Search and request
Guests choose dates, guest count and stay purpose in a familiar booking flow that feels simple and premium.
Direct booking
Give guests a polished request flow while owners keep approval, house rules, calendar readiness and guest-fit checks in view.
Guest-ready
A booking-style request page with dates, guests, purpose of stay and property-fit prompts.
Owner-approved
Every request stays reviewable before the next step, with rules and fit signals visible.
Calendar-aware
Built around readiness, conflict checks and clean follow-up rather than rushed confirmation.
Dates
Arrival and departure
Guests
Group size and stay purpose
Owner review before the next step
The guest submits a request. The owner reviews fit, rules and readiness before responding.
Current production boundary
A direct request is not a confirmed reservation. Quotes must identify their pricing source, and an owner approval still requires a fresh availability check before any future checkout step.
Guest journey
01
Guests choose dates, guest count and stay purpose in a familiar booking flow that feels simple and premium.
02
The page collects the signals owners need: group fit, reason for stay, arrival notes and house-rule awareness.
03
Owners receive a cleaner request summary so the follow-up can be faster, clearer and easier to approve.
Backend foundation
The product path is not only a landing page. It needs a request model, owner review status, calendar-readiness fields and deployment evidence.
See Owner DeskRequest payload for dates, guests, stay purpose and contact details
Owner review status model: new, reviewing, follow-up, approved or declined
Calendar-readiness fields for availability notes and conflict checks

Next step
We prepare the public request flow first, then connect owner review, calendar-readiness checks and the direct booking inbox behind it.
Review the property, guest questions, owner rules and response path before sending more guests to the page.
