Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group has launched a branded collection of private villas and mansions in partnership with luxury home rental platform StayOne.
The initial selection of Mandarin Oriental Exclusive Homes are located in destinations throughout Europe and include the South of France and Mallorca.
Mandarin Oriental had previously made an undisclosed investment in StayOne back in December 2020.
The new offering will include a dedicated personal concierge service and private, on-demand culinary experiences
Mandarin Oriental’s move into holiday rentals follows similar decisions by the likes of Marriott, Accor and Four Seasons.
What They Said
James Riley, CEO of Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, said: “We are excited to be extending the Mandarin Oriental brand to new ventures and to be introducing new experiences to our Fans around the world. These handpicked luxurious homes fit naturally into our portfolio and their locations provide opportunities for our guests to combine a hotel visit with a villa stay and explore more of the destination in different ways – but all with the assurance of the Mandarin Oriental reputation. We look forward to working with StayOne to identify many more perfect homes to include in the collection.”
Thomas Bennett, co-founder, StayOne, said: “Our home-owner members already provide the very best of luxury homes around the world, but our collaboration with Mandarin Oriental has created a unique offering in the luxury villa market. Mandarin Oriental is a globally respected and trusted brand delivering legendary service and bespoke experiences and will be the first luxury hotel group to extend their offering to the private home environment and provide a tailored holiday experience for guests.”
