How much does a vacation rental website cost?
$4,500 for one to five homes, $9,500 for a direct-booking site with fifteen homes included, and from $18,000 for larger multi-resort portfolios. Fixed and published — half to start, half at launch. Care and SEO are optional monthly add-ons, never a condition of owning the site.
What if I only have one or two homes?
Then you want the Owner package, and you do not need a booking engine to start. An enquiry form, WhatsApp and a fast property page recover commission on their own. At $4,500, three direct bookings a year covers the whole build.
Can I keep my Airbnb and Vrbo listings?
Yes, and you should. A direct-booking site does not replace the platforms — it gives the guests who were going to book anyway somewhere to book without a commission. Most owners keep the OTAs for discovery and take the repeat guests direct.
Which booking systems do you connect to?
Guesty, Hostaway, Lodgify and OwnerRez, with Stripe for payments and deposits. Your availability, rates and calendars stay in the system you already run — I build around it rather than migrating you off it.
How long does a build take?
Four to twelve weeks, depending on how many homes there are to load. You see the home page and a property page first, with your real photos, and nothing moves on until those convince you.
Will my site rank in Orlando?
That is the work, not a guarantee. Florida Premier Rentals now sits above Expedia for “20 bedroom rent orlando” and is cited in Google’s AI overview — which took a page per search worth winning, structured data on every home, and new content every month for a year. I report on direct bookings and commission recovered, never on positions.
