Mobile hospitality company Cabana today announced its upcoming launch into the San Francisco market, with a formal event taking place this summer.
The company also operates in Los Angeles and Seattle. Cabana’s San Francisco entry marks a significant milestone and the first of many more U.S. expansions set to roll out over the next year, according to a press release.
The World Travel & Tourism Council projects domestic tourism to reach pre-pandemic levels this year, contributing upwards of $1 trillion to the U.S. economy. As the desire to travel grows, Cabana enables seamless and unique travel experiences by merging accommodation and transportation with personalized, contactless trip planning.
Cabana’s services actively empower guests to explore the less-traveled road and make the most of their time on vacation.
“The pandemic has permanently shifted how people want to travel, prioritizing memorable experiences over simply taking a trip,” said Scott Kubly, Cabana CEO, and founder.
“Cabana’s offering––from our contactless rental process and easy-to-use van to Cabana Guides booking your campsite for you––allows guests to focus on enjoying the journey, not worrying about the logistics. Cabana is excited to offer Bay Area residents and those visiting the city a new way to explore.”
Cabana’s introduction into San Francisco demonstrates the company’s continued momentum since launching in 2020, further solidifying the brand’s innovation and leadership in the travel industry.
Cabana believes that modern mobile hospitality is the future of travel, where technology and design provide travelers the ultimate flexibility and independence. It continues to give the consumers campervan or RV vacations, with nearly 70% of customers since its launch had never operated an RV before their Cabana experience.
This announcement also comes on the heels of a successful partnership with an iconic outdoor brand Eddie Bauer, from which gear will be available to rent in the San Francisco market.
“We absolutely loved our experience with Cabana, being able to be in nature but also have a totally comfy bed and warm van to stay in with our dogs,” said Cabana customer Jamie R. from Los Angeles. “I’m so sad our trip is over and hope to plan another soon.”
Cabana’s San Francisco fleet will start with 20 campervans, with projected growth to over 50 by the end of the year, and will be available to take off starting late this summer. With the launch, Cabana will offer Bay Area trips complete with campsite reservations and experiences, helping to take the guesswork out of trip planning.
Expected top trip requests include wine tastings, the iconic Highway 1, Yosemite National Park, and Mammoth for lake swims, hot springs, and winter sports.
