CalBook

Can CalBook combine several booking sites for one property? ▾

Yes. It merges that property's Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com calendars into a single feed.

Where do I find my Airbnb calendar link? ▾

In Airbnb, open Listings, pick the listing, then go to Calendar → Availability → Connect calendars → Export Calendar and copy the link. Airbnb gives one link per listing, so copy each listing separately.

Where do I find my VRBO calendar link? ▾

In your VRBO owner dashboard, go to Calendar → Export Calendar and copy the iCal link.

How do I add a calendar link into Airbnb? ▾

In Airbnb, open Listings, pick the listing, then go to Calendar → Availability → Connect calendars → Import Calendar. Paste the link and give it a name.

How do I add a calendar link into VRBO? ▾

In your VRBO owner dashboard, go to Calendar → Import Calendar and paste the link.

Can I sync Airbnb and VRBO to each other directly? ▾

Yes. Export the link from each site, import it into the other, and a booking on one will block those dates on the other.

What is the downside of syncing Airbnb and VRBO directly? ▾

You still have to check each site separately, because neither one becomes a single combined calendar.

Can I see all my bookings in one calendar instead? ▾

Yes. Connect your booking sites to CalBook once, and you get one combined calendar to follow in Google Calendar, Outlook, or your phone.

How do I sync my combined calendar back into Airbnb or VRBO? ▾

Use the "All except" export link for that site. It leaves out that site's own bookings so it does not re-import them.

How often does my calendar update? ▾

Your connected calendars are checked at least every 5 minutes, so new bookings appear automatically.
