many activities as they can and discover in deep the heart of the Island.
In general, our guests are staying one week or more, they want to take their time and not to be managed by restaurant or bars opening hours.
Renting a home can be resumed in few words :
Freedom, comfort, unique places, intimacy, calm and privacy.
