Hey everyone,
I’ve been using Airbnb for a while, but I’m wondering if there are any other good websites for finding accommodation. I’m looking for something that’s just as reliable but maybe offers different options or has better prices.
Whether it’s for short-term stays, vacation rentals, or even long-term accommodations, I’d love to hear what other platforms you’ve had success with. Bonus points if the site is easy to use and has good customer service.
VRBO worked nicely the two times I’ve used it.

Yeah, it’s a reliable website.
Quit the Airbnb, tired of them advertising a place for $100 a night then at checkout finding a $100 cleaning fee and Airbnb fee of $50, so that $100 stay ends up being $250.
Try Vacasa.
I used Agoda once to book a villa in Thailand. It went well, no problems. I normally don’t use 3rd party apps for accommodations but the villa didn’t have their own reservation software.
Houses are for families. Try a hotel or any variation of a hotel.

Coming from someone who solo-travels most of the year, this is absolutely not true. I book stays for the use of the kitchen, home-like feeling, and less people-traffic than I’d run into at a hotel.

I don’t think we are on the same page. I’m not suggesting that staying at a house is or isn’t better than a hotel. Investors and Airbnb have completely messed up the American house market. That is no longer speculation or an opinion. Don’t be the demand for the supply.
