Does anyone have rental suggestions for condos besides VRBO,Air..
I have read from different people how they advertise their vacation rental condos but I'd appreciate a list or recommendations. i know about tripadvisor, airbnb and VRBO......any others that you think are good or have had experience with. I have a gulf front beach condo in Miramar Beach Florida.
Thanks

AirBnB and VRBO account for the majority of vacation rental booking in the US. TripAdvisor and Booking.com to a lesser extent. In your area, you might consider https://emeraldcoastbyowner.com - a number of hosts that I'm in touch with report good results.
I'm further south (Tampa Bay) and also list on https://www.floridarentalbyowners.com/ and https://www.floridarentals.com - have had some inquiries but no bookings yet.
I'd also recommend getting your own web site set up so you can accept direct bookings, particularly from repeat guests - we've been doing this for a few years now and our repeat bookings continue to grow year over year, and having a direct-booking option has worked well for us.
If you're not interested in setting up your own web site and booking back-end, maybe take a look at https://www.houfy.com/ set up a listing and refer your repeat guests to your Houfy listing.
