A vacation rental video made from your listing photos.

Where the video works

Major booking platforms are built around photos, and their rules on links and media change, so check what your platform accepts before relying on it. The reliable places for a property video are your own booking website, social media accounts for the property and paid social ads.

Hosts on investor forums still say photos come first. Treat the video as a way to reach new guests on social media, not as a replacement for a strong photo gallery.

Shots that sell a stay

• Open on the view, pool, hot tub or the feature guests book for.
• Show the main living space and kitchen next.
• Include every bedroom so groups can picture the sleeping setup.
• End on the outdoor area or the neighbourhood.
• Add the location and booking link as on-screen text in the app you post from.

Accuracy matters for reviews

Guests compare the stay with what they saw. Check the finished video against the photos, avoid anything that makes rooms look larger than they are, and update it after any change to the property.

Questions

Can I upload the video to my Airbnb listing?

Check Airbnb’s current options for your account. Many hosts use the video on social media and their own booking site instead, where they control the format and the link.

Does the video include music?

No. Biyra delivers a silent file so you can add licensed music in Instagram or TikTok.
