It was a very smooth experience with making reservations with this platform. They do not overcharge you with excessive extra fees like other platforms.

I recently added my vacation rental to Houfy and the experience has been very positive. The setup and integration were straightforward, and I received my first substantial direct booking almost immediately after going live. I like having another booking channel that gives hosts more control while offering guests a professional and trustworthy way to reserve. So far, Houfy has been a worthwhile addition to my short-term rental business, and I’m looking forward to seeing it grow.

Houfy is the absolute best for hosts who want to take back control of their rental and keep their income the way it’s meant to be. Why should companies make money off our investments, right? I love the fact that you can sync calendars to have other sites import your other reservations. I prefer an added address book to save your reservation contacts and send them personal discounts but that may come in time with suggestions. So far I’ve had three bookings by persuading my guests to come to Houfy, and it was well worth it!

Thanks Lisa! Great to hear the calendar sync is pulling its weight, and three bookings from guests you brought over yourself is a real result. The address book idea has been passed to the team.

Everything was simple, reservation, payment, stay, check in, check out and a reduced price compared to the other platforms.
