How VacayDirect works
You host. We handle the website. All of it.
Six steps, and you're only really needed for two of them.
A 20-minute call
We look at your current website or listings together, ask which booking system you use and what you'd change. You'll know by the end whether we're a fit.
Your part: Show up with your links.
We rebuild from what you have
Our tooling reads your existing site or listing and extracts the photos, copy, amenities, policies and structure. From that we build a complete, custom site. If you like the look of another site, send it and we'll take the design in that direction.
Your part: Nothing.
We connect your booking system
Your booking system's own widget or booking engine goes into the site, so availability and prices are live and checkout pays out to you. We don't add a second calendar or a new payment account.
Your part: Share your widget code or booking link.
You review a working preview
A real site at a private address, not a mockup. Click through it on your phone. Tell us what to change. We change it.
Your part: Look, react, approve.
We launch on your domain
We walk you through the DNS change, set up redirects from old URLs so rankings carry over, submit the sitemap and check that everything resolves.
Your part: One DNS update, with our help.
The site keeps working
New area guides, guest pages and posts go up every week. A guest assistant answers visitor questions day and night and passes you the inquiries. When you want a change, you tell the site's AI agent, or on Concierge, a person.
Your part: Run your rental.
After launch
What happens in a normal week
Most of it happens without you. That's the point.
New pages go live
Area guides, guest-type pages and seasonal posts, drafted from the facts about your place and published on a steady rhythm. You can review, edit or veto any of them.
Guests get answers
The assistant on your site answers questions about the property and the area from what's published, and hands you the inquiry when someone's ready to talk.
You ask for changes in plain English
"Add the new kayaks to the amenities." "Put the fall special on the home page until November." The agent makes the edit and shows you before it publishes.
Search engines get told
Every new page is added to your sitemap and submitted for indexing.
Curious what it costs? See pricing. Wondering what the platforms cost you? Run the calculator.
Let's get your place its own front door.
A 20-minute call. We'll look at your current site or listing, tell you what we'd build and answer anything. No pitch deck.
