VRBO
VRBOVacation Rental By Owner — a major online travel agency owned by Expedia Group. Originally focused on whole-home vacation rentals (unlike Airbnb's shared-space origins), VRBO charges hosts a 5% commission per booking or an annual subscription fee. VRBO tends to attract family travelers and longer stays compared to Airbnb.
Example
A host lists their family-friendly beach house on VRBO to reach vacation travelers, while using Airbnb for shorter weekend stays and their direct site for repeat guests.
