Vrbo gives discounts to those who book more than 7 days of accommodation

Want more discounts?

Traveling comfortably and economically is everyone's dream - and when we find a promotion that reduces the cost of accommodation just by staying a few extra days, it's even better. If you haven't heard of Vrbo, a vacation rental platform, is offering special discounts for bookings over 7 days. And yes, that can make all the difference to your budget.

If you're already planning an extended vacation, an out-of-town home office or even a strategic break somewhere quiet, this could be the right opportunity to save money and still enjoy yourself more calmly.

What is Vrbo?

Vrbo is a platform that connects travelers with owners of houses and apartments available for vacation rentals. Unlike other platforms where it is common to rent just a room or share space with a host, Vrbo focuses on renting out entire properties - offering more privacy, freedom and comfort.

Perfect for families, groups of friends, couples or even people who work remotely and prefer a more spacious environment than a hotel room.

And the difference this time? The progressive discounts for longer stays.

How does the Vrbo discount work for extended stays?

It's very simple: when you book more than 7 days in the same property, Vrbo shows you properties that offer automatic discount on the total amount of the stay. In many cases, hosts already set the discounted price in the listing itself, so you don't even need to apply a coupon.

For example:

• Reservations for 7 nights can be made for 6 nights.
• 10-night bookings can get up to 15% discount
• Some houses offer a free night every 7 nights

The logic is: the longer you stay, the less you pay per night. And the best part: no bureaucracy.

Where can you find these promotions?

In the Vrbo website or appyou can follow this path:

1. Search for your destination and enter dates of more than 7 nights
2. Use filters such as "Discounts on long stays"
3. Check out the signage in the ads with phrases like "discount on weekly stay" or "stay 7, pay 6"

The discount is already applied to the total price. Just check at the time of booking and confirm the conditions with the host if you want something personalized.

Which destinations usually offer this kind of promotion?

Both in Brazil and abroad, many hosts have already adopted this discount model for long stays. Here are some places where it's easy to find this advantage:

What are the benefits of staying longer than 7 days?

In addition to the discount, a longer stay brings a number of practical advantages:

• Better adaptation to the place
• More time to get to know the destination without rushing
• Savings on short journeys
• More flexibility in check-in and check-out
• Greater negotiating power with the host

And, of course, if you're traveling with family or friends, an extended stay helps to spread the costs among everyonemaking the experience more accessible.

Can I negotiate prices directly with the host?

Yes! Although many discounts are already set up automatically, you can contact the host via Vrbo chat and ask if any extra adjustments to the total amount are possible, especially if you plan to stay for two weeks or more.

In general, the longer you stay, the more likely you are to get free extra nights, cleaning included or more flexible hours.

Totally. The platform is global, has been operating in the market for over 20 years and offers:

• Secure payment directly through the website or app

The ideal is always to do everything within the platform - no outside payments - and to choose properties with good ratings and real photos. This gives you even more security when closing the deal.

Can I pay by card? Can I pay in installments?

Yes! Vrbo accepts international credit cards and, depending on the property and the configuration of the host, you can split the payment into up to two parts: a down payment at the time of booking and the rest a few days before the stay.

If you prefer, you can filter by properties with flexible payment, free cancellation and more conditions that fit into your planning.

What if I need to cancel?

Many Vrbo properties offer free cancellation policy up to a deadlineThis is usually 14 days before check-in. Ideally, you should check this before you book and read the terms carefully.

The platform itself shows you the options on the payment screen and on the property listing. This way, you can avoid surprises and book with greater peace of mind.

More time, more savings and less running around
