News

Marriott recently entered the home rental market with the unveiling of Homes & Villas by Marriott International. The new offering includes more than 2,000 luxury homes across 100 destinations in the United States, Europe and Latin America. Marriott Bonvoy members are able to earn and redeem points for stays at all properties.

The official unveiling follows a 2018 pilot in European destinations. Guest experiences guided Marriott’s later selection of the accommodations offered within Homes & Villas by Marriott International. Luxury properties are specifically unique and desirable amenities, from private lakes to wood-burning ovens.

Thanks to the program, Marriott Bonvoy members have more destinations to earn and spend points, including Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast in Italy; St. Barts in the Caribbean and North Lake Tahoe, California. After each stay, the homes are professionally cleaned. Each includes 24/7 support and high-speed WiFi.

“Our approach to home rentals allows us to curate an incredible collection of homes that deliver an elevated travel experience,” said Jennifer Hsieh, vice president, Homes & Villas by Marriott International. “By working with a select group of professional management companies that understand and operate in this dynamic landscape, we are able to focus on what we do best – selecting a breadth of homes in inspiring destinations, setting standards for responsive service and designing a seamless booking experience that helps our guests navigate an increasingly complex and uncertain set of home rental choices.”
