This Go Vrbo to the Outer Banks in North Carolina – Check out our trip board! #Vrbo post is sponsored by Vrbo.
We are avid travelers in this family and we are always planning our next trip or two or three. We take our travel seriously. Every summer we head to the beach a few times with other family members. To make it easier on all of us, I use Vrbo and their fabulous Trip Boards to plan everything out and share with everyone. We hope that you enjoy this Go Vrbo to the Outer Banks in North Carolina – Check out our trip board! #Vrbo post.
Since we travel as a family and this includes our extended family, we needed a place to keep all of the information. Using emails was getting a little crazy because things were getting or we were missing deadlines to book because we just weren't organized. Enter Vrbo, their amazing Trip Boards and so much more. Vrbo makes is so easy to plan your next vacation.
Get to know VrboVrbo, pronounced “VER-boh” (now you see how the blog post title rhymes?) is the place to go for families and friends to plan their dream vacations by booking vacation homes, condos, resorts, cabins and more. VER-boh is the new way to say the Vrbo name. Fans have pronounced the brand name like that for years and now the company is officially embracing it.
Vrbo’s Bang for Your Buck Index is such a helpful way to find destinations offering the most value for the money and that you might not have otherwise considered. This is important to me since we plan so many trips, I love being able to know how I can save money with my next destination.
”We already know families and groups of friends appreciate the value of renting a vacation home, but travelers want to know exactly where they can get the most for their money. So we dug into the Vrbo data to find out where homeowners are renting places out to others for the lowest average cost per night,” said Vrbo travel expert Melanie Fish. ”Our Bang for Your Buck Index takes care of the price comparisons so you can spend less time planning and more time making memories.”
Vrbo Trip Boards Make Vacation Planning EasyVrbo’s Trip Boards make it easy to plan vacations with friends and family by allowing travelers to create custom Trip Boards with their favorite properties. Trip Boards can then be easily shared with family and friends. Everyone can then vote and comment which allows us to choose the perfect place for our vacation.
I just rented our Thanksgiving cabin on Vrbo. For the past years, my family and I have rented a place for Thanksgiving in the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Georgia. My sister & her three kids, my father & stepmother plus my family (husband and three kids) have made this our yearly tradition. We cook a huge dinner and invite people from all over. As a family, we spend the entire week together and end it with the lighting of the tree in downtown Blue Ridge. Vrbo makes this trip so much easier because of the Trip Board. In fact, if you look at all of my boards, you will see the past five years of cabin rentals on our Trip Boards. We love Vrbo that much. 
I manage almost everything that I can on my phone and vacation planning is no different. The Vrbo App offers push-notifications which means I can stay up to date on Trip Board activity in real-time. I can see the votes and the comments to plan the best trip possible.

Vrbo sounds like a great way to keep trip planning on track. It is very easy to get out of sync and confused when trying to coordinate with other travel partners.
I’ve never used VRBO but after reading your post it’s something I would consider next time 🙂
I love the idea of vrbo but I just don’t trust them. The last time we stayed at a vrbo we brought home bed bugs! I’m sure they all aren’t bad though. You just have to be careful!
That really seems like an issue that was very specific to a home rather than the entire company of Vrbo. They have over 2 million homes worldwide. It seems a little over the top to not trust a company because of one home. I stayed in over 80 Vrbo homes and never had a bedbug once.
Interesting topic to think about to think about how it is better to act in front of this choice.
Glad to learn about Vrbo and even how to pronounce it correctly. We love road trips and have done several around in the world including US but only the west coast with booking with airbnb. Thanks for your honest review on Vrbo will certainly look into in for my next trip.
Thanks for sharing this nice review of the trip planning app and I should really give it a try.
I am not familiar with Vrbo but I am going to check it out. We are planning a trip to Spain in September and this sounds like a perfect way to organize.
This post is right on time! I was asking a friend about VRBO, but she didn’t know much about it. I will be downloading the app and making a trip board because we have family coming in from Japan and India that want to stay with us, but I feel like a home from VRBO would be a bit better. I am really excited to utilize VRBO
Vrbo’s Trip Boards look so interesting as it can help me plan my travel. I hope I can use this soon. I’ll tell my best friend too as we have an upcoming Guam trip on August!
I love to be as organized as possible when it’s our family or extended family vacations. I’m going to have to check this out for our next vacation!
I would love to head to North Carolina to visit Vrbo, do love that they have an app available sounds like a great way to plan the holiday with no hassle at all
Cool! I’m going to check out Vrbo! Looks like you had a fabulous vacation!
I had never heard of this app before. It sounds so helpful, Ill need to download it next time we go on vacation.
Love trip planning and everything travel related! Can’t wait to be back in the States to explore these parts a little more.
Vrbo sounds soo amaziing! I will keep this in mind for future travels.
I really want to try one of these but for Palm Springs!! Now I am convinced I should try!

We like to get in at least one beach trip every year as well. We don’t get to go as often as we like but, we’re grateful for what we get!
I absolutely LOVE the area you visited. The people up there are just SO nice! Always makes me want to go back.

I visited Norh Carolina many times but have never experienced the outer banks. Seem like a great place to discover using the trip tool you describe.
