Leading competitor platforms
In our comparison, we mainly considered platforms that have a similar focus as Flatio and are also suitable for medium- or long-term stays. In particular, we analyzed data from Booking.com, Spotahome, Homelike and Uniplaces.
I booked accommodation with Flatio, and it’s clearly the worst rental experience of my life. They violate their own terms and conditions, and their so-called “Move-in Guarantee” are nothing but a complete sham, in reality, they don’t even apply them.
In case of a serious issue (unsanitary or non-compliant accommodation), they do not find you any alternative housing, contrary to what they proudly advertise on their website. Even worse: the “up to 7 days of your new rent” refund is a joke, they don’t refund anything, even when you prove the breaches.
Customer service? A disaster. Their phone line is unreachable 4 times out of 5, responses are vague and useless, and there is no concrete action. And their insurance? Completely unreliable, they are incapable of answering the simplest question.
In short, it’s a platform to absolutely avoid. Behind the nice promises, there’s no follow-up, no real protection, and a completely overwhelmed customer service team. If you value your money and your peace of mind, stay away.

I’d rate your services a 2/10. I wouldn’t strongly recommend Flatio to friends due to some issues. The customer hotline is only available for 3 hours a day, which is too short, especially when urgent problems need quick resolution. I sent an email but didn’t get a reply, and communication was slow and unclear. I appreciate the platform’s concept, but please improve the hotline hours and response times for better support.

The rating is purely related to the way the host is treated. Electricity consumption should be removed from the contract. It is a term that significantly increases the price of the rent and makes it prohibitive for future bookings. At the same time, if a customer makes a booking, it is unfair to pay so much money if they are not going to spend so much electricity. In a few words and to make this understandable, if the customer comes in winter and the weather is bad, they will have a high consumption of electricity. The reason is that the heating is done with air conditioning. If the weather is mild and you don't use air conditioning, you would normally pay much less. Now you will pay much more, since the reservation price has been calculated at the maximum electricity consumption.

Flatio claims to be a platform that supports tenants—but when things went south, they were completely useless. I came to them expecting mediation and fairness, and instead got vague copy-paste responses, constant delays, and ultimately a shrug and “Sorry, can’t help.”
I was dealing with a hostile, uncooperative landlord who flat-out refused to fix problems or negotiate in good faith. Despite that, Flatio still expected me to follow the lease to the letter and pay for days I wasn’t even living there—even after I moved out and returned the keys. Their only offer of help was a partial service fee refund if I gave the landlord more money. Thanks for nothing.
Don’t be fooled by the promise of tenant support. Once you’ve paid, you’re on your own. Flatio protects their listings, not the people who live in them.

Flatio's digital platform was a cumbersome and frustrating service to use. The owner of this particular property took 10 days to accept our rental. Flatio staff was always kindly, but making excuses for the owner wasted my time. The contract used for the property and the processing software were not user friendly. Flatio should keep in mind that they are dealing with guests from every walk of life. Their contracts and paperwork should reflect that every guest is not a lawyer; to get through the repetitive and superfluous language was trying and time consuming. I will not use Flatio for our yearly Algarve or any rental.

Nothing against Flatio themselves other than there needs to be better checks of the hosts and what they provide. I personally don’t think I’ll use the site again.

It is not clear how you arrange to see a location before you pay for it. It is also not clear how to actually get to the bookings pages from your profile.

The insurance service is not recommendable as it does not work. The tenant caused severe damage, and if we had had a deposit (which we are not allowed to have when there is an insurance), we would have already compensated the damage.
