La Vie Facile

I started using Rentals United which saves me a lot of time. My trainer (Damaris Chalmers) was adorable and very patient, and the support team very impressive, very fast but also very precise about the issues, with screenshots very intuitive for the new user. It is still too early to judge the increase in revenue generated but I have already made reservations on sites that I had never used before.

Very helpful and kind staff/help desk. It’s a very organised channel manager, especially if you have many rentals to manage.

HomeAway/Vrbo generates revenue through a pay-per-booking model, where property owners and managers pay a commission for each reservation made through the platform. The company charges service fees to travelers, too.

HomeAway and Vrbo were initially separate brands under the same parent company. In 2020, the two brands were consolidated and rebranded as Vrbo to establish a more cohesive brand identity in the vacation rental market.

While both are vacation rental platforms, HomeAway/Vrbo primarily focuses on entire home rentals, such as cabins, condos, and villas, catering more to families and groups seeking larger accommodations. Meanwhile, Airbnb offers a wider range of options, including shared spaces and private rooms.
