LivAway Suites’ New Chapter in Vineyard, Utah
LivAway Suites has recently inaugurated its newest establishment in Vineyard, Utah, completing its third location in the state and bringing its total to nine open hotels across the nation. Launched in 2023, LivAway Suites is establishing itself as a robust player in the extended-stay hotel segment, particularly targeting rapidly growing U.S. markets. This latest opening is timely, considering that Utah County ranks as one of the fastest-growing regions in the United States.
Utah County: A Booming Market
Utah County is undergoing significant demographic changes and economic development, with an impressive increase of 21,853 new residents from July 2023 to July 2024. This growth accounts for 43% of the state’s total population rise—the highest of any county in Utah. With over 750,000 residents—a 13% increase since 2020—Utah County is thriving, thanks to job growth, in-migration, and expanding housing options.
This rapid evolution has led to a rising need for versatile lodging solutions. Nestled near key institutions like Brigham Young University (BYU) and Utah Valley University (UVU), in addition to major employers such as Qualtrics and Vivint, Vineyard is becoming a focal point for workforce, academic, and medical-related travel.
Kevin Dailey, Chief Operating Officer of LivAway Suites, emphasized, "Utah County is one of the most dynamic growth markets in the country. Our new Vineyard location allows us to cater to a diverse and growing client base. Our customers range from traveling nurses to relocating families, and university-related viewers, all of whom require budget-friendly, home-like accommodations."
Strong Performance and Future Expansion
While still in its infancy, LivAway Suites has shown promising performance, with its portfolio of nine hotels performing above expectations. Dailey noted, "These encouraging results foster confidence among investors and developers, reaffirming our business model, which aims to provide well-located, efficiently constructed extended-stay hotels that meet guest needs without unnecessary frills."
The brand operates within what is termed the "upper-economy" extended-stay niche, thereby bridging the gap between basic economy entries and the saturated midscale extended-stay category. Each suite is fitted with a fully equipped in-room kitchen adorned with contemporary Scandinavian-inspired designs, and incorporates innovative guest technology such as self check-in, mobile assistance, and smart parcel systems.
Looking ahead to 2026, LivAway Suites plans a robust expansion strategy. "As an executive team, we are thrilled with the outcomes from our existing locations across the nation. And we're just at the beginning of our journey," Dailey remarked enthusiastically.
