Thanks to our parent company, Quendoo, we can now deliver key tools that are fundamental to any owner seeking to create or bolster their online presence and establish inexpensive avenues to achieve direct bookings. Every holiday property owner shares common problems and the biggest has to be the commissions payable to large booking portals. The Holy Grail for the vacation rental sector has become direct bookings and the allure of converting 15-20% of revenue into clear profit each season instead of paying a commission invoice. Arendoo is proud to announce that we can now offer such tools to our clients as we aim to help them lose dependency on big portals, take back control of their property’s revenue and actively drive their own growth.
Whether you own a single studio apartment or an entire complex of villas, our software has been built specifically for your needs and will deliver increased profits.
