VROCNJ

Through our websites, travelers have access to quality vacation rentals while avoiding service fees and taxes charged by HomeAway, VRBO, AirBNB and other large online travel agencies. The fees and taxes they save by renting directly with the owner or a local Real Estate professional will save families 25% of more on their week at the shore!

Our Vacation Rental Listing Sites were created out of the frustration experienced by our founder, Duane Watlington. While managing his own Vacation Rental Properties on Long Beach Island with one of the “Big Name” listing sites, Duane recognized some drastic changes taking place with booking sites like VRBO and Homeaway. They were starting to require Vacation Rental Owners to accept online bookings like hotels and motels. In addition, they are now charging Vacationers a “service fee” when they book their vacation online, adding up to 15% to the vacationers cost to book the rental. In late 2018 these online travel agencies were required to start collecting NJ Sales Tax and Occupancy Tax, which add about another 12%, making vacationers pay 25% OR MORE for using their platforms!

Vacation Rentals Jersey Shore LLC, and our websites, were born out of these changes! It is our mission to provide Homeowners, Property Managers and Realtors with a “listing site” to promote their Vacation Rental properties. A site where you can manage your own calendar OR import one from your own website. A site where you can manage your reservations and keep track of your communications with your guests. Your guests will be able to search for RELEVANT Vacation Rentals! We won’t fill up the search results with properties from other locations. If they search “Gold Coast” they will get just Gold Coast homes.

Best of all, we won’t hide EITHER party’s contact information! We believe that Owners, Property Managers and Realtors like knowing who they are renting too, and that Vacationers prefer to be able to contact the owner before booking, to ask questions and go over all the details. So, try our site! Our subscription prices start at just $299 for the year! YOU control where your listing shows in the search results based on the package you subscribe to. Just one booking a year through our site will pay for itself when compared to the commissions and fees you will pay through other platforms.

Managing and promoting his own Vacation Rentals on LBI over the last 10 years has given Duane a lot of insight and knowledge on how to promote and fill as many rental weeks as possible. Over the last six years, Duane has been able to book his two vacation rentals FULL from Memorial Day through Kite Fest (Columbus Day weekend). In addition, he has been able to book many guests to stay in the off-season as well! VROCNJ and our other websites all offer FREE rental coaching!
