Back in 2002, the two friends, Dankert and Ralph used to have weekly brainstorming sessions on possible business ideas with a group of friends. During one of those sessions, Dankert proposed to study short-stay rentals, which looked interesting. Everyone agreed on investigating this idea and started to look into possible opportunities.
In that period, they were having people staying over at their apartments almost all weeks. And so it happened that Ralph had some old fellows staying at his place. He mentioned them that he would leave the keys behind as he was not in town. When he returned from the trip, he recognized that they had tidied up the house, left the keys on the table and left some money for the stay. Even though he did not ask for it! But this certainly proved Dankert’s idea to be a real business opportunity.
During the next brainstorming session it was decided to go for it! Dankert and Ralph took the chance and became business partners.
Shortly after the company started as Enjoy Barcelona with about 14 properties. Over the years, Enjoy Barcelona converted into a short-stay and monthly apartment rental platform and management company called ‘’EnjoyApartments’’, and still go by this name.
We now operate in many top destinations and count with hundreds of properties worldwide!
