You already earned the booking.
Airbnb takes 15.5% of it — including your cleaning fee. We build you a direct-booking site so the guests who were coming anyway book with you instead, and you keep the difference.

How it works in 30 seconds
What the platform fee actually costs you
Airbnb's 2026 host service fee is 15.5% of the total booking for nearly all hosts, and it applies to cleaning fees and extras too.
| Your gross bookings | Airbnb keeps | What that buys |
|---|---|---|
| $40,000 | $6,200 | A new roof on most units |
| $60,000 | $9,300 | A full kitchen remodel |
| $100,000 | $15,500 | Most of a year's mortgage |
| $150,000 | $23,250 | The down payment on unit two |
You'll never move all of it direct. Moving a third of it is ordinary.
What you get
A booking site that takes money
Property pages, photos, rates and house rules, with real availability and card payment through Stripe. Your domain, your brand.
The guest email sequence
Confirmation, arrival instructions, a mid-stay check-in, checkout, and a review request — sent automatically, in your voice.
A review engine
After checkout, every guest gets a thank-you and an invitation to review your place on Google. If anything wasn't right, they can reply and reach you directly, so you hear about it and can make it right.
Your guest list, finally yours
The asset the platforms won't give you. Last summer's guests, emailed in the off-season, at no cost per booking.
Nothing falls through
Every booking request gets an instant confirmation that it arrived, and you get an alert on your phone and email right away. You approve each guest yourself, so nothing gets booked without you.
Built and run for you
You don't touch a page builder. Send photos and rates; the site goes up. Changes are a text message away.

Your place. Your rules.
On Airbnb, Airbnb decides. On your own site, you do.
- Your rules: minimum stays, pets and pet fees, age limits, no-party rules, cancellation terms.
- Your screening: you see who's booking before you say yes, with a deposit or card hold.
- Your reviews: past guest reviews shown on your own site, not only on Airbnb.
- Your name on Google: a site under your own name, so guests who search for it find you first.
- Your guest list: every direct guest's email is yours for off-season and next-summer offers.
- Hand off the requests: booking requests land in one inbox that you, a co-host or a helper can answer.
- Faster money: the deposit lands in your own Stripe account at booking.
What it costs
At a $250 nightly rate, one summer week booked direct instead of through Airbnb keeps about $220 more in your pocket, even after card fees. A few of those a year and the site has paid for itself.
Who this is for
- Owners with one to five units on the Gulf Coast
- You manage your own bookings, or you're tired of the company that does
- You already get repeat guests and have no way to reach them
- You're licensed and insured to rent short-term in Florida
Who it isn't for
- Anyone hoping to replace the platforms entirely — you'll keep your listings, that's the point
- Properties that aren't booking now; this recovers fees, it doesn't create demand
- Management companies with fifty doors — you need software, not me
