Description
From the marketplace listing
Find vacation rentals from independent hosts and book directly on the host's own website. Tell hostDirect your destination, dates, guest count, and preferences such as pets, bedrooms, a pool, or a hot tub. Browse cards with photos and property details. Search prices are estimates and may exclude fees and taxes. Open a stay to check its amenities, policies, and live quote for your dates. Without dates, prices are indicative where available; availability is not confirmed. Follow a booking link to the host's website with your dates and guest count. You complete payment and receive reservation confirmation there. hostDirect does not collect card details, charge you, or confirm a reservation in chat. Where offered, request a different price. After your approval, hostDirect sends your name, email, phone number, stay details, and target price to the property manager. You may receive an immediate offer or a later email reply. A price request or offer is not a reservation.
