In 2017 Avantio presented the brand and the newest vacation rental software developments at our stand in the VRMA National Conference 2017, this year held in Orlando.
Vacation Rental Management Association meeting 2017
The tools we presented this year were just some of the features which are essential for agencies in the USA and Canadian markets to achieve a high level of growth in 2018 and onwards. They have been developed with a focus on helping our clients to increase significant levels of profitability whilst making savings in the resources needed to manage the day to day tasks within the management software.

The development which caused the greatest excitement at the VRMA 2017 was the Check-in online feature. The concept of the Check-in online is to save significant resources obtaining the guests data before and at check-in. By automating this process, agencies reduce the time they need to enter data. They can use this resources to focus on improving the actual check-in process through building positive relationships with the guests and streamlining the process for a better guest experience.
“We waste so many hours a week just doing the paperwork of checking-in guests!”

A feature which gained a lot of interest was the Guest Area, an exciting tourist-intranet which incorporates the Check-in online feature, to encourage smooth transactional processes, increase repeat sales and provide added value information to the guest before and after Check-in.
“That would save my staff a lot of needless emails.”
Another aspect which created a stir at the VRMA national conference was the launch of the 2018 vacation rental website designs.
Many agencies we spoke to were interested learning about the functionalities and tools for their vacation rental website to attract potential guests and increase conversions. We heard concerns about websites looking old, not being multi-lingual or multi-currency, not providing good conversion rates and failing to give the quality image of the agency.
“I don’t like my website, the design looks antiquated”
With the maturity of the market, it is increasingly important to ensure that the website design that reflects your agency, provides the functionalities that your agency needs. The new features and possibilities for customization that our new vacation rental website designs incorporate are designed to maximise booking reservations for 2018. These include:
- Check-in online
- Owners log-in
- Providers’ intranet
- Special offers, discounts
- Guest reviews
- Categories
- Guest area
