The partnership between HomeToGo SE and Amadeus connects the vacation rental group's extensive inventory with travel agencies using the Amadeus Bistro Portal, a leading tourism search and comparison tool. Through HomeToGo_PRO Doppelgänger, the company's redistribution solution suite, licensed Amadeus travel agencies can now seamlessly access and book from HomeToGo's portfolio of high-quality vacation rentals worldwide. This integration specifically targets the DACH region, offering agencies an intuitive platform with B2B features like wishlist sharing and comprehensive booking overviews.
Dr. Patrick Andrae, Co-Founder & CEO of HomeToGo, emphasized the strategic importance of this collaboration, stating that it delivers a fully integrated experience tailored to the B2B travel agency market. The solution fits seamlessly into the professional tools agents use daily, marking another step in HomeToGo's vision to unlock better stays for travelers. Agencies benefit from competitive commissions on every booking while accessing dedicated support from HomeToGo's specialized B2B customer experience team.
Ljiliana Budalic, Director Product Management Leisure at Amadeus, highlighted the synergies between the two companies, noting that HomeToGo's international footprint and focus on agency needs significantly expand the available travel portfolio. The integration allows content to be searched and compared alongside existing Bistro Portal offerings, creating added value for the travel agency advisory process. The gateway's seamless integration with core booking platforms, including central reservation systems and Paxlounge, ensures frictionless communication with customers.
This partnership represents a significant development in the professional travel sector, as it bridges the gap between traditional travel agency services and the growing vacation rental market. By providing agencies with direct access to HomeToGo's 20M+ vacation rental offers through their familiar Amadeus interface, the collaboration empowers travel professionals to offer more comprehensive accommodation options to their clients. The technology integration demonstrates how established travel distribution systems can adapt to include alternative accommodation types, reflecting broader industry trends toward diversified travel offerings.
The announcement comes as both companies continue to expand their technological capabilities in the travel sector. HomeToGo's AI-powered marketplace and Amadeus's global travel technology platform create a powerful combination for serving professional travel agencies.
