During peak tourist seasons, especially in hotels in Sanya, Hainan, rooms are often hard to come by. Therefore, Tujia has optimized a large number of high-quality unused homes, introducing five-star hotel management standards and services. This not only provides travelers with a temporary home away from home but also revitalizes idle properties, meeting the personalized needs of holiday travelers.
“Tujia began operations on December 1, 2011. At that time, we had forty or fifty properties. After more than a year of development, we now have over 20,000 listings nationwide and have launched an overseas site. In the future, we plan to have a reserve of over 500,000 properties. After more than a year of market validation, the Vacation Rental model introduced by Tujia has been widely welcomed by travelers, and bookings for the 2013 Spring Festival are almost full,” said Luo Jun, CEO of Tujia.com, listing the achievements in detail.
Vacation apartments offer a variety of room types, all equipped with living rooms, kitchens, and balconies. The high-end and fully equipped facilities make laundry and cooking convenient, while the homelike environment of the vacation apartments provides guests with a warm, family-like feeling and a unique experience of living like a local. Tujia was the first in China to introduce the advanced Vacation Rental model and, by combining it with local characteristics, innovatively proposed standardized offline services such as airport pick-up and in-home chef services. These thoughtful offerings have revolutionized the trend of vacation travel. After a year of effort, Tujia’s services have spread across nationally renowned tourist destinations, and through diverse and effective marketing channels, the company ensures maximum returns for property owners.
