The birthplace of Portugal, a UNESCO-listed historic centre and short cultural visits. A website of your own, in several languages, so you stop paying Booking commission on every stay.
Guimarães is a classic short cultural break: the UNESCO-listed historic centre, the castle, the Paço dos Duques and the Plataforma das Artes draw couples and groups for 1 to 3 nights, often combined with Porto and the rest of the Minho. These guests book on impulse after seeing the photos and like to stay inside the old walls. The character of the old buildings in the centre is a selling point that a Booking listing never shows well.
We build websites with our own code and no WordPress for short-term rental houses and apartments in the historic centre of Guimarães, with direct bookings, in Portuguese, English, Spanish, French and German, and local SEO for searches such as 'Guimarães historic centre accommodation' or 'Guimarães UNESCO house'. We put the building and its location inside the walls front and centre, and link everything to your Google Maps listing (if your property qualifies), which is where people arriving for a cultural weekend look for somewhere to stay.
In Guimarães, guests choose by the photos and the story of the building. Your own website shows the character of the house, which gets lost in a Booking listing.
Stays of 1 to 3 nights mean many bookings and a lot of commission over the year. On direct bookings you pay no commission instead of around 15% on Booking, and you keep the difference.
Many guests combine Guimarães and Porto in one trip. A site in several languages, with good SEO, reaches people planning that route.
Staying inside the walls sells itself, as long as you show it well. A page of your own does more for the location than a listing that looks like all the others.

More bookings, less commission.
We don't take any share of the bookings that come through your site: guests pay you directly. You stay on Booking.com and Airbnb, and we charge nothing there either.
Online payments (coming soon): if you use them, the fee on each payment goes to the payment processor, not to us. Reference: 1.5% + €0.25 with a European card or MB WAY.
Example: a €200 booking
The Booking.com rate is a reference value (15%); it ranges from 10% to 25% depending on each property's contract.
| Period | Monthly | Buy outright |
|---|---|---|
| To get started | €29 | €390 |
| In year one | €348 | €489 |
| Over 3 years | €1,044 | €687 |
With Monthly there's no setup cost and you pay a little at a time. Buying outright costs more upfront and less from year two. Extras are paid once on either plan.
Paste the link to your Booking.com page and see what your site could look like before you pay anything. Then run the numbers for your property.
We're a company and we work like one. You always know what you pay, who you pay and what you get.
All prices already include VAT. You get an invoice with every payment, with your tax number, ready for your accountant.
Signed before we start: what's included, the deadlines, the minimum term and how to leave.
You pay NossoSite directly, into the company's bank account, never into a personal account.
Buying outright has no lock-in, and on Monthly you can cancel whenever you like after the minimum term. The domain and the data (guest data included) are always yours: we hand over an export of your bookings.
If the site isn't live by the agreed deadline, your first month is on us on Monthly, and your first year of maintenance is on us if you buy outright.
Optional, with VAT included and no lock-in. You pay the ad budget directly to Google and Meta. If your first Season Campaign brings no direct bookings, we refund the management fee.

There are two plans. Monthly: €29 a month with no setup cost, a 6-month minimum and then month to month. Buy outright: €390, paid once, plus €99 a year for maintenance. Both include your photos, rooms, reviews and map in 5 languages (Portuguese, English, Spanish, French and German), booking requests by form and WhatsApp, and an availability calendar showing the dates already booked on Booking.com and Airbnb. Extras are paid once on either plan, for example €190 for multiple units. VAT included.
Only if you choose it. The Monthly plan is €29 a month, with no setup cost and a 6-month minimum; after that it's month to month. If you'd rather not pay monthly, you can buy the site for €390 and pay €99 a year for maintenance. Either way, there's no commission on bookings that come through the site.
On the Monthly plan, maintenance is included in the €29 a month, with up to 2 small changes a month. If you buy the site outright, maintenance is €99 a year, with up to 1 small change a month. Both cover the domain, hosting, SSL certificate, backups and technical upkeep, and you request changes on WhatsApp. VAT included.
No. Bookings that come through your site carry 0% commission: the guest pays you directly. On Booking.com, at 15%, a €200 booking would cost you €30 in commission; through your site, you keep it all. If you later use online payments (coming soon), the payment processor's fee goes to them, not to us.
Yes, and we recommend it. The platforms bring you new guests. Your site is where returning guests, and people who find you on Google, book directly with you. Its calendar shows the dates already booked on the platforms.
The guest picks free dates on the calendar and sends a request through the form or on WhatsApp. The request comes straight to you. If you accept it, you confirm the booking with the guest, arrange payment and then close those dates on Booking.com and Airbnb.
You do, directly with the guest. The site doesn't take payments and the money never goes through us. Online payment on the site (card and MB WAY, paid into your account) is an extra we're still preparing. Once it's available, the payment processor charges its own fee, which doesn't go to us.
The site reads the booked dates from Booking.com and Airbnb (via iCal) several times a day. It isn't instant: a booking made on a platform can take a few hours to appear on the site. It also works in one direction only, so when you accept a direct booking you need to close those dates on Booking.com and Airbnb yourself. For dates coming up soon, check they're still free before you accept.
Yes. The domain is registered in your name, and the text, photos and booking data are yours. We take care of hosting and maintenance while we work together.
Yes. We register the domain in your name (if you already have one, we use it). Booking requests come straight to you with the guest's contact details, and that data is yours, not ours or a platform's.
If you buy the site outright, there's no lock-in. On the Monthly plan there's a 6-month minimum, then you can cancel whenever you like, and you can keep the site by paying the difference up to €390. Either way, the domain and the data are yours: we hand over an export of your bookings.
Yes. We hand over the site files and transfer the domain to whoever you choose. The site is built with our own code, not WordPress, so whoever maintains it needs to be comfortable working with code.
The base site is live in 3 business days. With extra features, we agree the deadline upfront (up to 14 business days). When the first direct bookings arrive depends on the season and on how much you promote the site, so we don't promise a date.
No. There's no dashboard to learn. When you want to change photos, text or prices, ask us by email or phone and we make the change.
Ask us by email or phone and we make the change. Maintenance includes up to 2 small changes a month (up to 30 minutes each: text, photos, prices, seasons). Bigger changes, like a new page or a redesign, are quoted separately.
We take care of it: a proper privacy policy, a cookie banner that doesn't get in the way (visit statistics are collected without cookies) and your RNT number on display, as the law requires.
