What Is the Vacation Rental World Summit
VRWS started as a simple idea in 2013: connecting the global VR Community – Hosts, Property Managers & Industry Pros – through an independent conference to help attendees understand what’s coming, how to get more bookings, streamline workflows and maximize rental income.
It seemed to resonate. The first online editions gathered 15,000+ attendees from 5 continents and 50 countries. Many pros improved their business through the advice shared at the event.
This led to the big leap and VRWS landed on physical grounds from the 3rd edition: Barcelona (2016), Florence (2017) and Lake Como (2018).
If you’re looking for the best place to network and learn from some of the most progressive and helpful minds in our industry look no further!

LAKE COMO
AN AMAZING LOCATION…
Moments from VRWS Previous Edition
“Hi. My name is Antonio Bortolotti and I am a property owner just like you. I run successful rentals in Sardinia and on Lake Maggiore, Italy and I’ve been helping out fellow rentalpreneurs worldwide getting their properties fully booked for over 13 years. I am hugely rewarded when I see that I can truly impact fellow peers’ lives by solving their #1 problem and that is why I teamed up with some of the smartest minds in our industry to bring you the best, most actionable and often costless solutions to ensure your business thrives.”
Founder of Vacation Rental Secrets and the Fully Booked Formula online training program, Antonio Bortolotti is a successful ‘Rentalpreneur‘, speaker, consultant and coach. His award winning properties feature in national and international press, as well as on TV. The British ‘Observer‘ named his Casa Teulada ‘One of the Best 20 Holiday Villas In The Mediterranean‘ and the ‘Sunday Times‘ recommended it as ‘The Best Deal-For-Two‘ in the Italian summer. While managing his rentals remotely with just a laptop and a wi-fi connection, Antonio regularly speaks at major VR industry events sharing his strategies for maximizing rental income. The Vacation Rental World Summit – now at its 6th edition – is his way to bring a wealth of golden nuggets, proven strategies and current best solutions to you.

Absolutely worth the fee! Thank you, Antonio! I already feel like I can gain my freedom with a lot less effort than I thought I would need. I appreciate the pdf downloads too. I learned something from each of the presenters and there’s so much information that I will probably go back and listen again. Quite overwhelming but uplifting too!
I am SO glad to have come across your Vacation Rental World Summit – you have opened my eye to so many things!!! And I have to give you my thanks for introducing me to such valuable learning tools, gurus etc.
Thank you for this, I am beyond inspired! Each year is better!
Wow. Amazing presentation. My biggest take away – the power of full screen images. I’m off the implement that right now!
You had me so inspired, that I’m not only going to rebuild my “already” nice website, but I’m going to start NOW!!!
Love it! Great info. You make it look easy! Biggest takeaway….loose the nervousness! This is not rocket science but doable by anyone with a little motivation.
Kudos for your Summit. Very well done. Excellent seminar. Much to think about. Much to do. Because I’m new to taking a professional approach to managing my 3 properties in Guatemala, I have much to see, learn, and absorb. My notes make up a pile of paper 1/2 inch thick. I ran my computer out of ink, and finished off a brand new gel pen! Ten days ago I returned to Guatemala for the half year, and brought all those notes and copies with me. United Airlines was pleased too: $40 for the extra luggage. Still there is much to process and to implement in building my rental business. Again, Muchas Gracias Señor for this opportunity.
Antonio, I’m blown away. I was supposed to be on a plane during this session but the plane had a mechanical problem so I’m in the terminal listening to you instead. Am I ever glad that flight’s been delayed! I have eaten up each bit of knowledge you shared with a spoon and am completely on board to make my time to get my site ship-shape and producing (far more) independently of the listing sites I’ve relied upon for too long. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you.
You put an incredible amount of time and energy into this Antonio and it was money very well spent in my humble opinion! I could not justify the cost of going to Austin this weekend for a one day HomeAway sales pitch, but the cost for unlimited access to theses sessions was a great investment for me! Thank you! Loved the social media session. Feeling more empowered and less depressed over the Expedia news. I really like the fact that we can miss one session and view it later or view some of these again! The timing for all of this is absolutely perfect!
Your session on revamping our websites was incredibly valuable! I wrote a detailed list of all of the enhancements I want to make. I especially appreciate all of the information about website testing from the user standpoint: I didn’t realize that existed. Thanks!
