The Vacation Rentals market in China is experiencing a significant growth trajectory driven by changing consumer preferences and evolving market dynamics.
Customer preferences: Chinese consumers are increasingly seeking unique and personalized travel experiences, opting for vacation rentals that offer a more authentic and local experience compared to traditional hotels. The demand for vacation rentals is also fueled by the growing popularity of domestic travel as more Chinese travelers explore their own country.
Trends in the market: In China, there is a noticeable trend towards the use of online platforms and mobile apps for booking vacation rentals, making it easier for travelers to find and secure accommodation. Additionally, the rise of short-term rental platforms and the sharing economy has led to a proliferation of vacation rental listings across various cities in China.
Local special circumstances: The regulatory environment in China plays a crucial role in shaping the vacation rental market. Government policies and restrictions on short-term rentals in certain cities have influenced the operations of vacation rental hosts and platforms. Additionally, cultural factors such as the importance of family travel and group accommodations impact the types of vacation rentals preferred by Chinese travelers.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: The rapid urbanization and expanding middle-class population in China have contributed to the growth of the vacation rental market. As disposable incomes increase, more Chinese consumers are willing to spend on travel experiences, including accommodation options beyond traditional hotels. Moreover, the rise of domestic tourism and the development of transportation infrastructure have made travel more accessible, driving the demand for vacation rentals across the country.

This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.Forecasts:
In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, ARIMA, which allows time series forecasts, accounting for stationarity of data and enabling short-term estimates.
