The vacation rental list contains all the properties that a partner wishes to show on Google, including: name, geocode locations, image and website URLs, and amenities. If you're unsure whether your property is a vacation rental or hotel, refer to our categories for hotels and lodging businesses.
Instructions
There are 2 ways to provide your vacation rental listing. Learn more about how to set up your vacation rental listing.
[Recommended] Option 1: XML list feed
This is the preferred approach for all new partners. It provides the most flexibility and easily scales to larger inventories. For initial ingestion, partners will share a list with Google based on the specifications provided in the vacation rentals XML list feed.
Option 2: Structured data markup
This is an alternative approach. Partners mark up their site with schema.org annotations for Google to crawl and generate the listing feed. Partners also provide a sitemap that includes all their listings.
After the listing feed is provided to Google, ingestion can take approximately 2 to 4 weeks, during which Google will be in touch with partners to assist with troubleshooting and optimizing their feeds.
