Because of that, I started investing in luxury apartments here in Ghana and that is what Douglas Luxury Apartments stands for,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Oppong noted that his company has been recognised by clients for providing great customer experience to their local and international guests.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhenever they come to Ghana and stay in my apartments, they don\u2019t see a difference between the facilities they\u2019re used to and those we provide here,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Addressing the rising prices of Airbnb rentals in the country, Mr. Oppong explained that Airbnb pricing is influenced by seasonal demand. \u201cDuring Christmas, for instance, the whole world comes to Ghana, making it a peak period for rentals,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, there is a significant increase in prices during this time, but that is simply a reflection of supply and demand. There are also periods where demand is low and prices adjust accordingly,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BY Prince Fiifi Yorke<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Douglas Oppong \u00a0 Douglas Luxury Apartments, Ghana\u2019s leading short-term rental company, has been honoured with the Best Short-Term Rental Airbnb award at the 16th edition of the Ghana Property Awards.
