Dear Ruralis Community,The past few months have been about proof that our model can scalee beyond Italy, that guests love the experience we deliver, and that the business can compound. Today, we’re excited to share three milestones that set the pace for what’s next.We’ve landed in Florida, business model validated in Sarasota, Longboat Key, and Anna MariaWe secured our first 5 properties across Sarasota, Longboat Key, and Anna Maria, confirming that the Ruralis playbook translates to high-value US coastal markets. Florida’s seasonality is the perfect counterbalance to Italy’s peak, smoothing occupancy and cash flow across the year. Early demand and partner interest are strong, and we’re scaling carefully with quality-first standards. Our goal is to reach 25 live properties by the end of the year, and we’re confident we’ll get there.#1 in Italy for guest satisfaction on Trustpilot (now 4.8/5)Our Trustpilot rating climbed from 4.6 to 4.8, positioning Ruralis as the top-rated brand in Italy for short-term rental satisfaction among 82 leading competitors. This is the outcome of hard work, responsive support, and a product that puts guests and owners first. We’ll keep raising the bar.Financial traction: $2.8M in 2025 sales; $7.8M forecast for 2026The business continues to scale. We’ve confirmed $2.8M in 2025 sales and are targeting $7.8M in 2026. Growth is driven by a healthier channel mix, stronger direct demand, and better yield management across our portfolio.
