Update: All-Inclusive Fee Structure

Summary

Effective December 2025 - Across the vacation rental industry, travelers increasingly expect transparent, upfront pricing. They want to see the true cost of a stay immediately—no extra clicks, no surprises, and no manual calculations.

To meet these expectations and improve clarity across our platform, we’ve updated how fees are displayed in search results.

What Has Changed

Mandatory fees are now included in the weekly rate shown in search results.

All required fees—such as cleaning fees, administrative fees, and any other mandatory charges—are now automatically rolled into the weekly rental rate displayed in search results.

Vacationers will see a more accurate, comprehensive price at a glance.

Optional fees remain separate

Optional, add-on fees (e.g., linens, pet fees, optional amenities) will continue to be itemized individually and are not included in the total weekly rate shown in search results.

Search results now display a true total weekly rental cost

This update helps vacationers compare listings more easily and improves transparency, trust, and booking confidence.

Our Recommendations

Review your mandatory and optional fee categories

Make sure optional fees—such as linens, pets, or early check-in—are categorized correctly so they are not included in your mandatory total.

Use each fee’s description field to clarify when it applies or any limitations (e.g., “Dogs only” for a pet fee).

Use only the designated fee fields

We strongly encourage you to enter fees only in their designated mandatory or optional fee fields so that vacationers see an accurate, all-inclusive price.

If you add additional fees in the “Additional Pricing Info” text box, your listing may appear lower in search results, and the displayed price may not be accurate.

Tip: If a fee does not apply to your listing, simply leave it blank—there’s no need to enter “0” or “none.”

Check your listing in search

After updating your fees, take a moment to view your property in search results to ensure everything displays as expected.

What Else Has Changed?

A more intuitive inquiry form

The vacationer inquiry form now includes a built-in calendar, so guests can easily indicate their preferred travel dates.

Contact Form - Check-In and Check-Out Dates

For weekly rates, a price breakdown is provided displaying the rate, required and optional fees, and taxes.

Contact Form - Pricing Details

This enhancement leads to more targeted, higher-quality inquiries. Vacationers will:

  • See the total cost upfront
  • Know whether your home fits their budget
  • Understand availability more quickly

This should reduce common questions such as “What’s the total cost?” or “Is this week available?”—ultimately improving the experience for both you and your guests.
