About Us
A Vacation resource for Hosts as well as Guests
Vacation Hospitality is a short-term rental resource for both hosts and guests. For hosts we manage property listings across every major booking channel and assist you in marketing your homes as efficiently and successfully as possible, including in all cases, directly to whomever you choose. For guests, we offer a venue where you can book your favorite space directly, without fees, and with full communication with the owner; before, during and after, booking.
Vacation Hospitality serves both hosts and guests because that's who we are, ourselves. We bring an agnostic perspective to everything we do because, in our experience, vacation hosts and vacationing guests generally have well-aligned interests. This site and our business exists merely to provide hosts and guests with the tools to communicate and transact under whatever terms you choose.
​
Our Mission Statement
Vacation Hospitality exists to (1) give hosts more of the value that their home generates and (2) to provide guests a platform, free of fees, to book the vacation they want with the property owner directly.
