About Vrbo
Written by the company
Vrbo is a vacation 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 vacation rentals across 190+ countries. From beach houses and cabins to condos and city apartments, Vrbo helps travelers 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 travelers who want more privacy, more room, and one home base for family vacations, reunions, and group travel. Vrbo started as Vacation Rentals By Owner and still focuses on helping travelers book entire homes for trips that are better together.
Why travelers choose Vrbo
Not every trip is best served by a hotel room or a stay with shared spaces. Vrbo is for travelers who want an entire home where they can stay together more comfortably. With a Vrbo vacation rental, travelers can:
How does Vrbo work?
Booking on Vrbo is simple:
Book with confidence
Vrbo helps travelers 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 travelers 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 through 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 travelers book with more confidence and fewer surprises.
Rewards through One Key
Vrbo is part of One Key, a free travel rewards program that lets you earn and use rewards across Expedia, Hotels.com, and Vrbo. Members can earn up to 2% in OneKeyCash on vacation rentals and use rewards across eligible bookings on all three brands.

*Terms apply. OneKeyCash is earned on eligible bookings, and redemption is limited to eligible bookings and participating vacation rentals.

I wad very disappointed but the customer service did a great job
I am very disappointed. I made a reservation last month. After the trip, I was supposed to get my deposit back. Now. It’s been more than 3 weeks and I cannot get my deposit back. I made a lot of call, mail. Nothing happen. It s very unpleasant and frustrating.
Finally, Vrbo helped me to get back my deposit. The problem was the host. Thanks to the customer service

Successful booking
I, inexperienced with online bookings, took the chance to book a vrbo and was successful. Victory! It was easy and I was able to communicate with the property owner prior to arrival.

It was a bit hard to find the place, but the room was cosy if a bit small and the bathroom had all we needed. The instructions were easy to follow.

We had issues with the place we stayed as it was totally not clean. To be honest it was gross. VRBO helped some but in the end we didn’t get much of a refund. I will be hard pressed to stay at a VRBO again. The place we stayed was rated as a 9.0 which really makes a person question the reviews.
