Rental listing site or social media?

OTA = Online Travel Agency, which means those sites that sell the booking and take the payment for you.

Take your choice now Facebook has Marketplace where one can add your advertisement.

Thanks. Facebook Marketplace appears limited to just certain categories of goods to buy/sell, and which are available within a fairly short radius from where you are placed. It's a start, and it might one day broaden and expand into areas of a kind which would not suit the OTAs!

I read about this on a Spanish travel website.
https://www.cerodosbe.com/es/viajeros/i ... 4_102.html
basically the article states that at the moment the greatest number of apartments for rent is in the United States.It has started to list rentals in a few the larger cities in Spain.
The US Facebook launched a series of improvements in the Marketplace with partnership with platforms such as Apartment List and Zumper (never personally heard of them). There is a lot more if you want to read a online translation it will good enough to get the idea of what has been written.
It is the way Facebook is going with this. that could be of interests to members here.
