WanderJaunt

WanderJaunt, a San Francisco-based short-term rental property management startup, ceased all operations on June 30, 2022, citing adverse economic conditions. The closure resulted in approximately 85 employees being laid off, effectively the entire workforce. Founded in 2016, the company had raised over $25 million in venture capital and operated in eight U.S. markets, managing properties for travelers and homeowners. A recorded message informed customers of the shutdown, advising those with future bookings to seek refunds directly through their booking platforms or credit card companies. This marked a full wind-down for the venture-backed hospitality firm.

WanderJaunt laid off 56 employees representing approximately 23% of its workforce on 2020-03-25.
