Safara is a hotel booking platform and software company backed by Sequoia Capital, defy.vc, Thayer Ventures, and more. Our consumer app (https://bit.ly/safara_app) has 1M bookable properties and we use a mix of data aggregation + community recommendations to curate the best hotels globally. Consumers love us for our clean design, amazing customer service, and simple loyalty program. Safara's special sauce is that we also power the shopping + checkout experience for top independent hotel websites (e.g. Ace Hotels, Inness, Marram, Dawn Ranch, Calamigos Guest Ranch). This combination of consumer marketplace + SaaS business is highly-differentiated and we are just scratching the surface of bringing our vision to life.
