Regarding this type of travelers, we must emphasize that as the president of the European Tourist Housing Association (EHHA) Carlos Villaró has indicated, the new market niche that has opened and promoted the pandemic is that of digital nomads, he explained that
“The holiday home sector is the one that has recovered the fastest, generating greater confidence in tourists and inspiring greater security.”
In this sense, he pointed out that three years ago 70% of Europeans had not stayed in a rental house on their vacations and now this panorama has completely changed. In addition, the health crisis has opened the ecosystem of teleworking «. Villaró has estimated at more than 25 million beds that this sector contributes in Europe and has warned that “this industry is going to grow even more due to the needs of digital nomads”. For this reason, it has defended the need to establish global regulations at European level, in which it has advanced that they already work hand in hand with the EU.
These new changes lead us to adjust to all and adapt to the new standards of life; the accommodations will have to adapt to the requests of the guests, which nowadays is linked to technology.
