FAQS
Yes, your vacation rental management business needs its own website.
Using OTAs and social media can be great, but it puts the control of your business into the hands of other companies, meaning you’re at the whim of an algorithm you don’t control. If the platform goes down, you’ve lost your business. Plus, OTAs charge extra fees.
Creating your own vacation rental website boosts authority and positions you as a professional expert, gives you control over your marketing, and enables direct bookings without paying extra fees, so you can start building guest relationships directly.
Everything to do with vacation rental property management, such as coordinating, automating, and facilitating all aspects of the booking, including payment, confirmation, screening tenants, online check-in, guest services, check-out, staff workflows, cleaning, and reviews, as well as creating a paper trail for local compliance.
It depends on the property management tool and management features. Generally, property management software companies charge an amount per booking. At Avantio, we offer varied packages depending on your business needs.
Depending on the business model, starting your own online vacation rental business means that you will need to acquire properties or sign up property owners, who will enlist you to rent their properties for them.
You will then need to take excellent photos and describe the listings attractively, and attract guests who are ready to rent.
You can do this via the many online travel agencies (OTAs) such as Airbnb, Booking.com, or VRBO. In addition, a responsive, beautiful website will set you apart from the hobbyist hosts, and give you a professional shop window to boost direct bookings, revenue, and occupancy for your new business.
The possibilities are endless when it comes to the best vacation rental website themes. But we think the best ones are those designed specifically for vacation rentals, and will enable you to present your properties in the best light, and take bookings and payments directly and easily.
Think large photos, easy-to-read text, simple search functions, and powerful payment portals that make booking a breeze. The best will also offer customized colors, fonts, and logos to your own brand, and optimize SEO for great Google rankings. Avantio’s vacation rental website design service does all this and more.
There are many ways to create a rental property website online, but not all of them will give you a website that is designed to convert.
Avantio‘s websites are built on templates and our VRMS system, which are designed to drive bookings, and make it easy for visitors to search for availability, check out your properties in detail, and book and pay in minutes.
This means details such as beautiful photos, easy-to-read descriptions, a simple calendar, clear booking buttons; and quick, secure, and intuitive payment portals.
No, you cannot get the Avantio Website Design plan without the Avantio VRMS. This is because our vacation rental websites are built on the powerful Avantio Vacation Rental Management System (VRMS), so you will need both. And, as they’re designed to work seamlessly together, they’re the perfect duo.
Deciding what to name your vacation rental website is entirely up to you, but you’ll want to make sure it’s descriptive and easy to understand, and not taken by anyone else!
You will likely want to make sure it’s clear that you operate vacation rentals, or include the name of your area of expertise—for example, if you only have rentals in Florida, you might want to make that clear in your name.
The best names are original, descriptive, clear, and easy to understand (not to mention that including keywords such as “vacation rentals” in your name may make it easier for you to rank highly on search engines such as Google).
No, you do not need to pay Avantio any extra commission for direct bookings through your website. We don’t believe in charging our clients for doing well. That’s why we do not add any per booking, transaction fees, or commissions to your monthly subscription. No booking fees. No commissions. No catch.
