Über Vrbo
Vom Unternehmen geschrieben
Vrbo is a holiday rental platform for booking entire homes, and only entire homes. No shared spaces. No shared hosts. Just one place for you and your group to stay together.
Founded in 1995, Vrbo now offers more than 2 million holiday homes across 190+ countries. From beach houses and cabins to flats and city apartments, Vrbo helps travellers find the right space for trips where privacy, comfort and connection matter most.
What is Vrbo?
Vrbo is focused exclusively on entire-home stays, so you book the whole place to yourselves, not a shared room, shared space or host-occupied home. That matters for travellers who want more privacy, more room and one home base for family holidays, reunions and group travel. Vrbo started as Vacation Rentals By Owner and still focuses on helping travellers book entire homes for trips that are better together.
Why travellers choose Vrbo
Not every trip is best served by a hotel room or a stay with shared spaces. Vrbo is for travellers who want an entire home where they can stay together more comfortably.
With a Vrbo holiday home, travellers can:
How does Vrbo work?
Booking on Vrbo is simple:
Book with confidence
Vrbo helps travellers book with confidence through clearer information upfront. Listings can include:
Support you can trust
Every booking is automatically backed by VrboCare. If a significant issue affects a covered stay, Vrbo will help travellers find a similar place or receive a refund when eligible. Vrbo also offers customer support 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, with help available via chat and phone. And because trust also means privacy, interior cameras, shared homes and unannounced visits from hosts are not allowed on the platform. Together, these protections help travellers book with more confidence and fewer surprises.
Rewards through One Key
Vrbo is part of One Key, a free travel rewards programme that lets you earn and use rewards across Expedia, Hotels.com and Vrbo. Members can earn up to 2% in OneKeyCash on holiday rentals and use rewards across eligible bookings on all three brands. Members also get instant Member Prices on hotels through Expedia and Hotels.com:
*Terms apply. OneKeyCash is earned on eligible bookings and redemption is limited to eligible bookings and participating holiday rentals.

VRBO’s “Booking Guarantee” Provided No Protection After We Found Extensive Black Mold
Our experience with VRBO was incredibly disappointing.
The property we stayed in was filthy and had extensive black mold. I documented the conditions with photographs and contacted both the property owner and VRBO. The owner has not responded, and VRBO informed us that because the owner refuses to issue a refund, there is essentially nothing they will do.
What makes this especially frustrating is that VRBO advertises a booking guarantee, which gave us confidence that we would have some protection if a property was unsafe or significantly different from what was advertised. Based on our experience, that “guarantee” provided us with no meaningful protection at all.
We paid for a property that was in unacceptable condition, provided photographic documentation, and still have been left to absorb the cost.
I would not use VRBO again. If you are choosing between vacation rental platforms, I would strongly recommend looking at other options where customer protection is taken more seriously.

Cheaper than AirBnB
No problems during the booking process. I have the impression that rentals (of the same quality) are generally cheaper on Vrbo than AirBnB

We spent a very enjoyable 4 night stay in Ilfracombe. The apartment is obviously newly refurbished, everything was new and clean, and very comfortable. Ilfracombe is very hilly but from the apartment it was a reasonably flat 10-15 minute walk to the harbour, passing numerous shops and cafes on the way. Lidl was only a 5 minute walk in the other direction.
Lara, the host, was very friendly and helpful and we would have no hesitation in staying here again.

The Landmark Hotel in Scotland is a shit hole hotel and not the cool castle type building as shown. Also there is no apartment, stove, cooktop, or regular refrigerator. This is a dirty broken furniture crappy hotel room and this is not what I paid for. This is not acceptable!

This is possibly the worst apartment we have ever stayed in
This is possibly the worst apartment we have ever stayed in. The experience started when we arrived in an absolutely awful area; fighting , screaming, the smell of drugs...
We then tried to get in to the apartment and were given a door code. But we weren't given a key. We contacted Expedia who gave us the Hosts number. The Host refused to speak to use so after a few hours one of the other tenants was kind enough to let us in. The site itself is awful, dirty, untidy and very poor.
We continued communication with the Host who blatantly denied that a key was required.
2 days later we finally got a key.
The whole experience was traumatic and stressful; this place is definitely not a penthouse suite!
There is loads more to this story, including pictures if you would like to get more information
