According to Market Research Intellect, the luxury rental market is booming, valued at $19.5 billion in 2024 and projected to reach $30.11 billion by 2031. This impressive growth, with a 6.4% annual expansion rate, indicates that high-end travelers are increasingly choosing luxury rentals over traditional accommodations. For property managers and hosts, this trend presents significant opportunities to cater to the rising demand for upscale, private spaces.
To help industry leaders capitalize on this growth, Sirreti is hosting a two-day gathering in New York, dedicated to the luxury travel and rental market. This event is set to be the year’s largest in the high-end travel sector
Sirreti: A Private Networking Hub for Luxury Vacation Rentals
The Sirreti Group was established to support the international luxury and ultra-luxury vacation rental sectors. With over 25 years of collective industry experience, the group provides a robust networking hub that includes ongoing education, professional development, and a series of global events. The Sirreti List, their latest initiative, serves as an accreditation system that rigorously assesses vacation rental properties to ensure they meet exceptional standards of luxury and service.
At the start of 2024, we had the pleasure of interviewing Wolf Worster, CEO and Founder of Sirreti, who shared insights on what truly defines luxury in private accommodations and provided a valuable understanding of the spending behaviors and expectations of today’s affluent travelers.
