Frequently asked questions

Hostvia is a platform for short-term rental hosts. It combines an Airbnb and Booking.com calendar with your own booking website for direct guest inquiries — all in one place.

No. Hostvia uses iCal (ICS) calendars that platforms already provide. Paste the link and reservations import automatically — no technical integration required.

On your public site, guests pick dates, see the price and send an inquiry with contact details. You get notified in the dashboard, review details and contact the guest directly.

Not yet — Hostvia is not a payment processor. Inquiries are reservation requests; payment and confirmation are arranged directly between you and the guest.

Yes. The booking site is optional. You can use the dashboard only for calendar sync, manual bookings and arrivals/departures overview.

Calendars refresh automatically in the background. You can also trigger a manual sync from the dashboard anytime.

Yes. Each unit has an iCal export link you can add to Airbnb or Booking.com so platforms see your manual blocks and direct bookings.

Independent hosts, small apartment complexes and property owners who want simpler multi-channel operations and direct guest contact.
