Hosting, without all the work.

Hostaro keeps the busywork behind your vacation rental in one calm place: guest email, private guest links, quiet card and ACH payments, and a stay site that helps you earn more direct bookings.

Built for independent hosts with one home or a few. We’re starting with a small group of founding hosts and opening to more markets soon.

A different kind of PMS

Your property software should make the work disappear.

Most PMS platforms hand hosts more dashboards, rules and settings. Hostaro has a simpler goal: handle the routine so you can manage by exception.

01 Run the stay

The routine, organized around every stay.

Guest email, card and ACH payments, and private guest links live with each reservation, so nothing slips through the cracks.

02 Grow direct

Own more of your booking business.

Use Airbnb and Vrbo for discovery. Your own stay site gives returning guests a simple way to book directly next time.

03 Stay in control

Hostaro handles the routine. You make the judgment calls.

Calm defaults and clear boundaries. You decide how things run, and Hostaro works inside the lines you set.

One reservation, start to finish

From booked to checked out. Handled.

A reservation is more than a calendar block. Hostaro follows the whole stay and keeps the work around it in one place.

  1. Booked

    Reservation confirmed

    A direct booking comes in, payment is scheduled and a confirmation email goes out.

  2. Before arrival

    Guest gets ready

    Balance collected by card or ACH. Arrival details sent by email.

  3. Turnover

    Home gets ready

    Your prep notes and checklist sit right next to the reservation.

  4. Check-in

    Guest arrives

    A private guest link holds access details and house info.

  5. During the stay

    Questions answered

    Guest emails stay attached to the stay, with property details close by.

  6. Checkout

    Ready for next time

    A checkout reminder and an easy path to book direct next time.

You don’t build the workflow. Hostaro follows the stay.
Agents

Give Hostaro the job, not the instructions.

We’re designing agents that work across your reservations, guest email, payments and property details, so you can hand off a whole job instead of a checklist. Here’s where we’re headed.

Direct booking, built in

Airbnb can find your guest. It doesn’t have to own them forever.

Use the big platforms for reach. Use Hostaro to build the booking business you own, with a beautiful stay site, simple checkout, quiet card and ACH payments, and a guest relationship that stays yours.

    Ownership
Manage by exception

You shouldn’t operate the PMS. The PMS should operate the business.

Instead of logging in to figure out what needs doing, Hostaro surfaces the few things that need your judgment, then gets out of the way.

Beautiful by default

Everything you need. Nothing fighting for your attention.

Great UX isn’t a feature checkbox. It’s hundreds of small decisions that make a system feel obvious the first time you use it.

Why we’re building Hostaro

More vacation. Less overhead.

Vacations are where people recharge, families reconnect and ordinary weeks turn into memories. But every unnecessary fee, middleman and operational cost makes getting away a little harder.

Better software can make hosting less expensive. Direct booking can make stays less expensive. And simpler tools give hosts their time back.

When hosts and guests both keep more, everyone gets a little more vacation.
