Pros

“Additionally, the seamless smart lock integration—which automatically generates a unique access code for every single guest—provides incredible peace of mind and makes check-in entirely hands-off."”

Susan V.

Owner

“The channel management, automated guest communication, reservation management and integrations are particularly useful for our daily operations.”

Lena H.

CEO

“What has been amazing for me is the owners portal were they can access their calendar, view reservations and block dates for personal use, this has given my company a great transparency view from their perspective.”

Manuel M.

CEO

Pros

“With Vrbo, I was able to get reservations confirmed within 24 hours and got almost instant customer support for post reservation request.”

ITORO E.

Senior Account Manager

“I most like being able to see multiple units on one page, including their distance from key landmarks, like restaurants and shopping.”

Kim R.

President

“There’s other platforms for air bnb rentals”

Zeke P.

Sales

Cons

“A few features are missing or limited for traditional hotel workflows—for example, you can’t easily hold back door codes for guests who haven’t submitted a credit card, and there’s no way to send an itemized line-item invoice; it has to go out as the full reservation balance.”

Christopher F.

General Manager

“Guesty does not have a open sandbox environment to allow developers make tests without affecting real data of our customers.”

Yolanda M.

Software Engineer

“The main drawback I’ve experienced is the amount of time it took to resolve a group billing issue—over three weeks. While the support team was polite and eventually resolved the problem, the delay impacted our workflow and created challenges for managing a time-sensitive reservation.”

Kaylyn V.

AGM

Cons

“Regarding my reservation at Property 3702532 (Unit ID 4276677), booked Jan 7–Mar 4, 2026 for 2 adults: Upon arrival, the unit did not match the Vrbo listing and was not in acceptable condition.”

Jim R.

Owner

“There was an odor of mold/grease, the floor was slippery, furniture was stained and ripped, kitchen cabinets had grease/lint buildup, and the A/C unit was unsecured with exposed wiring.”

Jim R.

Owner

“I booked a room were expecting nasty rain and was seeing if I could cancel for a partial refund.”
