GBI booked a condo in Vail for January… I booked a condo in Vail for January that slept 15 people through VRBO and Leavetown. Full payment was taken by Leavetown for the reservation. About a week later they emailed to tell me my reservation was canceled. I contacted them and they said it was a technological error and it was unfortunate. I explained I had 15 people coming from 6 cities across the US and it would be impossible to find another place that slept 15 people in that location and with the amenities I wanted without now paying probably 5 times more than my previous reservation. Both Leavetown and VRBO said they would assist me in finding another location. After and hour or so of work by both parties they both said their weren't any other properties available and left it up to me to find my own. Neither offered any compensation. Very horrible experience. I would never be comfortable booking with Leavtown and I am now unsure of VRBO.

CATreats you like an actual human being My experience with Leavetown has been awesome so far and I haven't even arrived at our condo we booked due to, of course, flight cancellations and rebooking. I booked one month in Mexico by finding the property on air bnb, but was advised by the host I would be given a monthly discount if I spoke with an agent through the live chat option on the Leavetown. It was super easy to book with the agent, as soon as I opened the chat I was speaking to an actual HUMAN, which is unheard of in this day and age. So that was a plus. She applied the discount for me and we were all set. We were suppose to head out today, but as we arrived at the airport we were informed out flight was cancelled. While waiting in like to rebook our flights, I was able to chat with an agent again easily through the live chat, and was told that we would adjust the stay by an extra day with no additional cost. Honestly, you don't know how happy I was that it was so easy and they were so accommodating. I've had previous experiences with booking trough Air bnb that, in my opinion, gives the hosts too much power to abuse if they so choose to. It was just refreshing to be treated like a human being during this pandemic and not just someone to be taken advantage of. Thank you!

GBExcellent Customer Service My family and I recently went on a trip to Universal and booked through Leavetown to stay at Lake Buena Vista Resort Village and Spa in Orlando. Upon arrival at 1am, the resort gave us keys to a two bedroom and two bath when we reserved a three bedroom and two bath. When we told the front desk that we were given the wrong room, they told us that we had to call the third party (Leavetown) and that they did not have a three bedroom available anyway. The resort employees blamed Leavetown for the incorrect reservation and told us to call to deal with the problem. We had an email showing the reservation confirmation number as well as the information that showed that we had reserved a three bedroom. I called Leavetown and spoke to Marc Gardiola who verified that we did reserve a three bedroom and that he would speak with the front desk to fix this situation. After Marc spoke with the front desk, it turned out that the resort had incorrectly made the reservation, and we ended up getting our three bedroom and two bath that we had originally reserved (when the resort originally told us that they no longer has a three bedroom for the time that we were staying at the resort). Marc was not only helpful but also had excellent customer service and confirmed the correct information for us. I am grateful for him taking the time to speak with the hotel to fix this problem; otherwise, the resort would not have helped us in any way.

GBTried to book holiday accommodation… Tried to book holiday accommodation with them In Portugal. Simple request like can you tell me the measurement of a bed and this has proven impossible. They do not know the measurements of the beds on the properties that they are marketing. All they will tell you is, it will be from 137 cm to 150 cm which is fine if you are vertically challenged but not good if you are a fully grown adult.
