Choosing the right holiday rentals website, or combination of sites, is key to a successful holiday rental business.
The largest and most popular holiday rental networks are:
HomeAway
TripAdvisor
Airbnb
Dominating the industry for years, HomeAway and the holiday rental division of TripAdvisor own the largest networks of holiday rental websites most likely to appear on the top of your Google search.
On the other hand, the fastest growing individual website is Airbnb, with more than 3 million listings in over 191 countries worldwide.
The HomeAway Group
The TripAdvisor Group
Airbnb
Most holiday rental websites charge 3-5% commission on every confirmed booking OR a fixed annual fee. The most popular sites also apply a payment processing fee, (HomeAway.co.uk and Owners Direct – part of the HomeAway group).
Compared to paying a property management company to advertise and take bookings for you, using a holiday rental website to manage your own bookings can reduce costs and provide important peace of mind, knowing you have complete control over how your property is advertised and who gets to stay in it.
