VRBO check-in guide
VRBO check-in instructions guests can follow without calling
Clear VRBO check-in instructions matter most when guests are tired, carrying bags, or arriving after dark. The right guide shows the exact path from parking to the door.
What this solves
- Explain arrival time, parking, entrance, and keys in order.
- Add photos for confusing entrances, gates, doors, and lockboxes.
- Give guests backup help before they need to call.
- Share one full guide link with the booking guest and group.
Write instructions in the order guests move
Do not start with the lockbox if guests first need to find parking or a gate. Write the sequence from street to key.
Use photos when words are not enough
Photos can prevent wrong-door moments, especially in apartment buildings, resorts, and properties with multiple entrances.
- Street view or driveway photo.
- Entrance, gate, or building door photo.
- Lockbox, keypad, or smart lock photo.
- Apartment door or unit marker photo.

Frequently asked questions
Should VRBO check-in instructions include photos?

Can one check-in guide work for VRBO and Airbnb?
