So what does Premier Host mean on Vrbo and how can you become one? Read all about it below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Vrbo Premier Host is a free, invite-only program that recognises property managers who consistently deliver outstanding traveller experiences.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n As a Vrbo Premier Host, you can enjoy a wide range of perks, from a special Premier Host badge that makes your listings stand out to 24\/7 priority support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can become a Vrbo Premier Host by investing time, care and energy into making your guests\u2019 stays special and meeting a set of eligibility criteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Related<\/strong>: How to Rank Higher on Vrbo<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are the requirements you need to meet to earn Premier Host status (across all your listings in the last 365 days):<\/p>\n\n\n\n The reviews you get from your guest are a reflection of the hospitality experience you provide. As a result, reviews are one of the most important criteria to qualify for Premier Host status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To be eligible, you need to have collected at least 3 reviews from guests and have a 4.3 or higher average review rating <\/strong>across all your listings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wondering how the average review rating is calculated? Here\u2019s an example. If you have five properties with ten bookings total, and five bookings received a 5.0 rating and five bookings received a 4.5 rating, your average review rating would be 4.75.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tips on getting more (and better) guest reviews:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Accepting as many bookings as you possibly can and following through \u2013 i.e. not cancelling reservations \u2013 is crucial to providing a great guest experience. That\u2019s why paying attention to your acceptance and cancellation rates is key to achieving Premier Host status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To become a Premier Host, you need to maintain a 90% or higher booking acceptance rate and a 5% or lower owner-initiated cancellation rate<\/strong> across all your listings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n How is the owner-initiated cancellation rate calculated? For example, if you have five properties with twenty bookings in total, and you cancelled one of those bookings, your overall owner-initiated cancellation rate would be 5%. Bookings cancelled by guests do not count towards this rate and do not affect your eligibility for Premier Host Status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tips on improving your booking acceptance rate:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Additionally, if you\u2019d like to become a Vrbo Premier Host, you need to have received 5 or more bookings or 60 or more booked nights<\/strong> across all your listings in the last 365 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You don\u2019t need to apply to become a Premier host \u2013 as soon as you meet all the eligibility criteria outlined above, you\u2019ll be automatically accepted into the programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eligibility is reassessed on a quarterly basis. You can lose your Premier Host status if you don\u2019t meet the criteria, but you can also get it back as soon as you fulfil the requirements again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Achieving Premier Host status comes with a number of benefits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s very easy to check your Vrbo Premier Host status.
