About this newsroom
How to cover Awayday
Awayday is a collection of 60+ established local vacation rental management brands, together caring for 15,000+ homes, condos and cabins across 11 U.S. states and hosting 1,200,000+ guests a year. The story is usually the combination: brands that have run their markets for an average of 23 years, now backed by shared technology, revenue management, marketing and a support team of more than 1,200 hospitality professionals, with headquarters in Destin, Florida.
Because each brand keeps its own name, a story about a specific market is often best told through that local team. Tell us the market you're writing about and we'll connect you with the general manager who actually operates it, along with the figures behind it.
