Trade, travel & trends for 2025

by Angela | Mar 15, 2025

We’re always looking for ways to grow our network and knowledge to better serve our clients. This year, that meant heading to the beautiful Bahamas (we know, right) to attend the 2024 International Luxury Travel Market (ILTM) North America. This annual expo is a spectacular gathering of the best in luxury travel brands, advisors, partners and providers.

We were excited to connect with amazing potential partners like AMEX and Virtuoso, but mostly we were happy to check in on what matters most in the world of luxury travel. Here are a few takeaways:

Quality reach matters

There’s no denying it: our clients are natural explorers. That’s why we’re constantly growing our global network of premium villas and expanding our travel partnerships. Whether you’re visiting the Caribbean, Mexico, the Americas, Europe or Asia, our portfolio is designed to offer as much variety as luxury.

Quality relationships matter even more

Getting there is only part of the picture. What sets us apart is our outstanding partnerships with travel professionals around the world. For over two decades, we’ve developed and nurtured a trusted network that delivers on our exceptional standards wherever you travel. That came up again and again: travel advisors want that same transparency and trust, and it’s hard to find.

The experience is bigger than the trip

A lot of villa rental companies handle your booking and that’s it. But we’ve learned that your experience begins the moment you start thinking about a trip. After we help you find the perfect villa, our VIP Concierge works with you to shape your entire stay, from large-scale custom events to stocking everyone’s favorite ice cream. Our team is in touch with the villa team throughout, which means you can truly focus on enjoying every moment.

What else is new and exciting for 2025? Europe is experiencing a revival as a luxury destination, while a selection of new properties in Asia are causing buzz–more on that in the coming weeks. Wherever the trends (or your whims) take you, you can count on us to elevate every stay.
