Marriott has officially launched its highly-anticipated luxury home sharing program.

While the program includes more than 2,000 luxury homes and villas around the world, it also includes a presence in the Caribbean.

For now, that includes homes in Anguilla; The Bahamas; Barbados; the Dominican Republic; Grand Cayman; Jamaica; St Barth; Saint Lucia; St John and Saint Martin.

And the emphasis is indeed on luxury;

For example, Marriott’s collection of luxury villas in Jamaica ranges from a $1062 per night villa in Trelawny to an eight-bedroom estate for $5,228 per night.

In St Barth, on the other hand, the company has just one villa, a four-bedroom villa near Gustavia, as a point of reference.

Crucially, Marriott’s Bonvoy loyalty program members will be able to redeem points for stays at such properties.
