How does Holidu work?

Holidu compares holiday home prices from more than 100 booking sites in one place. We bundle all offered prices into a transparent overview so you can find accommodation at the best possible price. Our service is completely free for you.

Here is how it works:

  1. Enter your destination, travel dates, and number of guests.
  2. Browse the bundled results and compare prices in one overview.
  3. Click on the offer you like.
  4. Book directly on Holidu, or continue to the respective booking site to finalize your reservation.

We use image recognition to match the same property across different rental providers, which makes a fair price comparison possible.

According to what criteria does Holidu select the search results?

Holidu uses a dynamic, self-learning algorithm to sort and display search results. The order depends on the details you enter, the sorting preferences you choose, and several other factors.

Which search criteria influence the results?

The results are based on the information you enter when searching, including:

  • Destination: where you want to stay
  • Price range: your budget for accommodation
  • Number of guests: how many people the accommodation must accommodate
  • Accommodation type: such as hotel, villa, or apartment
  • Facilities and characteristics: features such as a pool or Wi-Fi
  • Provider remuneration: Holidu often receives compensation from third-party providers, and this may influence the position of a listing in the results

How can you sort your search results?

You can customize the order of your results by choosing one of the following sorting preferences:

  • Popularity: how often a listing is viewed or booked
  • Best offer: listings with optimal pricing or deals
  • Ratings: accommodation with the best reviews

Holidu also considers ranking among similar offers, comparing listings of similar type and quality, as well as click performance and booking success, where listings that attract more clicks or bookings may rank higher.

Is there a way to see results without remuneration influencing them?

Sorting by price, ratings, or popularity lets you focus on the factors that matter most to you. Compare several offers before you decide, since the best value for your trip may not appear first.

We hope this helps you navigate Holidu with ease. If you have more questions, explore the rest of our Help Center.
