The company is a scam

The company is a scam - no bookings or contact. Incorrect property details despite updating multiple times. Contractual agreement saying money would be refunded if no bookings which has not been adhered to. Unable to contact them for weeks and then sparadic replies saying accounts department will respond - it has now been 3 months since first contact about this. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

A great company and did a good job.

A great company and did a good job in providing customers I had a property in Belgium and receive ample number of bookings and I registered two years ago. Michael was very polite and give me clear advice regarding my property on their site.

AVOID - THIS IS A SCAM! BEWARE! FELLOW HOLIDAY HOME HOSTSDO NOT ENGAGE WITH THIS COMPANY!

AVOID! Do not be fooled by this company! It is a front end operation with an underlying scam! I paid my rental fees and all seemed well - in fact they were very responsive and I started with very positive feelings....UNTIL 31st DECEMBER 2025. Then 1st January 2026, the phone lines went dead, no support response from emails and my listings all disappeared from the site. I suspect that the listings you see on the site are ALL FALSE! They are slick and have done a runner!

Holiday Rental Hosts - UPDATE! on 20th January (ie one day after my review was published) they wrote to me to say that the work to the site was now completed and that listings were now online - UNTRUE!!!!!!
WARNING! Do not be deceived by this company as I have been!

DA EVITARE! Non fatevi ingannare da questa azienda! È un'operazione di front-end con una truffa sottostante! Ho pagato il canone di affitto e tutto sembrava a posto - in realtà sono stati molto reattivi e ho iniziato con sensazioni molto positive... FINO AL 31 DICEMBRE 2025. Poi, il 1° gennaio 2026, le linee telefoniche sono cadute, nessuna risposta di supporto via email e tutti i miei annunci sono scomparsi dal sito. Ho il sospetto che gli annunci che vedete sul sito siano TUTTI FALSI! Sono furbi!

Host di Case Vacanza - AGGIORNAMENTO! Il 20 gennaio (ovvero un giorno dopo la pubblicazione della mia recensione) mi hanno scritto per dirmi che i lavori sul sito erano stati completati e che gli annunci erano ora online - FALSO!!!!!!
ATTENZIONE! Non fatevi ingannare da questa azienda come è successo a me!

No bookings at all

Very pushy when they want you to advertise. They guarantee results but 2 years later not a single enquiry. The the emails are not that frequent anymore and its quiet. Avoid advertising there. I asked for a refund but I doubt I will get it. Property nr 57148

Edit: 2 months later and still no reaction from the company. Also no promised refund

Amazing experience with The Rental…

Amazing experience with The Rental Hive.
I published 4 properties with them, they offered me a great discount to give them a try and It has been 3 Months, I am getting inquiries and as of now I get 3 bookings.
They provide feedbacks to improve the ad and help in every aspects. Their customer support is amazing, Had great experience with Ana and Lisa, they are always available.
I was really unhappy by paying commission but I found a good platform and now I am happily renting my property.

Quick response, best customer service 😃

I have just recently posted my ad for renting out our holiday house with The Rental Hive.
