In a strategic move that bridged boutique extended-stay luxury with global loyalty rewards, VacayHome Connect partnered with Onni Group’s Level to bring their premium vacation rentals into the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy ecosystem. 

The Players: Expertise Meets Scale 

VacayHome Connect: A powerhouse in vacation rental distribution, VacayHome Connect supports professional managers offering 45,000+ homes globally. Excelling at multi-channel syndication, high-quality content curation, revenue optimization, targeted marketing, and 24/7 U.S. based guest support keeping experiences personal and flawless. 

Level: Design-forward, fully furnished suites and apartments for nightly and extended stays. Level properties feature full kitchens, in-suite laundry, private balconies, resort-inspired amenities (pools, gyms, rooftop dining), and hotel-style services in walkable urban hotspots like Chicago (River North, Fulton Market, Old Town), Los Angeles (Downtown & Hollywood), Long Beach, Seattle (South Lake Union), and Vancouver. 

These aren’t typical vacation rentals — they’re upscale, apartment-style havens perfect for business travelers, relocators, or leisure guests wanting sleek, contemporary spaces without sacrificing convenience. 

Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy extends Marriott’s 95+ years of hospitality into the realm of premium private accommodations. Guests earn and redeem Bonvoy points on stays in curated homes and now extended-stay suites, blending loyalty perks with residential flexibility. 

The Challenge: Premium Inventory, Untapped Loyalty Audience 

Level’s properties delivered exceptional quality and amenities, but reaching Marriott Bonvoy’s millions of members — who prioritize quality and service while earning points — required better visibility and seamless integration with the Marriott program. 

Traditional vacation rental booking channels offer reach but lack the ability to reach the loyal and high-value traveler that Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy delivers. Level needed a way to tap this audience without building new tech or handling extra guest logistics. 

The solution? A reliable connectivity layer that maintains strict quality, syncs inventory flawlessly, and upholds elevated service standards.

The Solution: Strategic Connectivity Partnership 

VacayHome Connect stepped in as the bridge, integrating Level’s portfolio into the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy platform as a curated, professional-managed collection. 

 

 

Key elements include: 

• Direct integration for real-time sync of availability, rates, and rich property content 
• Rigorous listing curation to meet Marriott’s quality benchmarks (professional photos, detailed descriptions, no generic imagery) 
• Guests ability to book, earn and redeem Bonvoy points on Level properties directly via homesandvillasbymarriott.com 
• Properties positioned as premium urban extended-stay options, appealing to families, remote workers, and loyalty members seeking space over standard rooms 

This brought Level’s standout one, two and three bedroom suites with full kitchens and city views to a new, high value audience overnight. 

As Sean Kane, Corporate Director of Revenue Management for the ONNI GROUP, put it: “By partnering with VacayHome Connect and Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy, we have aligned with industry leaders to set a new standard for world-class guest experiences. With VacayHome Connect’s professionalism, easy onboarding process, knowledgeable and responsive team, we completely trust them as a partner.”

The Results: Triple Wins Across the Board 

For Guests 

Marriott Bonvoy Members gain access to stylish urban suites with home comforts (kitchens, laundry, balconies) while earning points on stays that match their trip intent. A longer Chicago business trip or Seattle family getaway becomes rewarding in every sense. 

Most impressive is that Bonvoy members love these properties based on 2026 YTD’s unbeatable 100% Intent to Recommend Score 

For Level  

Properties tap into Marriott’s massive, affluent loyalty base without added marketing effort. This boosts occupancy, especially for extended stays, and elevates brand perception through association with a global hospitality leader. 

Room Revenue $725K+; Average Length of Stay 6.31; Average Transaction Rate $2.34K 

Nearly 40% of all bookings came from the Top 3 Bonvoy Tiers: Platinum, Titanium and Ambassador

“Bonvoy Members are the kind of guests we want to host. They have higher expectations, which our brand easily fulfills, rebook often and regularly extend their stays. While they are a bit less price sensitive, adding promotions through VacayHome Connect has truly been a game changer” – Sean Kane, Corporate Director of Revenue Management 

For the Brand & Ecosystem 

Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy expands its urban offerings adding exceptional vacation rentals with professional, amenity-rich extended-stay options — strengthening its position as the go-to for loyalty guests wanting variety beyond traditional hotels.
