Short-term rental websites
Guest house & B&B
Websites for guest houses and B&Bs.
In a guest house the product is hospitality — the host, the breakfast, the welcome. An own website sells that, and runs the rooms without commission.
guest house & B&B
~/type/guest-house-bb.md
A guest house or B&B isn't a whole house — it's several rooms, each with its own rate and calendar, and a present host who makes all the difference. What sets a B&B apart from a hotel is exactly that: the home-cooked breakfast, the right dinner recommendation, the feeling of being at home. It's a hospitality product — and hospitality is the hardest thing to communicate on a platform listing template.
We build websites for guest houses and B&Bs with a booking engine that runs multiple rooms (each with its own photos, description, occupancy and price), a page dedicated to breakfast and the experience, and room to show reviews and the host's story. Guests pick the right room, see what they'll have for breakfast and book directly — and you stop paying commission on every room, every night.
Where the listing falls short
Several rooms, one listing
Each room has its own rate, occupancy and calendar. Managing this on the platform is confusing and charges commission on each one.
Hospitality doesn't show
The breakfast, the host, the welcome — it's what sets your B&B apart, and it's exactly what a platform listing flattens.
Reviews trapped in the OTA
Your best host reviews live on the platform. On your own site, it's your reputation that converts — without their name on top.
Why an own site with a booking engine wins
01
Per-room booking
A booking engine that runs each room with its own photos, occupancy and price. Guests pick right and you control inventory.
02
Breakfast page
Show what you serve, where the produce comes from, the hours. Breakfast is a selling point — give it the spotlight it deserves.
03
Hospitality and host
Room for the host's story and the reviews that show the welcome. It's what makes the guest choose you and come back.
04
Per-room commission disappears
In a full six-room house, platform commission adds up every night. Direct booking multiplies the saving per room.
