Beyond Airbnb: The Full Vacation Rental Market

The short-term rental market extends far beyond Airbnb. VRBO, Booking.com, Expedia, and dozens of regional platforms serve guests worldwide. A property's total revenue potential includes bookings from all platforms, not just one. Limiting your analysis to a single platform understates the true earning potential of any vacation rental property.

Multi-Platform Revenue

Most STR hosts list on 2-3 platforms simultaneously. While Airbnb holds approximately 20% of the global vacation rental market, Booking.com dominates Europe and Asia, and VRBO captures a significant share of family travel in the US. AirROI's 20M+ property dataset captures performance across platforms, giving you a more complete revenue picture than Airbnb-only calculators. When you evaluate a property in Barcelona or Bali, you need data that reflects how guests actually book in those markets -- not just one platform's slice.

International Coverage

AirROI covers 190+ countries. Whether you are evaluating a villa in Bali, an apartment in Barcelona, a chalet in the Swiss Alps, or a beach house in Costa Rica, AirROI provides revenue estimates based on local comparable property data in the property's native currency. This global reach matters because international STR markets often offer higher yields than saturated US markets, and investors increasingly look beyond their home country for opportunities.

Market Context

The global STR market is valued at $134 billion in 2024 and projected to grow at an 11.4% CAGR (Grand View Research, 2025–2030). This growth is driven by traveler preference for home-like accommodations, remote work flexibility, and expanding platform reach into new markets. With Airbnb alone reporting 8M+ active listings and 5M+ hosts globally (DemandSage), the vacation rental industry represents one of the fastest-growing segments in real estate investment.

Why Coverage Matters: What AirROI Covers

For international investors and multi-platform operators, coverage is the most important differentiator. AirROI's dataset spans 190+ countries with data from every major STR platform.
