Online booking for a homestay or guesthouse
OTAs bring guests and take a cut. A simple booking page on your own site lets travellers pick dates, pay a deposit and message you — while you keep one calendar.
Stage one for a small property
- Room or whole-house listing with photos and house rules.
- Availability calendar (block dates yourself).
- Deposit online (card or VietQR) + balance on arrival if you prefer.
- Confirmation in the guest’s language + alert to your phone (Telegram / Zalo).
- Several languages if tourists are your main income.
Cost and timeline
Same band as a business website with a booking engine: site from about $300, booking features priced after we see number of rooms and payment methods. Typical timeline 1–3 weeks. Related guide: booking for a hotel.
| Homestay need | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Clear cancellation text | Fewer disputes after deposit |
| Map and how to arrive | Guests land late; staff sleep |
| Owner phone admin | You change prices from the road |
