Our mission

Make hosting and booking vacation rentals free of doubt and full of joy.

Our founding story

Johannes Siebers & Michael Siebers, Founders of Holidu

Holidu was founded in 2014 after brothers Johannes and Michael Siebers experienced first-hand how difficult it was to book a vacation apartment for a surfing holiday in Portugal. Identical homes appeared across multiple platforms with different prices and availability, making comparison and trust difficult.

They recognized that this lack of transparency affected both guests and hosts - leading to uncertainty, overpayments, and overbookings.

Driven by the idea of bringing clarity and confidence to vacation rentals, they founded Holidu. Today, Holidu supports millions of guests and tens of thousands of hosts worldwide with a trusted platform and software solutions designed to increase bookings with less effort.

Our goal

To become Europe's #1 holiday home platform by creating value for both hosts and guests.
