About Florida Rental By Owners – FLARBO

Florida Rental By Owners launched in 2014 when two hosts decided on a better way to advertise rentals. Restrictive ‘big box’ style listing sites created barriers in the booking cycle with high traveler & host fees and policy restrictions. FLARBO was created so that hosts could take control of their reservations, where travelers also save money. To date, the site has over 16,700,000 views with hundreds of thousands of inquiries. FLARBO hosts offer short term and seasonal stays that are unique to the Florida traveler whether they need a pet friendly rental, beach house, waterfront dock or more. FLARBO leads the way in Florida vacation rentals.
