DMOs Need More Than Reports.
You Need a Clear View of What’s Happening.

Most property managers are stuck reacting instead of leading.

You’re balancing board expectations, tourism growth, stakeholder pressure, event planning, marketing performance, and community impact, often without a complete picture of your lodging market.

DestinationData helps you answer the questions that matter most:
  • Are bookings pacing ahead or behind last year?
  • What markets are driving our visitors?
  • How are vacation rentals and hotels performing together?
  • Which events are impacting occupancy?
  • Where should we focus marketing spend?
  • Are visitors staying longer or shortening trips?
  • How is tourism changing across neighborhoods?
  • How do we communicate tourism performance clearly to stakeholders?
With KeyData, you stop relying on assumptions and start operating with confidence.

Why DMOs Choose KeyData

Direct-source accuracy

That means better visibility into:
  • Real occupancy trends
  • Actual booking pace
  • Forward-looking demand shifts
  • Visitor behavior patterns
  • Feeder market trends
  • Market-wide lodging performance
  • Neighborhood-level tourism activity
  • Hotel and vacation rental benchmarking

Frequently Asked Questions

How is KeyData different from CoStar (Smith Travel Research)?

KeyData provides a complete destination lodging view, not just part of the story.

While CoStar (Smith Travel) is primarily known for hotel performance data, KeyData combines both hotel and vacation rental data in a single platform, allowing destination organizations to understand total lodging demand across their market. DMOs can benchmark performance, track visitor trends, and analyze occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, booking pace, and feeder markets across all lodging types in one dashboard.

This gives destination leaders a more complete understanding of tourism performance and visitor behavior.

How is KeyData different from AirDNA?

The biggest difference is data quality and data sources.

AirDNA primarily relies on publicly available listing data from online travel platforms. KeyData combines responsibly collected OTA data with the industry's largest verified direct-source vacation rental dataset and hotel data.

Because KeyData receives data directly from property management systems and channel managers, destinations gain visibility into actual reservations, revenue, occupancy, booking windows, and pacing, not just estimated market activity.

Why is direct-source data so important?

Direct-source data reflects real bookings made by real guests.

Direct-source data comes directly from property management systems and hotel reservation systems, providing verified reservation and revenue information. Scraped data helps expand market visibility, but direct-source data adds the accuracy and confidence needed for strategic decision-making.

For DMOs, this means more reliable reporting, stronger stakeholder trust, and greater confidence when making marketing, planning, and advocacy decisions.

What makes KeyData's vacation rental dataset unique?

KeyData has the largest verified vacation rental dataset in the industry.

KeyData is integrated with more than 80 property management systems and receives direct-source data from more than 17,000 property managers, representing over 1.15 million vacation rental properties worldwide. This direct-source foundation is supplemented by OTA data from approximately 2 million Airbnb listings and 1 million Vrbo listings, creating unmatched visibility into destination performance.

The result is a lodging dataset that is both broad and highly accurate.

What hotel data does KeyData provide?

KeyData includes robust hotel performance data alongside vacation rental data.

DMOs can analyze hotel and vacation rental performance side-by-side, compare trends across lodging types, and gain access to forward-looking hotel insights that help anticipate future demand. This unified view helps destination leaders understand how travelers are booking accommodations across their entire market.

How does KeyData help DMOs plan ahead instead of reacting?

KeyData provides forward-looking visibility into future demand.

DMOs consistently cite booking pace, booking windows, and feeder market reporting as some of the most valuable insights available. Instead of waiting for monthly reports, teams can monitor future occupancy trends, identify soft periods, and adjust marketing efforts before demand slows.

This helps destination organizations move from reactive reporting to proactive planning.

How do DMOs use KeyData to demonstrate marketing impact?

KeyData helps connect tourism performance to real outcomes.

Destination organizations use KeyData to understand event performance, identify high-value feeder markets, optimize campaign timing, and communicate results to boards, elected officials, and stakeholders. Many DMOs use booking pace, guest check-ins, feeder market trends, and length-of-stay data to support grant funding, justify marketing investments, and demonstrate economic impact.

Why do more than 300 destination organizations choose KeyData?

Because they need a complete, trusted view of destination performance.

KeyData helps DMOs understand the full lodging landscape by combining verified vacation rental data, hotel data, real-time reporting, and forward-looking insights in one platform. Customers consistently cite the ability to see hotel and vacation rental performance together, access feeder market intelligence, simplify board reporting, and make proactive decisions as key reasons they choose KeyData.

Instead of relying on separate data sources and disconnected reports, destination leaders get one clear view of what's happening now and what's coming next.
