The USVI Airbnb Alternative for Direct Vacation Rental Booking and Repeat Guests

add your vacation rental listing in st john usvi

ABOUT THE WEBSITE

  • Facilitates the connection for a direct relationship between Host & Guest.
  • Great for repeat guest reservations. Guest pay a low 4% fee vs. Airbnb 15%, VRBO 11%.
  • Host & Guest control and manage the reservation experience without 3rd party micromanagement from afar.  The course of inquiries, booking details, rental contract, and payments are meant to be unencumbered without overshadowing of the reservation by a 3rd party (ex. Airbnb or VRBO).

WHY CHOOSE US

  • Save time, money, and effort instead of building your own rental website from scratch that has booking capabilities to accept instant payment.
  • Free webspace for Hosts to add vacation rentals listings (0% Host Commission; $0 to Sign Up; $0 Annual Fee; $0 Monthly Fee)
  • Freedom from big rental platform overreach – We believe Hosts know their properties best and are best capable of directing their business decisions that are right for their rental property and for their guests. We are simply here to help connect Host rental and Guest payment while respecting your operational freedom to set rates and terms without algorithmic punishments.
  • Direct, instant payment to Host by Guest – Host’s payouts do not flow through website/Company at all (electronic payments are deposited directly to Host’s Business PayPal account at the time that Guest makes deposit or balance payment).
  • Host Autonomy
    • Host defines the rates and when to edit rates, discounts, fees (no penalizing system like Airbnb, VRBO, etc.)
    • Host defines the rental terms & conditions (add your own contract)
    • Host defines the deposit and payment schedule (ex. 50% deposit; 50% final payment when Host chooses for example: 7/14/30/45/60/90 days before Check-In)
    • Host can share bonafide guest testimonials on their Listing page (no penalizing Guest/Host review system like Airbnb or VRBO).
  • iCal integrated to avoid double-bookings
  • Instant booking capable (alternatively Hosts may require their confirmation first, so that a Guest inquiry is initiated before the booking is allowed)
  • Host Dashboard with Calendar view and reservation summaries
  • Direct Host communication – the Listing has a form for direct guest inquiries (emails go to the Host’s provided email)
