PARSIPPANY, N.J., June 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Wyndham
Vacation Rentals, the world's largest professional manager of
vacation rental properties and part of the Wyndham Worldwide family
of brands (NYSE: WYN), announced that it has acquired Vacation Palm
Springs. The addition of the Palm
Springs-based company, which manages more than 450 upscale
vacation properties, marks Wyndham Vacation Rentals' first entry
into California.
"Vacation Palm Springs is an ideal fit for our business, and we
are thrilled to welcome the company to the Wyndham Vacation Rentals
family," said Mary Lynn Clark,
president, Wyndham Vacation Rentals North America. "Through this
acquisition, we have added Southern
California to the growing list of popular destinations that
we offer to travelers and have once again enhanced our growing
rental portfolio in the U.S. In addition, Vacation Palm Springs'
dedication to delivering a quality experience to guests aligns well
with our own service pledge, the Vacation Rental Bill of
Rights®, which provides peace-of-mind that can't be
found when booking directly from an owner and assures renters that
their most common expectations will be met."

a leader in the California
professionally-managed vacation rental market, attracting guests
from throughout the state and nearby metro areas including
Los Angeles and San Diego. The company maintains a diverse
selection of privately-owned luxury homes and condos in popular
desert area resort cities, including Palm
Springs, Palm Desert,
Rancho Mirage and La Quinta. Vacation Palm Springs offers options for a variety of
travelers from those seeking a celebrity-like experience to
families traveling with pets to large groups looking for a
multi-bedroom home where they can vacation together under one
roof.
"Wyndham Vacation Rentals is the perfect partner," said
Rob Kincaid, co-founder of Vacation
Palm Springs. "Its scale creates additional momentum in the
vacation home experience for our valued guests, homeowner clients
and our local associates who will continue to be based in
Palm Springs."
