Can I change the property name or ownership information in my property ad?

Yes, you can update your property name and certain ownership information in your property ad. However, there are some important distinctions regarding how this information appears across different channels where your property is listed.

Changing your property name

You can modify your property name directly in your Holidu listing settings. This change will be reflected on the Holidu channel and your Direct Booking Website. When you update your property name, it helps guests find your listing more easily and gives your property a professional presentation.

Understanding host information across channels

When your property is published on Holidu, it is also distributed across our partner channels, such as Booking.com, Airbnb, and Vrbo. For technical and contractual reasons, the host name shown on these external channels cannot be customized. This means Holidu appears as the host on those partner ads.

This setup ensures that:

• Guests can book through trusted partner channels with a recognizable name attached
• The connection between Holidu and external channels stays compliant with channel rules
• Your property reaches a wider audience while we manage the channel-side administration for you

Where your name appears as the host

There are two specific cases where your name will appear as the host instead of Holidu's:

1. On the Holidu channel

Your name appears as the Host, while Holidu is listed as the Manager. This clearly identifies you to potential guests booking directly through Holidu.

2. On your Direct Booking Website

Your name is visible in the "Your Host" section at the top of your property page. You can also add a short bio here to build trust with guests and personalize their experience.

Summary

You have full control over your property name and host information on Holidu's own channels. However, when your property is syndicated to partner platforms like Booking.com, Airbnb, and Vrbo, the host name cannot be customized for technical and contractual reasons. This approach protects your privacy while ensuring your property reaches the widest possible audience of potential guests.
