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

Yes, you can update your property name and ownership information on Holidu. However, there are some important distinctions depending on where your property appears, as your listings are distributed across multiple channels.

Changing property name on Holidu

You can easily update your property name directly in your Holidu listing. This change will be reflected on the Holidu platform immediately. To do this, log into your host account, navigate to your property settings, and edit the property name in your listing details.

Understanding host name visibility 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 partner channels cannot be customized. This means Holidu appears as the host on those listings. 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, and 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:

On the Holidu channel

Your name appears as the Host, while Holidu is listed as the Manager. This allows guests booking directly through Holidu to see you as the property owner.

On your Direct Booking Website

Your name is visible in the "Your Host" section at the top of your Direct Booking Website page. You can also add a short bio here to build trust with guests and personalize your listing. Learn more about how to create and customize your Direct Booking Website by visiting our detailed guide on how to create and customize your host website.

Changing ownership information

If you need to update ownership information for your property, contact our support team. Changes to ownership may have legal and contractual implications, especially since your property is distributed across multiple partner channels. Our team can guide you through the necessary steps to ensure all information is updated correctly across all platforms.

Key takeaway

While you can change your property name on Holidu directly, host name visibility is limited on partner channels for compliance and trust reasons. Your personal information remains visible on Holidu's platform and your Direct Booking Website, where you can fully personalize your host profile and property details.
