Pre-pandemic, short-term rentals (STRs) seemed to answer burned-out landlords' prayers. Guests paid their money upfront, eliminating the need to evict, and homeowners could use their personal residences to earn extra income should they wish to travel or rent out individual rooms. The hotel industry quaked and pressured cities to introduce restrictions. However, STR fever was rampant. Soon, entire apartment buildings were dedicated to the vacation rental phenomenon. Everyone with a granny flat, RV, and spare room seemed to be competing for STR dollars. Would it last? Were hotels over? Inevitably, some markets became saturated, and the narrative about short-term rentals changed amongst investors. Post-pandemic, the number of vacation homes in the U.S. increased by 23.3% from October 2021-2022. That spring, at the height of the STR booking season, 80,000-88,000 new short-term rentals were added to the market monthly. Bookings dropped, and landlords fretted. Hoteliers breathed a sigh of relief. After a shaky couple of years due in part to the economic downturn, the short-term rental business is expected to grow at a stable pace. Equally, the hotel business in the U.S. is predicted to exhibit an annual growth of 3.8% (CAGR 2024-2029), with a projected market volume of $133.3 billion by 2029.

A Clare member of the Irish Hotels Federation is expressing relief for the tourist season following the conclusion of the Aer Lingus Pilots strike. The long-running pay dispute, which led to 610 flights being cancelled came to a halt yesterday after IALPA members voted to accept a 17.75% pay rise. Last year, over 70% of visitors to Clare arrived from overseas, leading to fears that protracted industrial action would have a major impact on the summer economy. Co-Owner of the Shannon Springs Hotel Dermot Kelly says the focus must now turn to providing greater marketing resources for indigenous tourism.

Gus T. rose at 7am Pacific Daylight Time this Friday morning to catch Cornell University's "Heroes and Hoteliers" presentation with black male scholars Calvin Stovall and Victor Younger. They discussed the fascinating history of black hotel owners and innovators - which even included black female entrepreneur Rebecca Howard right in here in Gus's Washington state. During the dialog, the black scholars disclosed that people classified as black constitute over 17% of the hospitality industry. However, black people represent 0.7% of the CEO positions in the hotel industry. #YIKES A whopping 2% of US hotels are owned by black people. The "Heroes and Hoteliers" dialog shared a wealth of great information - and a few metaphors to avoid directly addressing the System of White Supremacy. We also hear great illustrations of why non-white people should never expect courtesy or comradery from other non-white people in the workplace. Nor should we openly discuss our offspring with our fellow employees. Racist Suspects are not concerned about the well being of dark people - large or small, young or old. We also discuss this week's report that people classified as White average $60,000 in 401(k) retirement savings, while black people can barely muster $5,000 for the day we cease labor on the plantation. #KKKOnMyLunchBox #TheCOWS15Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#

On this week's Colombia Calling podcast, we sit down and chat with Gary Murray, a former hotelier in Colombia and compare notes on the business. Murray's experiences, on the whole, have been incredibly negative, mine on the other hand have been positive and so we look at some of the socio cultural nuances to running a business in Colombia, hear some outrageous and horrendous stories which occurred in Murray's hotel in an exclusive part of Bogota and reflect on what may have been.
