About

RentalCal is web-based direct-booking and calendar software for independent vacation-rental hosts. Hosts can publish a booking page for each property or embed a widget on an existing site. Guests can check availability, request a booking, place a hold, or pay through Stripe. Calendar connections include Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Google Calendar, and iCal feeds, with conflict detection, sync-health alerts, hourly refreshes on Free, and 15-minute refreshes on Pro. Free supports one property; Pro supports up to three, unlimited booking requests, branded pages, promo codes, and multi-currency Stripe payments. The accessible widget supports English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, and Portuguese. RentalCal charges no booking commission; Stripe processing fees apply. Hosts can invite a co-host or manager with a separate login and use a hosted RentalCal site or embed the widget on WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, and other websites.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The Guest Agent has been amazing. It knows the criteria we set for guests and screens them based on this. We set parameters for it to work with and it flags the ones that could be risky, so we can make a decision, whilst accepting the obvious and good guests. It learns from your decisions and it will build a conversation with the guests to gather more information before making a decision if required. There are options to automate the whole process, or a ‘Suggest’ mode that will screen the guests and then ask me or my team to make a decision once it has enough information. It even provides reasoning so we can just glance and click accept or reject. I’ve never used anything like this before, it’s saved us so much time and stress. We’ve loved it.
  • We’re using the ‘Solo’ free forever plan. It’s the first short term rental software we’ve found that provides instant multi-channel calendar sync for free. Exactly what we need to prevent any double bookings at our Airbnb.

Cons

  • You still need human judgement for the odd booking. Some guests sit in a grey area, so we still review those ourselves. The useful bit is that the agent has already gathered the information and explained why it flagged them.
  • Most features are included with the free plan but it will only accommodate a maximum of one property (although this can be across multiple channels like Airbnb and Booking.com). If you manage more than one property then you can pay and receive all the features.
