Your property is on Airbnb — but not where travelers start searching.
The majority of travelers begin their accommodation search on Google. They search "villa rental Algarve" or "apartment Lisbon July" — and the results that appear first are not always OTA listings. Google Vacation Rentals surfaces properties directly in search results and Google Maps, alongside hotels, without requiring the traveler to visit an OTA first.
For operators who only list on Airbnb and Booking.com, those Google searches reach competitors who have connected their listings — or who appear through a direct booking channel that Google can link to. Without a direct booking destination, a property cannot appear in Google Vacation Rentals. Without appearing there, a share of potential guests looking on Google never see the listing at all.
HostSync connects Google Vacation Rentals to your operation through two things: the Booking Engine — which creates the direct booking page Google links to — and the channel integration, which keeps availability and rates accurate in Google's feed from the same place you manage all other channels.
From Google search to direct booking — in one flow.
Where the Google Vacation Rentals integration is active, travelers who find your property on Google are taken directly to your HostSync Booking Engine to complete a commission-free reservation.

What the Google Vacation Rentals integration enables in HostSync.
Google Search visibility
Properties connected through HostSync can appear in Google Vacation Rentals search results when travelers search for accommodation — putting your listing in front of guests at the point of active search.
Direct booking link
Google search results link directly to your HostSync Booking Engine — the guest-facing booking page where travelers can check availability and complete a commission-free direct reservation.
Commission-free reservations
Bookings completed through your HostSync Booking Engine — including those arriving via Google — are direct reservations with no OTA commission deducted. HostSync charges a platform fee, not a per-booking commission.
Availability accuracy
Availability shown on Google is updated through HostSync's Channel Manager when reservations arrive on connected channels — helping prevent search results showing dates that are already booked elsewhere.
Rate display
Nightly rates displayed in Google search results come from the rate data connected to your HostSync Booking Engine — reflecting the pricing you manage in HostSync rather than requiring a separate rate feed.
Analytics support
Bookings arriving through Google Vacation Rentals appear in HostSync's Analytics alongside all other reservation sources — where Analytics is active — supporting visibility into which channels produce direct bookings.
Connect to Google Vacation Rentals through HostSync.
Activate the HostSync Booking Engine for your property
Google Vacation Rentals requires a direct booking destination. HostSync uses the Booking Engine to create the guest-facing booking page that Google links to from search results. The Booking Engine must be active and configured before the Google integration can be set up.
Connect your property feed to Google Vacation Rentals
Configure the Google Vacation Rentals connection in HostSync's integration settings. HostSync submits your property data — availability, rates and booking link — to Google's vacation rental feed once the connection is authorized.
Receive direct bookings from Google Search
Once Google indexes your property, travelers searching for accommodation can find your listing in Google Search results and book directly through your HostSync Booking Engine — with no OTA commission on those reservations.
Google Vacation Rentals works with these HostSync modules.
Booking Engine
The HostSync Booking Engine provides the direct booking page that Google Vacation Rentals links to from search results — the destination where Google traffic converts to commission-free reservations.

Availability and rates fed to Google Vacation Rentals are managed through HostSync's Channel Manager — the same source as Airbnb, Booking.com, VRBO and Expedia — keeping all channels consistent.
