Asians ditch hotels for luxury homes, yachts and tree houses
As luxury travel diversifies in the region, we look at unique retreats from Asia?s hectic crowds
Non-hotel accommodation (NHAs) is growing in popularity among Asian travellers as homes become exclusive alternatives to hotel rooms, a new study shows.
The Travel&Tech Study published by Agoda, a major online hotel booking website, found Asian travellers generally prefer to book homestays while travelling domestically, but are more likely to book privately owned homes or apartments when travelling to neighbouring countries.
According to the survey looking at the booking habits of more than 16,000 people aged 18 to 64 across 15 countries, private homes are among the favourites of travellers from Singapore (44 per cent), Malaysia (40 per cent) and Australia (38 per cent). Indonesian travellers like to book villas (37 per cent) and guest houses (36 per cent), while 31 per cent of Thai travellers book villas and 32 per cent book guest houses, the study said.
Agoda?s website ? connecting travellers to a huge array of private homes worldwide ? includes a list of extraordinary NHAs across Asia, from luxury yachts to private villas.
