STR operators who rely on OTAs for most bookings pay significant commissions on every reservation, but building a capable direct booking website from scratch requires design and development resources most operators lack. PMS-generated booking pages typically load slowly and convert poorly.
CraftedStays is a direct booking website builder for STR operators, purpose-built to produce fast-loading, branded sites that sync bidirectionally with a connected PMS, pulling listing data automatically and pushing confirmed bookings back in real time.
CraftedStays integrates natively with five STR PMSes: Hospitable, Guesty, Hostaway, OwnerRez, and Hostfully. Listing data (photos, descriptions, amenities, rates, and availability) flows from the PMS into the site automatically, and confirmed bookings sync back. SEO infrastructure includes structured data markup and AI-search citation-ready content patterns, along with a patent-pending natural language property search. Product updates ship automatically to all customer sites multiple times per week. Setup takes approximately 25 minutes. Pricing starts at $89.99 per month for up to two properties.
