Hosts & Home Teams™ is an industry-first working lab focused on bridging the gap between destination organizations and the short-term rental market. With no shared operating system currently in place, destinations are navigating complex challenges around community sentiment, regulation, promotion, and data. This event brings both sides together to collaboratively build practical frameworks and solutions that can be applied immediately at the destination level.

Join the conversation shaping the future of tourism.

The short term rental industry and destination marketing organizations clearly don’t spend enough time together. We’re changing that. 💯

We’ve been hearing a version of the same question over and over again in conversations lately with short-term rental hosts and property managers.

They want to connect with the destination. They want to use local resources. They want to create a better experience for their guests.
..But they don’t always know where to go.

So this week, we’re flipping that question around.

👉🏼 If a short-term rental host wanted to connect with your destination…would they know who to go to?

When hosts have access to the right information, resources, and connections, the visitor experience gets better, the story gets more consistent, and the destination shows up stronger.

This week we’re digging into what that connection should look like and how destinations can make it easier.

👇 Curious to hear from both sides.
If you’re a host, have you tried to connect with your local destination?
If you’re a DMO, how easy is it for hosts to plug in?

The real opportunity for destinations goes beyond just driving demand. It's evolved into building real connection.

Because the visitors who come back stay longer, spend more, and bring others with them. This week, we’re breaking down simple, practical ways destinations can stay connected after the visit. From social engagement to QR codes to email capture, we're giving you practical opportunities to turn your visitors into long-term relationships.
