# Vrbo API for vacation-rental search and stay quotes > Search Vrbo for a destination and stay, then quote any rental for exact dates: Vrbo’s nightly figure, its fee-inclusive total, the payment model and whether the dates can be booked. Structured JSON, priced per call. Canonical page: https://scrapercompany.com/vrbo-api. Endpoints and prices checked against the API on 2026-10-11. Vrbo is Expedia Group’s vacation-rental site, and rental managers who price whole homes, cabins and condos against their local market track it alongside Airbnb. Vrbo’s connectivity APIs carry a host’s own rates and calendar from property-management software to Vrbo; they do not show what other rentals charge. This API reads what vrbo.com shows a guest: up to 50 listings for a search with their prices, and a quote for any one rental and stay. Each rental has two IDs. The listing id in the URL, such as 20218736ha, is not the numeric property_id Vrbo prices with; search returns both, and a quote accepts either. Vrbo shows a nightly figure and a stay total labelled “All fees included” without itemising cleaning fees, service fees or taxes, so the API returns that total and the label rather than a breakdown it would have to guess. Prices come from the US site in US dollars. ## What you get - `listings[].property_id, listing_id`: the numeric id quotes use, and the id in the Vrbo URL - `listings[].nightly, total`: Vrbo’s nightly figure and stay total for the searched dates, in Vrbo’s recommended order - `summary.matched_properties`: how many rentals Vrbo matched for the destination - `property.available, availability`: whether the stay can be booked, and Vrbo’s reason when it cannot - `fees_included`: repeats Vrbo’s “All fees included” label on the total - `payment_model`: pay now, pay later, or pay later with a deposit - `offers[]`: each rate plan with its total, nightly price and Vrbo’s messages, such as “Reserve now, pay deposit” - `provenance`: when the price was observed, for which market and in which currency ## Endpoints and price per call | Endpoint | Method and path | What it returns | Credits per successful call | Price per call | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Rental search](https://scrapercompany.com/docs/reference/vrbo-search) | `POST /v1/ota/vrbo/search` | Vrbo’s recommended listings for a destination and stay, up to 50 per call, with prices | 2 credits | $0.0020 on Starter, $0.0012 on Growth, $0.0008 on Scale | | [Stay quote](https://scrapercompany.com/docs/reference/vrbo-quote) | `POST /v1/ota/vrbo` | Nightly price, total, payment model and availability for one rental and stay | 8 credits | $0.0078 on Starter, $0.0048 on Growth, $0.0032 on Scale | Pricing: Free $0/month for 1,000 credits; Starter $49/month for 50,000 credits; Growth $149/month for 250,000 credits; Scale $399/month for 1,000,000 credits.

Not for reading prices across rentals. Vrbo’s connectivity APIs are for property-management software that sends a host’s rates and availability to Vrbo, and Expedia Group offers Vrbo inventory through its Rapid API only to a limited number of travel partners. This API is independent of Vrbo and Expedia Group and reads what vrbo.com shows a guest. ### Which Vrbo ID do I need? Quotes use the numeric property_id that search returns, which is not the id in the Vrbo URL. If you only have the URL id, such as 20218736ha from vrbo.com/20218736ha, send it as listing_id and the API resolves it with one extra page load. ### Does the price include cleaning fees and taxes? Vrbo labels its stay total “All fees included”, and the API repeats that label as fees_included. Vrbo does not itemise cleaning fees, service fees or taxes for this request, so the response has the total and the nightly figure, not a fee breakdown. ### What happens when the dates are not available? The quote returns available: false with Vrbo’s reason, such as a minimum stay or dates already taken, and it is billed like any other answer. Set retry_min_stay and the API also prices the minimum stay once and returns it as property.min_stay_quote, without replacing the stay you asked for. ### Which Vrbo markets are supported? The US site, www.vrbo.com, priced in US dollars. It is the only Vrbo point of sale that has been verified, so market accepts US only. ### Do failed requests cost credits? No. A failed or blocked call (any 4xx or 5xx response) costs 0 credits, and so does a search page that comes back empty. You pay only for successful results. ### How do I get an API key? Create an account on the sign-up page. Public sign-up is invite-only during the beta, so join the waitlist there and we will email you when your account is ready. The Free plan includes 1,000 credits a month, and the API is free while it is in beta. You create and rotate keys yourself in the dashboard. ## Read next - [Expedia and Vrbo guide](https://scrapercompany.com/docs/guides/expedia-vrbo) - [Vacation rental pricing](https://scrapercompany.com/use-cases/vacation-rental-pricing) - [Airbnb API](https://scrapercompany.com/airbnb-api) - [All APIs](https://scrapercompany.com/apis.md)
