THE SHORTYZ
In early 2022, we entered the international Shortyz Awards, which brings together short-let industry leaders from around the world.
We were nominated for outstanding staycation, marketing and social media achievements across the year, winning gold in the ‘most effective use of social media’ category for our #beachoutofhours campaign.
All about making the most of the beach before and after work, this marketing campaign encouraged participants to get out and discover their regular, or not so regular beach out of hours, and share a photo of their favourite golden hour moment.
