Pure Holiday Homes has been shortlisted for Best Accommodation Website

June 24, 2010 - PRLog -- Pure Holiday Homes is pleased to announce that its market leading website – www.pureholdiayhomes.com – has been shortlisted for the Best Accommodation – Only Website at the 4th Travolution Awards. The winners will be announced on 28th September 2010 at an exclusive event attended by leading dignitaries from the travel industry. To be shortlisted for the award only nine months after inception is an incredible achievement for Pure Holiday Homes and illustrates the company’s ambition to become one of the UK’s leading holiday rental portals by the end of 2010.

The Travolution Awards have become unique in recognising companies, brands and individuals who excel in the fields of online travel distribution, digital marketing and technology. Created with the clear goal of challenging the existing holiday rental portals that adopt a tired and uninspiring existence, being shortlisted for this award outlines the commitment Pure Holiday Homes has shown towards excellence, dynamism and innovation.

“We had no intention of launching Pure Holiday Homes quietly onto the market. We wanted to attack this sector with a bang and create a fresh, clean brand that clearly distinguishes itself. To that end we have worked with some of Europe’s best website developers and have assigned considerable investment to grow our business as quickly and effectively as possible. To be shortlisted for this award so soon after launch is testament to the hard work, commitment and innovative thinking put in from our whole team.” comments Sean Collins, Joint CEO of Pure Holiday Homes.

The Travolution Awards will be held at The Boiler House at Battersea Power Station and will be judged by a panel of proven business leaders, experts and entrepreneurs. They are the UK travel industry’s highest accolade for innovation and excellence online and previous winners include EasyJet, Expedia, Trip Advisor & Travelsupermarket. Companies and brands compete in a select number of categories, whilst entrepreneurs and rising stars are honoured in the individual awards.
