Short-term rental developers capitalize on US domestic travel boom
Driven by inflation and international travel complexities, U.S. domestic travel surges, with Miami attracting families to amenity-rich, short-term rental properties.
The domestic travel landscape in the U.S. has seen a significant surge, driven by inflation and the increasing complications of international travel. Families, particularly those with young children, are opting for “easier” travel alternatives. This trend has made professionally managed short-term rental, equipped with family-friendly amenities, a top choice for those seeking a home-away-from-home experience.
With domestic travel on the rise, Miami – renowned for its year-round appeal – stands ready to welcome an influx of travelers seeking a relaxing, refined, and coastal escape. The city’s perennial vacation atmosphere, coupled with its sophisticated accommodations and vibrant cultural scene, makes it a top destination for those looking to enjoy an elevated travel experience without venturing abroad.
Highly amenitized short-term rental properties with conveniences like booking services, professional cleanings, and concierge services are now seen as a hassle-free alternative to traditional accommodations. This shift is especially pronounced during peak vacation seasons like the summer, when outdoor and family-oriented amenities become essential. Spacious pools, summer kitchens, outdoor theaters, game rooms, and luxury playgrounds are just some of the features attracting families looking for a comprehensive vacation experience without the challenges of long-haul travel.
Edgardo Defortuna, CEO of Fortune International Group, and the visionary behind Nexo Residences in North Miami Beach, has been quick to capitalize on this trend. Recognizing the demand for family-friendly, highly functional vacation properties, Defortuna and his team have incorporated a wide range of amenities aimed at making Nexo Residences an ideal destination for both owners and renters.
The development is professionally managed to ensure a seamless experience. From bookings to cleanings and concierge services, every detail is taken care of. Families can enjoy a wide range of offerings catering to every age group. A two-story tech hub complete with a café, coworking spaces, and a business center allows parents to stay connected, while children can play at an outdoor playground or gather for games in the multipurpose clubroom.
For health-conscious teens, a fitness center with a yoga studio and virtual trainer provides ample options for staying active. Meanwhile, families can bond over movie nights at the outdoor theater or indulge in family dinners prepared in the summer kitchens. With fire pits for roasting marshmallows and serene sunset views, Nexo Residences promises an unforgettable family getaway.
Situated in the booming North Miami Beach neighborhood, Nexo Residences also offers easy access to parks, universities, offices, shops, and dining, making it the perfect location for domestic travelers seeking convenience and comfort.
Similarly, ELLE Residences Miami, developed by Vertical Development and Urban Network Capital Group, has crafted its spaces with the modern domestic traveler in mind. For those seeking a European experience without the hassle of traveling abroad, the project offers a slice of the French Riviera right in the heart of Edgewater, Miami. Every aspect of the property, from its sophisticated interiors to its luxurious amenities, transports owners and guests to the elegance of coastal France.
The European influence at ELLE Residences Miami is evident in the meticulously designed spaces. Chevron-patterned flooring evokes the charm of a classic Parisian apartment, while wood, black metal, and glass panel elements channel the timeless style of a French bistro. Whether relaxing by the pool or enjoying the curated artwork throughout the building, residents are immersed in an upscale, European ambiance that perfectly complements the vibrant Miami lifestyle.
