Note before integration
- Create a complete Airbnb account prior to setting up Airbnb in MyVR
- There are two sync options with Airbnb: “Everything” or “Pricing and availability”. We recommend selecting “Everything”, so all listing information will be managed in MyVR.
- Reservations and inquiries are managed within the MyVR account.
- Review our Channel Cheat Sheet to understand how the Airbnb channel functions compared to other channels you may be using on MyVR.
