Leading full-service luxury villa company Rental Escapes is celebrating the second anniversary of its travel advisor REwards program.

Launched in 2023, the program offers one-of-a-kind rewards for advisors that include points for every dollar booked that can be redeemed toward their own personal villa vacation. More than 50 million points have been issued to date with more than 75 travel advisors completing the full rewards journey.

“We created our innovative REwards program to give back to the travel advisor community that plays such a vital role in our success,” said Willie Fernandez, chief marketing officer of Rental Escapes. “It’s incredibly rewarding to see advisors taking advantage of the points they’ve earned to relax, explore new destinations, and experience our product firsthand.”

Travel advisors enrolled in the REwards program and redeemed points for villa vacations have experienced stays at sought-after destinations in the Caribbean and Europe to include luxury villas like Arrecife Royale in Punta Cana, a nine-bedroom and bath property accommodating up to 20 guests with upscale perks such as a private chef, housekeeper and butler service.

In addition to generous commissions on every booking and exclusive seasonal promotions, the REwards program offers travel advisors a powerful selling tool – firsthand product experience. Staying in the same luxury villas they’ve book for clients enables advisors to offer more personalized, informed recommendations – helping to elevate the guest experience even further.

Travel advisors who sign up as preferred partners through the Rental Escapes website are automatically enrolled in the REwards program and begin collecting points immediately with each booking. In addition, travel advisors receive quarterly updates with their total accumulated points, which can be used anytime and never expire.
