Key Features

Vacation Rental Features That Maximise Occupancy and Revenue

Every feature is tailored for the Indian homestay and vacation rental market — handling OTA bookings, direct guests and property maintenance simultaneously.

Create rich property listings with photo galleries, room configurations, amenity tags, house rules and location maps. Manage multiple properties from one dashboard. Each listing gets its own direct booking page with a unique URL for sharing on social media and Google Business.

Booking Calendar

One Calendar for All Properties and All Channels

Managing availability across Airbnb, Booking.com and direct bookings is the biggest pain point for homestay owners. Our unified calendar displays every booking from every channel in one colour-coded view. When a guest books on Airbnb, the dates are instantly blocked on Booking.com and your direct website.

Property managers with 10+ listings report that double-bookings dropped to zero from day one. The calendar also tracks housekeeping gaps between guests, maintenance blocks and owner-use dates — giving you complete visibility of your property portfolio.

Channel Manager

Sync Rates and Availability Across Every OTA Automatically

Update your nightly rate once and it pushes to Airbnb, Booking.com, MakeMyTrip and your direct booking website simultaneously. Seasonal pricing rules, minimum stays and check-in day restrictions apply across all channels consistently.

The channel manager also pulls in reservation details — guest name, contact, payment status and special requests — into your central dashboard. No more logging into five different OTA admin panels every morning. Manage everything from one screen.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions — Homestay & Vacation Rental Software

Common questions from homestay owners and property managers about our software development services.

How much does homestay management software cost in India?

Homestay software cost depends on your specific requirements — number of properties, channel integrations, guest volume and your management workflow. We provide custom, fixed-price quotes after understanding your operations. There are no monthly SaaS fees — you pay once and own the software forever. Call us at +91 7008562317 or fill the form below for a free consultation and transparent quote within 4 hours.

Does the channel manager work with Indian OTAs like MakeMyTrip?

Yes, our channel manager integrates with Indian OTAs including MakeMyTrip, Goibibo, Yatra and Cleartrip in addition to international platforms like Airbnb and Booking.com. Rates, availability and booking details sync automatically across all connected channels. We also support iCal sync for platforms that do not offer direct API access.

Can the software handle dynamic pricing for peak seasons and festivals?

Yes, the dynamic pricing engine supports Indian holiday and festival calendars — Diwali, Christmas, New Year, Holi, long weekends and regional festivals. You can set automatic rate increases during peak periods, weekend premiums, minimum stay requirements during high-demand dates and last-minute discounts for vacant nights. Rules apply across all connected channels simultaneously.

Can I build a direct booking website to avoid OTA commissions?

Yes, we build commission-free direct booking websites for your properties. Guests see real-time availability, browse photo galleries, read verified reviews and book directly with UPI, card or bank transfer payment. A direct booking website typically saves 15-20% in OTA commissions. We also set up Google Business integration so guests find your direct site from Google Maps.

How does automated guest communication work?

The system sends pre-programmed messages at key touchpoints — booking confirmation, pre-arrival check-in instructions with directions and Wi-Fi details, welcome message on check-in day, mid-stay check and post-checkout review request. Messages go via WhatsApp and email. Templates are customisable per property and can include the host’s personal touch.

Can the software manage housekeeping between guest turnovers?

Yes, the housekeeping module auto-generates cleaning tasks when a checkout is detected. Housekeeping staff receive task notifications on their mobile phone with property address, checklist items and photo upload requirements. Property managers see task completion status in real-time and can verify through before/after photos uploaded by cleaning staff.

How long does it take to build vacation rental software?

A basic listing and booking platform takes 5-7 weeks. A full-featured system with channel manager, dynamic pricing and guest CRM takes 10-14 weeks. Enterprise property management platforms with owner portals and financial reporting take 4-6 months. We follow agile methodology — you see working features every 2 weeks.

Is SITS based in Bhubaneswar? Can you serve hosts across India?

Yes, Swadhin IT Solutions is headquartered in Bhubaneswar, Odisha. We serve homestay owners and property managers across India — Goa, Kerala, Himachal, Rajasthan and every other tourist destination. For Bhubaneswar and Odisha clients, we provide on-site visits. For other locations, we conduct virtual workshops and provide remote onboarding with detailed guides.
