| These guys are smart. They've identified a niche opportunity and have developed a product that gets better (in terms of inventory and usability) every day. It rivals some of the big name travel sites in terms of online experience, but also covers a key part of the market that many of them neglect. I think they're poised for growth. | ||

| FlipKey is very easy to use and provides all the pertinant information I am looking for when attempting to find a vacation rental. I love that it aggregates so much of the inventory within the industry and also gives me the ability to learn more about the company that manages the home I am interested in. The guest reviews also provide powerful experiences from past guests that increase overall predictability of the homes I am considering. I think this is a great site with tons of potential. | ||
