What you’ll learn in this episode:

For more than a decade, companies like Airbnb and Vrbo have provided travelers with the opportunity to stay in homes or condominiums, which are bigger and often more family-friendly than hotel rooms. Although they certainly have benefits, guests tend to miss the service and amenities hotels and resorts provide. So can resort luxuries also be found in rental condos or homes?  

As a tourism and hospitality industry leader, Nicholas Falcone‘s company has filled a gap in the market and solved a problem for both travelers and those who list properties on Airbnb and Vrbo. When guests stay at his NDM Hospitality branded resorts, they enjoy spacious accommodations with access to amenities, including concierges, spas, golf courses, and restaurants. What’s more, Nicholas says developers and investors find short-term rentals tend to generate more revenue than long-term ones.
