About Short-Term Rentals Asia (STRA)

Short-term rentals are growing rapidly across Asia, yet the sector remains fragmented across markets and categories.  Operators, platforms, and regulators are often progressing in parallel with limited shared visibility and  STRA is a neutral platform supporting the professionalisation of short-term rentals across Asia through research, trust, education, partnerships and industry collaboration. 

For years, Asia was often treated as a side discussion within global short-term rental conversations.

• Yet Asia is not a single market.
• Different ownership structures.
• Different operating models.
• Different regulatory environments.
• Different hospitality traditions.
• Different challenges.
