New Year's holidays are a time when Ukrainians traditionally seek a change of scenery, relax in the mountains or visit big cities filled with a festive atmosphere. However, a study by OLX Real Estate platform shows that most Ukrainians do not plan to rent accommodation during this period.



According to the survey:


• 71% of respondents do not intend to rent accommodation for the winter holidays.

• Only 6% of Ukrainians consider a winter holiday with rental accommodation.

• 3% of respondents rent property exclusively to celebrate the New Year.


Among those who are planning a holiday, the most popular destination is the Carpathians. They account for 77% of the choice among travellers.



The Carpathians remain the most attractive holiday destination in Ukraine. The most popular resorts among respondents were the following:


Bukovel - 50%;

Yaremche - 29%;

Verkhovyna - 27%;

Slavske - 24%.


Ukrainians are most interested in holidays in the Carpathians from late December to early January, when 57% of all planned trips are made. Another 29% are planning a holiday from mid to late January. As for the duration of the holiday trip, 35% of respondents choose a holiday of 3-7 days.
