The following is the [Travel News]: TripAdvisor is trying to sell its vacation rental businesses from [Skift] recommended by TheTourAttraction.com:
The TripAdvisor brand itself in vacation rentals would not be sold outright, but the demand could be licensed.
TripAdvisor is actively trying to sell its collection of five vacation rental brands, Skift has learned. The move comes as it focuses more on its experiences, dining, hotels, and media businesses. Rentals account for a single-digit fraction of TripAdvisor’s total revenue.
TripAdvisor hired bankers, was circulating a prospectus, and conducting calls with potential buyers as of a month or so ago, according to multiple sources.
If TripAdvisor can find a buyer then the deal might include TripAdvisor’s U.S. brands FlipKey and VacationHomeRentals, Holiday Lettings, and Housetrip in the UK, as well as Spain’s Niumba.
Potential buyers could include Expedia, Booking, Airbnb, Oyo, and Vacasa, as well as local players perhaps in the UK and Spain, for example. Perhaps, too, a private equity buyer might be able to come in and try to sell pieces, or right the course.
