Experts have found that 40.8% of Russians take about a week off, 27.8% take two weeks off, and 22.7% take 2-3 days off. At the same time, 26.2% of the participants shared that they were not satisfied with the quality of the proposed resort infrastructure, 38% rated resort real estate at an average level, and for 35% the existing range of resort housing offers was acceptable.

"The growing popularity of domestic tourism sets certain vectors for the development of the Russian resort real estate market. According to our data, the key factor influencing the choice of a place to stay during a vacation is the developed infrastructure in the resort complexes. Vacationers want their vacations to reflect their interests and hobbies, and they are looking for a non—standard approach to providing leisure," said Georgy Rykov, an investor in the Roshchino Residence project.

According to him, projects that present both different formats for living (hotel, apartment complex, sanatorium) and a rich leisure environment are popular: sports facilities, entertainment venues, spaces and studios for self-development, children's clubs.
