Homeaway was once again voted best overall vacation rental site for generating bookings by COHR subscribers. With 23% of the votes, Homeway led the vote, with Ownersdirect (18%) and Flipkey (17%) taking the next places. VRBO slipped down to fourth place from second in our last survey, while Holiday Lettings showed an improvement in placing fifth.
Adventurepads was voted as best free vacation rental site, with Domegos coming a close second. However, once again, many vacation rental owners cited that they either don't use free sites or don't generate a lof of bookings when they are used.
In the US category, Homeaway was, perhaps unsurprisingly,again the winner, with Flipkey and VRBO voted next best. Cyberrentals, surprisingly, showed in fourth place, showing there is still life in the old dog yet.
In Europe, Ownersdirect was the winner, with Holidaylettings and Homeaway UK just behind them.
In the Specialist vacation rental site category, Adventurepads was the winner, with Toptravelangebot ( for German speaking guests) and Villas2000 ( specialist in Florida) next best.

I am really surprised that Airbnb didn't show up on the survey. I would say that 60-70% of my bookings this past year were generated through that website. The remainder came from VRBO. Two years ago, the number was quite opposite. Then I received 90% from VRBO and few from Airbnb. But I have noticed that Airbnb is the new hot and upcoming travel site.
Airbnb is new in competition. It will take time to come up...
Thanks for sharing the best vacation rentals sites of 2013.
