RueBaRue overview

What is RueBaRue ?

RueBaRue is an award-winning Guest Communication Platform that provides innovative, automated guest communication services for vacation rental home managers. Our products help property managers optimize operations, increase revenue and please guests.

RueBaRue’s features include digital guestbooks customized for each home, curated local area guides, surveys, Google business reviews, revenue-driving extended guest stays and much more. Time-saving guest text messaging reduces guest calls and emails by over 50 percent. Our scheduler feature provides automatic delivery by text or email of door codes, guestbooks, welcome materials and surveys on a time and date you choose. Using Alerts, property managers can send emergency texts about road closures, power outages and pending storms. RueBaRue integrates with popular vacation rental software to create individualized guestbooks for each vacation rental.

Key benefits of using RueBaRue

RueBaRue helps vacation rental guests plan — and enjoy — their stay by providing all the information they need for a great vacation, from restaurant and sightseeing tips to essential information about their rental home.

We give property managers the automative tools they need to run a more efficient business — and drive more revenue doing it.

Automation means efficiency, convenience and big-time time-saving for your vacation rental business. With our customized digital guestbooks and local area guides, your guest’s smartphone becomes a portable, all-in-one tour guide, concierge and user manual for the rental home.

SMS automation lets you send guestbooks, surveys, welcome letters and other materials automatically on a date and time you choose. Guest text messaging facilitates instant communication between guests and your team. By sending important materials to guests by text and email, you can reduce guest calls and emails by more than 50 percent. Brand these materials with your logo and colors using our branding feature, and they’ll remind guests of your vacation rental business each time they use them.

Bonus: RueBaRue’s guest communication services make your vacation rental home business look professional, tech savvy and up to date.

“The part of this software that is most helpful to our business is that we are able to quickly and easily provide our customers with important property information via text and/or email.”

Guest Services Coordinator

Cons
“The communication part is sort of confusing - when more than one of us are getting the texts we can't always tell the other person answered them already.”
JK

Jonna K.

Owner

“The only negative was my fault for not getting my information in to populate the guides and information. Once I finished on my end we were up and running in no time.”

LiveRez

Integration rating: 5.0 (3)

RueBarue is the perfect complement to the LiveRez system. Collecting all of our property and check-in/Check-out info from the LiveRez system, RueBaRue uses it to help us send automated and personal texts to our guest list for that day/week. We love that RueBaRue has created a tool in which you can offer an extension to guests staying in a unit that has extra days available after their check-out date. This is in the ''Extend Guest Stays'' section and is a great tool if you have many units under your scope. There are many other supplements that RueBaRue offers but these are the ones that stood out the most to Mar De Cortez Rentals.

This connects our bookings automatically and sets everything up to begin communication.
