01
Search and request
Guests choose dates, guest count and stay purpose in a familiar booking flow that feels simple and premium.
Direct booking
A better way to capture direct booking requests.
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
Enquiry and quote contracts are separate from availability and payment authority.
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
Booking-style clarity without giving up owner control.
02
Qualify the stay
The page collects the signals owners need: group fit, reason for stay, arrival notes and house-rule awareness.
03
Review and respond
Owners receive a cleaner request summary so the follow-up can be faster, clearer and easier to approve.
Backend foundation
Ready for real request handling.
The product path is not only a landing page. It needs a request model, owner review status, calendar-readiness fields and deployment evidence.

Next step
Start with the page, then connect the workflow.
We prepare the public request flow first, then connect owner review, calendar-readiness checks and the direct booking inbox behind it.

Book setup reviewApproval-gated payment path
Request first. Pay only after approval.
Your direct-booking request is reviewed before any payment step.
No payment is taken when a request is submitted.
A secure Yoco payment link will appear only after availability, inventory and the final rate have been approved.
