I’ve never seen so many people excited over travel in my life than right now. Is it the eagerness to recover from lockdowns and travel bans brought on by the pandemic? Absolutely. But it’s more than that, too. Just as society has become more diverse, outspoken, and complex, travel has shifted from being work-related or a rare leisurely opportunity, to a whole lifestyle. We see it the most in lodging accommodations. How we stay is just as important as how we go, and what we do. Lodging has transformed into a multidimensional space meant for true comfort. It’s a home away from home. Homes & Villas by Marriott International is the perfect example of this.

What’s Homes & Villas by Marriott International?

Launched in 2019, Homes & Villas by Marriott International is a global home rental prioritizing luxury and premium rental homes. Marriott partners with carefully selected professional home management companies to ensure an experience that’s cohesive with a standard expected by Marriott International.

But Why Homes?

As I said, travel has changed. People are eager to plant roots … on the go. They’re looking to experience a new city, culture, body of water, and mountain, by way of immersion. When you stay in a home, you can connect with the area as if you’re living there. A home begs for you to stay longer. It asks you to spread out. It encourages you to invite family and friends. It offers the opportunity to have routine when you need it, while turning a dream lifestyle into a reality.

Guests who book with Homes & Villas by Marriott International can expect to choose from an exciting array of private homes, including beachfront bungalows, sprawling villas, grand chateaus, cozy cabins, ski chalets, and characterful townhouses, flats, apartments and penthouses. There’s castles, too.

How Is It Different Than Other Home Rental Offerings?

Marriott has been in the hospitality business since 1927, so you can expect a seamless experience with highly-curated offerings. Marriott only works with professional management companies that offer premium and luxury private home inventory. Each home is evaluated, either in person or digitally, before it’s listed on their website.

And perhaps the most exciting part that sets Homes & Villas by Marriott International apart is that you can earn and redeem points with Marriott Bonvoy with every stay.
