This is hugely useful. I'd add for non-US users to re-direct to the correct domain/currency, that'd make it more useful for us Brits.

@nicksmithr thanks for the feedback!

I typically spend way too much time comparing vacation rental rates across all the major sites (booking.com, VRBO, etc.) to find the perfect spot for my various trips. Excited that the Wilbur Labs team built VacationRenter to solve that problem.

Much needed product. Will 100% replace the 12 tabs and spreadsheet I typically use to browse and compare various travel sites.

How is this any different than Tripping.com?

@drewmeyers Hi Drew! There are various vacation rental meta companies in the market, almost all are focused on having the largest inventory of rental options. Given how the vacation rental market is extremely complex and fragmented, we know that the long term solution for users will be born out of automation and personalization. VacationRenter is able to read real-time signals across marketing and product to take personalization to the next level. The result is a better experience with more relevant results for the user. We have a ways to go, but users have really embraced our approach to this problem and that's powered our unusually fast growth.

@psan I believe the future is curation, which is a form of personalization. But automated curation doesn't work so well, from my experience.

We book 2 different rentals, 1-week each. The booking experience was great and best selection. We especially love our cottage rental overlooking the sea. Follow our past/this fall trip on Twitter! @luvtraveluk

Pros:

Love VacationRenter! Just booked our cottage for our fall trip to England along the Southwest Coastal Path. Well done!

Cons:

Nothing

This product is supposed to be really good! I like planning my trips beforehand. And of course, accomodation is one of the first things I look for when I start preparing for a vacation. Usually I use home away sites to find the best deals, but it is great to know more good sources. So, thanks a lot!
