Connecting Destinations with Vacation Rental Properties
Charlottesville, Virginia (May 12, 2015) – Regatta Travel Solutions announced today that they have entered into a strategic partnership with LeisureLink. The new alliance will allow both companies to present a more complete solution to certain Destination Marketing Organizations (DMOs) that represent both hotels and vacation rentals.
"With so many DMO clients in the Caribbean, we have known for a long time that we need to find a solution in order to work more closely with villa and vacation rental properties," said Ashwin Kamlani, Founder & CEO of Regatta Travel Solutions. "LeisureLink has the leading private label solution for multi-property villa and vacation rental sites, so it was a natural fit. I have known their leadership team for several years now and like their way of doing business."
"We are looking forward to working with Regatta," said Jim Barsch, COO of LeisureLink. "Our solutions are truly complementary and the plan is to start collaborating on a variety of projects where the combination of LeisureLink's villa and vacation rental solution and Regatta's hotel and attractions solution will create opportunities for DMOs to serve all of their suppliers with best-in-class technology."
The first joint project will be in Barbados, Regatta's flagship DMO project. LeisureLink will step in to supercharge the villa and vacation rental component of the project, allowing visitors to VisitBarbados.org and BookBarbadosNow.com to easily book, hotels, villas, vacation rentals, attractions and bundled packages online at a much lower cost to suppliers than other third party travel websites.
