Demeure

The problem with travel.

The vacation home rental and travel industry is confusing, flooded with impersonal classified listing sites or generic all-inclusive “resorts” rated on a 5 star scale. As a consumer, you’re faced with a untrusted transaction, a cramped and limited solution or a product that may or may not in fact be delivered as promised.

It begs the question, is there a benefit to having almost 1 million homes listed on a massive website with nominal search capabilities? As a traveler, does hunting and pecking through poorly presented listings in fact provide a service worth paying for?

On the other end of the spectrum there are destination clubs of various flavors and varieties. These range from incredibly expense and inventory limited destination clubs to a newer generation of long term lease destination clubs with lower membership fees but little to no ongoing competitive pricing options.

The Demeure solution.

Demeure takes into account all of the parties involved in the process and transactions for travel. That includes the property owner, management agency, local hosts and of course, the traveler(s). The ecosystem of Demeure offers the following benefits for the traveler:

An important component of Demeure is the Demeure Marketplace Listing program, designed for everyone from private owners to hoteliers, this offers a unique opportunity to get in front of frequent travelers.

The Demeure Marketplace offers the following benefits for the property owner, agency and service provider:

Demeure Club

Demeure Club members seek opportunities to live in beautiful new surroundings for a moment in time, to see the world from a different perspective. Many are property owners themselves, because they recognize the value of experiencing something authentic – rather than simply touching down for a visit. If you share these values, you’ll feel right at home in Demeure Club.

Pay with Time

Property owners will love Pay-With-Time auctions. They’re a new way to pay for travel by turning excess capacity at your property into incredible savings. Pay-With-Time auctions work the same as other Demeure auctions — with the exception that participants are bidding time, instead of cash.

Auctions

Demeure offer the ability to bid for a property at auction, you’re bidding for the right to book 1 week during any available times in the coming 18 months. A calendar on the property will clearly show what times are available, so  know how much flexibility you’ll have if you’re the winner.

These auctions are conducted in a silent, sealed-bid format instead of an open competitive environment. When the auction ends, the highest bid wins.
