💸 Vrbo vs. Airbnb 💸 The Truth...
As long-time hosts, we've seen many changes over the years—and not all of them for the better. 😲 Vrbo has added another fee. This time it’s a “Payment Processing Fee”—and I couldn’t stay silent.

This fee is just the latest in a growing list of ways Vrbo is driving up costs—for both hosts AND guests.

👩‍🏫 Here’s What You Need to Know to Save Money on Your Next Stay...
1️⃣ When It Comes to Affordability, Booking Direct Wins!
If saving money is your priority, booking directly with your host will always be the best option.
✨ No platform fees.
✨ Lower rates.
✨ Clear, straightforward pricing.

Can’t 'Book Direct'? Airbnb is hands down the next best choice for affordability and transparency!

2️⃣ Lower Fees Mean Lower Costs for Guests...
Vrbo’s hefty 8%-14% commission fees are one of the biggest reasons booking with them costs more.

👉 As hosts, we’re left with no choice but to raise our nightly rates to cover those outrageous platform fees.

Airbnb, on the other hand, charges hosts just 3%. That means less of your vacation budget is wasted on unnecessary fees.
** With Airbnb, your money goes further toward the actual stay you’ll enjoy **

3️⃣ No Extra Fees for Damage Protection...

🕵️ Vrbo ...Requires guests to pay an 'Additional Property Damage Protection' Fee. ** Worse yet, this fee doesn’t go to your host—it’s just more money for Vrbo **
🤩 Airbnb includes FREE damage protection with their 'AirCover policy' — no extra cost to you or your host.

💡 Here’s why this matters:
With Airbnb, we’ve submitted 1 claim and it was seamlessly covered. It didn’t affect the guest or us negatively and the process was respectful and treated as deserved, accidental coverage—exactly how it should be!

👩‍🏫 Why This Matters for Guests...
At the end of the day, your vacation budget should go toward enjoying your trip, not paying for platform fees or unnecessary extras.

💡 Pro Tip: Ask your host about 'Booking Directly' for the best rates and most transparent pricing.
✨ If direct booking isn’t possible, Airbnb is the next best option to save money and avoid overpaying.

🤩 Your dream getaway shouldn’t come with extra fees or surprises. Plan smart, compare your options, and book where your money goes the furthest—for you and the unforgettable experience you deserve.

👋One Last Thing
A quick note about booking directly: If you’ve already communicated with us through a platform like Vrbo or Airbnb, we are not allowed to arrange a direct booking for that stay. Doing so could result in us being expelled from the platform—a risk no host wants to take.

👋 However, we’d love for you to book directly with us for your next getaway or if you reach out to us off-platform. Direct bookings save you money, allow for transparent pricing, and give us the freedom to offer you the best rates possible.

So, while we can’t book directly after platform communication, we’re happy to help you save on future stays.

🤩 Let’s make your next vacation even better!!
