Wander Secures $50M Series B to Build the Trusted Brand in Vacation Rentals

Wander announced a $50 million Series B funding round, co-led by QED Investors and Fifth Wall with participation from Redpoint Ventures, Uncork, Starwood, and Breyer Capital and many other returning and new investors. The capital will accelerate Wander’s expansion and deepen its investment in WanderOS, its proprietary AI operating system that manages logistics and guest needs with hotel-grade consistency, at scale.

“We are excited to continue to support John Andrew and the whole Wander team by co-leading their Series B round. Wander has built a world-class brand with industry-leading software to bring the Wander experience to thousands. Reviews have been overwhelmingly positive with NPS scores in the 70s and 80s. In just one year, the company has signed over 1,000 homes and looks to continue adding coverage to the map. WanderOS has enabled this tremendous growth while making the process for owners to onboard to Wander seamless,” said Chuckie Reddy, Partner at QED Investors.

“The short-term rental market represents a massive and under-optimized asset class, and Wander is uniquely positioned to lead it into its next chapter,” shared Dan Wenhold, Partner, Fifth Wall. “By combining premium inventory, a trusted brand, and category-defining software, Wander is setting a new standard for consistency and scale in a historically fragmented space—delivering an end-to-end, high-touch, high-quality travel experience. We’re proud to co-lead this round and to continue backing John Andrew and the Wander team as they redefine the future of travel.”

Wander is targeting the $35B+ tier of luxury homes across North America and beyond – the properties that guests remember and owners seek to maximize. With this Series B funding, Wander will expand into new markets, invest further in AI-powered operations, and continue building a global brand grounded in quality, trust, and technology.
