The Champagne Shores six-bedroom oceanfront villa in Anguilla Unlike their cheaper and trendy competition, Airbnb, the Marriott property and hotel group will be expanding their brand into the home rental market with the launch of Homes & Villas by Marriott International. These property listings, numbering in the thousands, will allow guests to feel at home with the freedom and space to roam the property and bring along some family and friends too. The properties are all luxury or premium listings, including Champagne Shores, a six-bedroom oceanfront villa in Anguilla in the Caribbean. Others include: – A four-bedroom cottage with two and a half green hectares in the Californian wine region – An Italian villa in Sorrento (six-bedroom) – An 18th-century Irish castle with private lake for boating and fishing (17-sleeper) – A six-bedroom London townhouse with a unique climbing wall (which is also child-friendly). This new luxurious offering will launch next week, and anyone with a big family and a hankering for any one of these global getaways will be able to view the properties online and book via the Marriott website for now, and after next week via the Homes & Villas site. Members of the Marriott Bonvoy loyalty programme will also be able to earn points when they book a Homes & Villas rental.
