How to find your Vrbo iCal link (and import other calendars)

20 October 2026 · 4 min read

Vrbo lets you share your property's calendar as a link and read other sites' calendars the same way. Here is where both settings live, and the one thing that makes Vrbo different.

Export: copy your Vrbo calendar link

1. Sign in to Vrbo and open your owner dashboard.
2. Pick the property, then open Calendar → Import / Export calendars.
3. Choose Export and copy the link. It usually contains vrbo.com/icalendar/ and ends in .ics.

Paste that link into the import setting of every other site you list on (or into Axorooms, which then passes it on to all of them).

Import: bring other calendars into Vrbo

1. On the same Import / Export calendars page, choose Import.
2. Paste the other site's link (for example your Airbnb export link) and give it a clear name.
3. Save. Nights booked on that site now show as unavailable on Vrbo after Vrbo's next read.

The catch: Vrbo reads slowly

Airbnb re-reads imported calendars about every 3 hours and Booking.com about every 2. Vrbo is often much slower, in many cases about once a day. That makes Vrbo the most likely place for a double booking when you list on several sites.

• Require at least one day of advance notice on Vrbo.
• When a peak-date booking comes in elsewhere, close those nights on Vrbo by hand as well.
• Check the imported calendar's status now and then. A link that stops working fails quietly.

Same steps for Vrbo's sister sites

Abritel (France), FeWo-direkt (Germany), Stayz (Australia), Bookabach (New Zealand) and AlugueTemporada (Brazil) run on the same system, so the menus are the same. Axorooms supports all of them.
