Left Travel, an industry leading metasearch travel company, is proud to announce its two newest websites, BedroomVillas UK and BedroomVillas Australia, to its growing portfolio.

Established to service the North American market in 2013, BedroomVillas connects travelers to the world’s best luxury villas, beach houses, and vacation rentals with a single search. As one of Left Travel’s most successful brands, the metrics showed that it was poised well for international expansion.

“We are excited to announce the launch of our two newest localized websites marking our team’s focus on continued global expansion,” said Ashely Joslin, Business Director of Left Travel. “Data informs every aspect of our business, which is why we are confident in the UK and Australian markets for corporate growth.”

Australia and the UK were selected after market research and user data analysis collected through Left Travel’s 14 meta sites. Key considerations and metrics included: growth of digital travel sales by country, the percentage of total population spending at least 5 days on vacation annually, and time spent on travel research.

The Australian market was of special interest to the company due to the seasonal nature of online accommodation bookings. With the low booking seasons traditionally occuring in the fall and spring in North America and Europe, Australian booking trends are the opposite. The launch of a localized Australian website provides Left Travel with constant growth during previously slow months.

Backed by market growth data, strong regional inventory partners, and proven meta search tools, Left Travel is excited to expand its reach and provide localized user value into the UK and Australian markets with one of its most successful brands, BedroomVillas.
