Vacation Rental Booking Solutions

Booking and Calendar Integrations for Vacation Rental Owners and Managers

I currently have clients that span a whole range of booking solutions/calendars. They all have their pros and cons.

​Lodgix, bookingsync and bookerville* all have some kind of yearly fees. All processing goes through a standard payment gateway and cc fees are pretty standard. *my least favorite…forms are so ugly!

Some clients just send me the feed info from their various listing sites and I found a simple calendar they can feed into just to show availability. Then we list seasonal fees in a rate chart and we set up an inquiry form that the owner receives as an email and then they send out a paypal link for payment.

It’s all over the board there. More automated and slick looking = more money basically.

I can integrate anything you want though.

Here are examples of some client’s booking setups:

http://www.nautilusrentals.com/book-now/ (she’s using the Pro version of this widget…you can actually do all bookings and payments with it but we are just using it for her calendar: http://www.vrcalendarsync.com/ )

http://marcoislandbeachgetaway.com/book-now/ (bookerville…see it’s ugly and completely uncustomizable)

http://parisnicevacations.net/availability-2/ (bookingsync: they worked with us to improve the look of their website widget!)

http://vacationrentalsmanzanita.com/availability/ (Lodgix: they are a good company. website widgets are somewhat customizable)​

http://scurlockfarms.com/rocky-overlook/ (we just embedded her HA calendar but she can take bookings manually through a form on her site
