Question 1

What is Search by ID?

Accepted Answer

Search by ID is a free utility tool that allows you to quickly access vacation rental listings on VRBO and Airbnb using their unique property ID numbers. Instead of searching through filters, you can go directly to a specific listing.

Question 2

How do I find a property ID?

Accepted Answer

Property IDs are typically found in the URL of a listing. For VRBO, the ID appears after vrbo.com/ (e.g., vrbo.com/1234567). For Airbnb, the room ID appears after airbnb.com/rooms/ (e.g., airbnb.com/rooms/12345678).

Question 3

Is this service free to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Search by ID is completely free to use. There are no hidden fees, subscriptions, or sign-up requirements. Simply enter a property ID and you'll be redirected to the listing.

Question 4

Does this tool work with all VRBO and Airbnb listings?

Accepted Answer

This tool generates direct links to listings based on the ID you provide. If the listing exists and is publicly available, you'll be able to view it. However, some listings may be unavailable, private, or have been removed from the platform.

Question 5

Why would I use this instead of searching directly on VRBO or Airbnb?

Accepted Answer

This tool is useful when you already have a property ID from a friend's recommendation, a saved bookmark, or a previous search. It saves time by taking you directly to the listing without navigating through the platform's search filters.
