Vacation rental websites, done for you
Get found on Google and in AI. Guests book direct.
We build your direct booking website, connect the booking system you already use, and keep working on how travelers find you: on Google, and in the answers ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI give when someone asks where to stay. You don't write a word.
$99 a month · No setup fee · No booking commission · Works with OwnerRez, Hostaway, Hospitable, Lodgify and more
What we work on
One website, three jobs: found, named, booked direct.
Airbnb and Vrbo already introduce you to guests. Your own site's job is to be found as you, and to turn the guests who find you into direct bookings.
Found on Google
Area guides and guest-type pages aimed at what travelers search for: the trails, beaches, lifts and drive times near your place.
Named when travelers ask AI
Clear answers and rental schema on every page, so ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews can read your property and name it.
Booked direct
Your booking system's own checkout on your site, live availability, the money straight to you, and a guest assistant that answers questions day and night.
The cost of renting your guests
Every booking, the platform takes its cut. Every repeat booking, it takes it again.
Marketplaces are good at introducing you to new guests. The trouble is paying the introduction fee on the family that's coming back for the fifth summer.

How it works
The website project, minus the project.
Owners don't put off their website because they doubt it matters. They put it off because it's a job. So we took the job.
Send us what you have
Your current website, your Airbnb or Vrbo listing, or both. We pull the photos, descriptions, amenities and policies from there.
We build it
A custom site designed around your place, with your booking system's checkout wired in. You review a working preview, not a mockup.
We launch it on your domain
We handle DNS and redirects so your existing links keep working. If you don't have a domain yet, we'll help you pick one.
It keeps improving
Every week your site gains new local pages, and every month we do the search and AI work. Need a change? Tell your site's AI agent, or on Concierge, tell us.
Every month
Your rental's website shouldn't stop improving the day it launches.
“Where should we stay near Mammoth with three families?” An AI assistant answers that by reading a few specific, local, well-structured pages. So every month we do the search and AI work your place needs to be one of them, on both plans. It's the product, not an add-on.
Know what travelers search
The searches and AI questions worth winning near your place, each matched to one page on your site.
Publish local pages every week
Area guides and guest-type pages for families, couples, big groups and dog owners, written from real facts about your place.
Keep the structured data right
Amenities, occupancy, location and question-and-answer blocks in the machine-readable format search engines use for places to stay.
Ask the AI assistants
What ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI say when a traveler asks where to stay near you, and what they say about your place by name.
Keep your listings in step
Your site, your Airbnb listing and your Vrbo listing should agree on the name, the sleeps count and the house rules. We check, and tell you what to fix.
Show you one plain page
What went live this month, what needs you, and how your searches are moving.
Keep your booking software
We're the front door, not another back office.
Your calendar, channel sync and payments stay exactly where they are. We embed your booking system's own checkout, so availability is always live and the money goes straight to you.
Built for your kind of stay
A ski guest and a beach family are not asking the same things.
Pricing
One flat price. The platform is identical; the difference is people.
Both plans include the build, the migration, hosting, the weekly pages, the monthly search and AI work, and the guest assistant.

Questions
The ones we hear first
Does VacayDirect process bookings or payments?
No. Bookings, payments and calendars run through your own booking system, such as OwnerRez, Hostaway, Hospitable, Lodgify, Guesty or Hostfully. We embed that system's checkout in your site. The money goes straight to you and we never take a commission.
What if I don't have a website yet?
We build from your Airbnb or Vrbo listing: photos, description, amenities, house rules and reviews you have the right to reuse.
Should I leave Airbnb and Vrbo?
Most owners shouldn't. Marketplaces are effective at reaching new guests. Your own site is for repeat guests, referrals and everyone who searches for you by name or asks a specific question about your area.
How do I make changes?
Chat with your site's AI agent in plain English: "swap the hero photo for the sunset one", "add a page about the new sauna". It makes the change and shows you a preview before publishing. On Concierge, you can simply email us and a person handles it.
Do you guarantee bookings or rankings?
No. Anyone who does is guessing. We guarantee the work: the site, the weekly content and honest reporting.
Do I own my site?
Yes. Your site lives in its own code repository. If you cancel, we transfer the site and its hosting to you.
Let's get your place its own front door.
A 30-minute call. We'll look at your current site or listing, tell you what we'd build and answer anything. No pitch deck.
