MacDill AFB Lodging providers Announced

New MacDill Air Force Base Lodging Providers
 
DoD Lodging is available at many locations through the Defense Lodging System offered by TDY Lodging.  MacDill AFB has a lot of temporary housing options for Soldiers and Airmen traveling to the Air Force Base in Tampa.  Hotels and furnished condos or apartments may be the most convenient housing option for travelers interested in being close to the base, while allowing them to be in close proximity to downtown Tampa activities and nightlife.  The Air Force Inn at MacDill is an option for military and retired military, but many travelers may choose to stay in Tampa in off base housing. 

Corporate Housing providers in Tampa offer the same amenities as the base lodging facilities, but in many cases offer proximity to local restaurants, activities in the Tampa area, and in many cases hotel rewards points can be accrued for future travel.  The national corporate housing provider TDY Lodging recently added thousands of rooms to their Tampa Corporate Housing inventory through new furnished lodging providers including Marriott ExecuStay, among other well known hotels.  

MacDill AFB Lodging has always been a market saturated by temporary housing providers, but the new reservation portal offered by TDY Lodging seems to offer the widest range of lodging options at the most locations for government travel.  The wide range of offerings include hotels, houses, furnished apartments and condo rentals.  The recent news release announces staggering details about influx of MacDill AFB Lodging rooms.

Corporate Relocation and House Rentals

The recent acquisition of Corporate House Rentals was able to offer a large number of furnished accommodations to the inventory featured by TDY Lodging in their DoD Lodging reservation system. 

The company had previously offered furnished accommodations at many locations throughout the U.S. for corporate relocation and insurance housing.  Corporate House Rentals' inventory and listed properties, which included furnished apartments, houses, and condos at highly trafficked locations like San Diego, Washington DC, and Tampa created a boost for the Defense Lodging system and offered immediate property availability for corporate and government travelers. 

The Corporate House Rentals website is now fully integrated into the Corporate Lodging reservation portal managed by TDY Lodging.

Government and Military Housing portal TDY Lodging acquires BaseLodging.com


In its second acquisition this year, Real Estate portal TDYLodging.com acquires Base Lodging, a portal for Military Housing, and Furnished Housing.

Washington DC, July 21, 2010, 8am ET  --  TDY Lodging (Washington DC), announced its second acquisition of the year.  TDY Lodging which primarily serves Fort Huachuca, MacDill Air Force Base, Naval Air Station San Diego, and Washington DC will expand its reach to target even more areas where government and military lodging is needed.

Military veteran Matthew Foster, founder of TDY Lodging, told reporters at IPO Finder “TDY Lodging provides housing options for government and military personnel, while providing property owners with access to a large pool of military and government travelers.  Adding BaseLodging.com to our portfolio of web portals will simply allow us to further expand our reach.”

With the depressed real estate market, many property owners are over-extended, but rental income from furnished housing for TDY Military and Government personnel continues to grow at a steady pace.  Focusing on this niche market allows property owners to fill the income gap in housing and TDY Lodging has developed the largest databases and web portal of its kind.
