The ÖÖD Group, a leading nature hospitality brand and creator of unique nature stays worldwide, has secured an equity investment to accelerate its future growth.
Bayard Capital, the family-run growth investor, will back the company and its team and support the development of ÖÖD sites across the globe. The existing shareholders are excited to welcome members of the O'Reilly family to the ÖÖD board for strategic advice and to join the adventurous journey first-hand.
ÖÖD is known for its iconic Mirror House design, which it has been producing in Estonia and the US since 2016. In 2022, ÖÖD launched an international hospitality business through its proprietary ÖÖD Partnership Program
Through this program, ÖÖD teams up with landowners and existing hospitality operators such as vineyards, golf clubs, farms, and estates to create nature and adventure-centric hospitality destinations in beautiful locations. In return, ÖÖD receives a share of the rental income the houses generate.
In recent years, ÖÖD has expanded its portfolio to more than 100 houses across nearly 50 sites in 12 countries, all bookable on StayOOD.com.
The new growth capital will allow the business to realize its pipeline of new sites in the US, the EU, and beyond. ÖÖD expects to invest more than €50M over the next 2–3 years to build a portfolio of up to 1,000 cabins worldwide.
ÖÖD looks forward to collaborating with landowners across the US, Scandinavia, Iceland, the UK, and other regions to create some of the most exciting nature getaways on the planet.
