Airbnb dose not allow homeowners from getting the E-Mail addresses or telephone numbers of a renter or the rentee. I understand that, as they do not charge the homeowner to be on the site. They need to make money. In my experience this does not work well for me as rentors want to ask questions and speak to the homeowner. Airbnb does not allow that. All in all the Airbnb model does not work for me or the person renting my villa. Examples are questions about ferries, rental cars, where to buy food, scuba diving. Trying to answer those types of questions require a telephone call not E-Mails. Also Airbnb keeps the rental funds until the rentor is in the villa. Just does not work for me.
So far and I checked yesterday Homeaway/VRBO still works for me and gets the information to my prospective guests.
