Direct bookings

Every booking has a middleman. Ours don’t.

When a guest books through Airbnb or Vrbo, the platform takes its cut before you see a dollar. A direct booking carries no channel commission, only standard card processing.

No commission on direct bookings

A third of our revenue never met a platform.

Over the eight months from December 2025 to July 2026, direct bookings brought in a third of our accommodation revenue, peaking at 59% in December.

Because those guests did not book through an online travel agency, our owners kept about $74,000 that would otherwise have gone to channel commissions.

Direct means booked with Hotel Home Stays: by phone, by referral, or on our own booking site. Every one of those bookings starts your statement at the full nightly revenue.

Guests who come back, and come back direct

Your home joins a network of guests who already trust the standard.

Our guests return year after year, and when they come back they book with us, not through a platform. Many try a different home in our collection on their next trip. When your home joins us, it joins a network of guests who already know and trust the Hotel Home Stays standard.

Direct guests also stay longer: an average of 14 nights, compared with about 5 on Airbnb.

"Hotel Homes is the premiere class of property management. What sets them apart is the attention to detail that affords our guests to have the most memorable experiences, the minor touches that matter. They don't shortcut on any of the amenities, they're always super proactive, and they take a collaborative approach with us which we greatly appreciate."
