WHY IT RATES: The rewards points toward villa vacations are on top of commissions for bookings in addition to bonus commissions offered throughout the year.—Patrick Clarke, TravelPulse Senior Editor


Rental Escapes, a full-service luxury villa company specializing in providing unparalleled private villa rentals worldwide, is celebrating the one-year anniversary of its innovative travel advisor rewards program, sharing key achievements from the program’s inaugural year.

The rewards program is the first of its kind, tailored to support and enhance the travel advisor community by offering advisors the opportunity to earn complimentary villa vacations. Advisors earn rewards points for each $1 booked, which can then be used toward their own villa vacation with Rental Escapes. To date, advisors have been rewarded with millions of points through the program.

“We are thrilled to celebrate the one-year anniversary of our rewards program and reflect on its tremendous success over the past year,” said Willie Fernandez, chief marketing officer of Rental Escapes. “We built our rewards program to demonstrate our profound gratitude for the invaluable support of our dedicated travel advisor partners. As we continue to evolve and expand our offerings, we remain committed to empowering travel advisors with the tools, support and rewards they need to thrive in today’s competitive landscape."

Over the past year, the travel advisor rewards program has attracted participation from advisors who have redeemed their rewards points for incredible villa vacations. Several advisors have already taken trips to sought-after destinations like The Caribbean and Europe, immersing themselves in the personalized villa experiences that Rental Escapes offers their clients.

“Rental Escapes' travel advisor rewards program has greatly incentivized the way I approach my business," said Brando Quinn with Avoya Travel. "The program's tangible benefits, coupled with Rental Escapes’ tailored marketing tools for success, have streamlined my booking process and elevated the level of service I offer to my clients. It's a true partnership that empowers me to curate unforgettable experiences for my clients while maximizing my earning potential and boosting my own opportunities for personal travel. It’s a testament to how much they truly value the travel advisor community."

The rewards program is offered in addition to the commission advisors earn on all bookings and the bonus commission opportunities Rental Escapes offers throughout the year. Travel advisors who have registered as a preferred partner on the Rental Escapes website will automatically receive reward points. Quarterly updates via email will inform advisors of the number of points in their account.  Most importantly, their points will never expire.
