According to the 2024 Booking.com Sustainability Survey, 75% of global travelers want to make more eco-friendly travel choices in the next 12 months. However, 43% admit to feeling guilty when their choices fall short. This reveals a growing trend: while there’s a demand for sustainability, travelers still struggle to act on it—unless the choice is made easy for them.
That’s exactly the challenge StayWise Rentals is facing this week. As competitors successfully market their eco-friendly rentals and attract sustainability-conscious travelers, StayWise is falling behind. Their properties are energy inefficient, their waste management is outdated, and they haven’t figured out how to make sustainability work without breaking the bank.
Enter Bob Garner—a sustainability expert and founder of EnviroRental—who joins Heather Bayer to help StayWise Rentals navigate their sustainability crisis. Bob brings decades of experience in vacation rental sustainability and shares practical, no-nonsense advice for property managers who want to future-proof their businesses while keeping costs in check.
