Awful

If I could give this zero stars, I would. There is a persistent notification on the data tab that there is absolutely no way to get rid of. The information in this tab is worthless, and yet even if you go through the hassle of opening each one, the notifications do not go away.

Fort Myers Beach Vrbo Owner

Very pleased with the Vrbo owner app, it allows easy communication to our guests!

My own opinion

The worst application for the host

Promotional policy

Vrbo somehow decided to put promotional rates on my property in the middle of summer at peak demand such that I received a one month booking that they sliced 20pct off of. Had to fix and rebook it twice with customer after spending 40 mins on phone with help desk. Fortunately the customer didn't bail as it someone I have a relationship with. Way too much unsolicited tinkering with rates by Vrbo on different rental policies to increase transaction frequency that adds no value to the homeowner. And then when you want to speak to the potential renter, they make it impossible to exchange phone nums. And their fees are way too high. I appreciate their website and the distribution but end of day, it's my house.

At the mercy of your decisions

I won’t be renting with Vrbo anymore. You’ve changed everything to suit your own needs. You take a major portion of my income, just for advertising the property. I’m done.
