There were several issues with owner reporting, and he was able to walk me through a solution and and explanation. I'm thankful for his problem-solving skill and the way he gave me words to help an owner understand her reporting. Cons I'm not sure why the formula needed edited in the first place. It seems that it should have been an update or in place already. Review Source WF Woldemar F. Managing Director Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Powerful PMS for Professional Property Managers" February 24, 2026 5.0 Our overall experience with Hostaway has been very positive. The platform allows us to manage multiple properties efficiently, automate workflows, and provide professional owner accounting. Compared to simpler PMS solutions, Hostaway is significantly more powerful and well suited for professional operators. We see Hostaway as a long-term partner for scaling our business. Pros Hostaway provides a highly professional and well-structured system for managing vacation rentals. What impressed me most: Strong multi-unit functionality Powerful automation (messages, tasks, payments) Clear financial reporting for owner statements Reliable channel manager integrations (Airbnb, Booking, etc.) Scalable solution for growing portfolios Customer support is responsive and knowledgeable. Questions are explained clearly and solutions are provided efficiently. Cons Some features can feel complex at the beginning and require onboarding time. The system offers many settings, which may feel overwhelming initially. However, once set up properly, the platform runs very smoothly. Switched from [Smoobu](https://www.capterra.com/p/160106/Smoobu/) We switched to Hostaway to gain access to more advanced features such as: Multi-unit functionality Better channel management Owner reporting & financial statements Advanced automation workflows Scalability for a growing portfolio Smoobu was suitable for smaller setups, but we needed a more professional and scalable PMS solution. Review Source Kim G. owner Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Look at other PMS solutions." November 1, 2025 2.0 Mostly terrible. I was sold on their 24/7 phone support, but no one picks up the phone or calls back when you try to use that option. My support ticket has been "escalated" for almost 3 days, and there is still no resolution, and only limited responses that mostly consist of "we're working on it". Due to the lack of price syncing, a reservation was made during my busiest week for almost $400 less than the pricing set on Hostaway. Pros My onboarding specialist was very nice and knowledgeable, but since then support has been a disaster. Cons I have had huge issues with syncing pricing across platforms. I pay extra for the dynamic pricing ad on, and even though the calendar in Hostaway shows prices correctly, they are incorrect in Airbnb, and for some dates, they show my pricing lower than my minimum pricing. Alternatives considered [Guesty](https://www.capterra.com/p/159377/Guesty/) Reason for choosing Hostaway Primarily because I was told there is 24/7 phone support, but I have never once been able to get anyone on the phone. Review Source JO JP O. Owner-Manager Hospitality Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Absolute best customer service, from start to finish." February 14, 2026 5.0 Overall, the experience has been amazing from day one when I was contacted by an outreach person via phonemail (I forget her name, but she's out of Boston, USA). Then, working with \[sensitive content hidden\], from sales, was a breeze, and in just two meetings, I signed-up and met with \[sensitive content hidden\], from onboarding, who has been absolutely amazing. Pros The customer service was absolutely of the highest quality. Specifically, my onboarding agent, \[sensitive content hidden\], she is AMAZING! Cons Honestly, I have nothing bad to say about Hostaway at this time. I am brand new to this system, and after having used other systems in the past, this one seems to be the best for our needs! Switched from [Little Hotelier](https://www.capterra.com/p/144307/Little-Hotelier/) Hostaway is able to process our payments and damage deposits in a manner that Little Hotelier was unable to do. This is super important and the key reason for the change. This and Little Hotelier was unable to sync with Vrbo. Review Source JR Jennifer R. Owner Hospitality Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great customer service for financial questions" February 3, 2026 5.0 \[sensitive content hidden\] at Hostaway thoughtfully explains what I need to understand to enable me to use the owner statement tools. Pros I like that Hostaway is mostly user friendly and if I do need help I can reach a customer support person to help me. Cons I least like the disconnect between Hostaway and the OTAs. When I think something is active and find out it is not. Alternatives considered [Guesty](https://www.capterra.com/p/159377/Guesty/) Reason for choosing Hostaway I was offered a low onboarding fee and onboarding specialist. I was told that Hostaway was working on AI integration which was important to me. Switched from [Hospitable.com](https://www.capterra.com/p/189280/smartbnb/) I outgrew Hospitable and needed more features. Review Source RR Rad R. owner Hospitality Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Customer Support sessions" February 4, 2026 5.0 Pros Yen was really knowledgeable of all the technical aspects needed to trouble shoot any issues I had with my hostaway account. Cons In General the long wait times when calling to get a rep on the phone. Most of the time I wait about an hour or more. Alternatives considered [Hostfully](https://www.capterra.com/p/187827/Property-Management-Platform/) Reason for choosing Hostaway Just had the best features, and customer service as well less issues. Switched from [Guesty](https://www.capterra.com/p/159377/Guesty/) Guesty was super unreliable, lots of bugs horrible customer service, and didn't have a lot of features, especially to hostaway. Review Source AC Amanda C. Owner Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great service!" February 4, 2026 5.0 Onboarding was kind of a disaster but now that I am understanding the system more it’s ok because I can figure stuff out myself Pros Y3n was very helpful and knowledgeable. Answered my questions with ease! He was happy to help with anything I needed Cons Hold time was a little longer than I preferred. But once someone answers my questions we’re quickly answered. Alternatives considered [Guesty](https://www.capterra.com/p/159377/Guesty/) Reason for choosing Hostaway Seemed like a good choice after doing a walk through Switched from [Lodgify](https://www.capterra.com/p/131924/Lodgify/) No enough detail to meet my needs on the back end Review Source JA Jesse A.

February 8, 2026 5.0 My experience has been excellent! \[sensitive content hidden\] was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful during the on-boarding process! Thanks \[sensitive content hidden\]! Pros I appreciate the structured, detailed and friendly onboarding process. This has been a great experience as we are changing PMS platforms. Cons I understand that not all PMS are perfect, having every single feature, Host Away meets my business needs. Alternatives considered [OwnerRez](https://www.capterra.com/p/100831/OwnerRez/) Reason for choosing Hostaway Customer service, the ease of use of the dasboard and overall value. Switched from [Guesty](https://www.capterra.com/p/159377/Guesty/) Guesty's customer service could be better and their pricing structure needs to improve. Review Source AC Amanda C. owner Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great customer service once someone answers" February 16, 2026 5.0 Overall customer service is very acknowledgeable and helpful. It really is just the wait time of getting someone Pros Nico was super helpful and answered all my questions with ease. He knew exactly what I was trying to do Cons The wait time to get someone on the phone for help. I called twice and waited over 45 minutes so I hung up. I had to get this done but luckily someone answered after 15 minute wait today Switched from [Lodgify](https://www.capterra.com/p/131924/Lodgify/) not detailed enough on the backend for growing business Review Source KN Kevin N. Owner Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great System and Support" February 26, 2026 4.0 \[sensitive content hidden\] who onboarded me has been a great asset to get me up and running. She has gone above and beyond to provide an exceptional onboarding experience. Pros Great tool to integrate all calendars and aspects of managing properties. Nice to have a single tool for booking across multiple channels and easy to navigate the user interface. Cons Still behind on some features/functions. Should be able to permanently set Seasonal Rates without having to manually block calendars and adjust pricing from there. Alternatives considered [Guesty](https://www.capterra.com/p/159377/Guesty/) Reason for choosing Hostaway Pricing was the main driver and ease of use. Switched from [Vacation Rental Desk](https://www.capterra.com/p/104510/Vacation-Rental-Desk/) No API integration and support issues with the company. Review Source Dean N. STR Property Manager, Guest Concierge Telecommunications Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Incredible Support and Knowledge base learning" October 31, 2025 5.0 Pros orking with \[sensitive content hidden\] from HostAway has been nothing short of exceptional. From the very first session, it was clear that she not only knows the platform inside and out but also genuinely cares about helping clients understand it at a deeper level. \[sensitive content hidden\] training approach is both insightful and engaging — she breaks down complex processes into simple, relatable analogies that make learning effortless. She never rushes through topics and always ensures full understanding before moving on, which made the entire onboarding experience smooth, productive, and even enjoyable. Her depth of knowledge, patience, and professionalism truly stand out. Every question was met with a clear, confident answer backed by practical, real-world examples that instantly connected the dots. She provided not just information, but valuable insights and best practices that will help us operate more efficiently long after the onboarding is complete. \[sensitive content hidden\] embodies what every onboarding specialist should be — knowledgeable, approachable, and genuinely invested in her client’s success. Her positive energy and structured approach turned what could have been an overwhelming process into a seamless, empowering experience. If there were a rating higher than five stars, \[sensitive content hidden\] deserves it. HostAway is incredibly fortunate to have her on their team — she represents the platform’s excellence in the best possible way.

Property Manager Hospitality Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Smooth Onboarding with Outstanding Support" October 29, 2025 5.0 My onboarding experience with Hostaway was thorough and well-supported, thanks in large part to \[sensitive content hidden\]. He was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive, walking me through each step of the setup process with clarity and care. From syncing channels to configuring fees and customizing the booking engine, \[sensitive content hidden\] made sure I understood not just how to do things, but why they mattered. While the platform itself has a learning curve and setup can be time-consuming, having a dedicated onboarding specialist like \[sensitive content hidden\] made it feel manageable and even empowering. I felt heard, supported, and set up for success. Pros Hostaway’s onboarding process is streamlined, supportive, and designed to get you up and running quickly, especially if you're syncing with platforms like Airbnb, Vrbo, or Booking.com. Cons The initial setup was more time-consuming than expected, there’s a lot to configure between listings, fees, automation, and channel syncs. Once it’s all dialed in, it runs smoothly, but onboarding definitely requires patience and attention to detail Switched from [Guesty](https://www.capterra.com/p/159377/Guesty/) We updated our channel pricing in Hostaway to tailor rates by platform. It’s helped us stay competitive, account for commission differences, and fine-tune our revenue strategy across Airbnb, Vrbo, and direct bookings. Review Source RC Robin C. Owner Hospitality Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A long but thorough process" July 3, 2025 5.0 For the last 2 years, I (and my little boutique hotel the Dream Weaver in Puerto Peñasco, Mexico) have been with Hostaway under the umbrella of a different company while awaiting our documents in Mexico. I like Hostaway's tools and performance. For the last month, I've been working on taking our listings from Pisolino Rentals (the company we've been under for the last 2 years) to create our own account. Hostaway support team has been incredible in helping me do that. Almost as good as the support I have been receiving from Airbnb. I have been disappointed in the Sale part of things where emails sent were not answered. I chose Hostaway because I was led to believe that they are the best - and I can't judge because I haven't tried anyone else - but being a small boutique hotel, it was difficult to be left "hanging" in our operation during the switch over, while everything needed to be set up. Given all the hours I spent preparing for the change over, I assumed it would have been accomplished more rapidly however, the team members helping me in doing this transfer have been simply fantastic. My technological challenge and lack of knowledge about the transfer / integration may have partly contributed to my frustration (and dealing with banks in Mexico!!!). Pros Evaluating my experience with \[sensitive content hidden\[ at Hostaway support. She made this step of the process seem easy. I was able to follow her instruction, overcome challenges and successfully complete that part of the work. Giving the fact that there was more to be done, she set up a follow up call to complete the rest and make sure that questions that may come up meanwhile be answered at our next meeting. She was diligent, helpful, friendly and thorough. Evaluating \[sensitive content hidden\] of the Onboard process: Lots of help from 2 thorough and knowledgeable people. Very understanding of my situation, they have accelerated the integration process, scheduling meetings as quickly as possible and that is greatly appreciated. Cons Evaluating the whole Integration process: I didn't realize how much work there is to be done and how long it takes. I did MANY hours on my own to get everything ready and it still took a long time. I don't think this is a CON but rather a fact but this took me by surprise. I have found frustrating to have to follow directly myself with support of the partners affiliated with Hostaway. It would be simpler if the integration of EVERYTHING that needs to be done to be onboard could encompass ALL aspects. The last point is I didn't feel I was given all of the alternatives/choices in setting up ex: it was Stripe automatically with integration but in emails received, there were other alternative to Stripe that may have warranted a look at. Alternatives considered [Hostify](https://www.capterra.com/p/183332/Hostify/)[Lodgify](https://www.capterra.com/p/131924/Lodgify/) Reason for choosing Hostaway Because I have a basic knowledge of Hostaway having used it while under the umbrella of another company who used Hostaway. Although the price is higher than what I could have paid with an alternate product, I am pressed for time and didn't feel like starting the learning process all over again. Review Source AG Andre G. Principal Revenue Manager Consultant Hospitality Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy to Learn and Use" October 1, 2025 5.0 My overall experience with Hostaway has been excellent. The platform is reliable, easy to use, and makes managing properties much more efficient. From setup to daily operations, everything has been smooth, and I feel confident running my business with Hostaway. Pros The platform is easy to use and has all the tools I need in one place. The onboarding process was smooth, and Bryann’s guidance made it even better - he explained everything clearly, answered all questions and made setup stress-free. Cons Some features take a little time to fully learn transitioning from 1 platform, but once you get used to the platform, it becomes much easier to navigate. Switched from [Guesty](https://www.capterra.com/p/159377/Guesty/) As a revenue manager with multiple clients, its an easy switch to do multi platform Review Source BO Bethany O.

October 1, 2025 5.0 The onboarding experience with Hostaway has been fabulous. Our support expert, Juan has been patient, friendly and professional to work with, turning an intimidating experience of learning a new platform into an enjoyable one. Thank you, Juan! 10/10 Pros I value the ease of use, streamlining functions across multiple platforms, and saving time and money. Cons It takes some time to learn the ropes, but fortunately, we have received fabulous support from the customer support team along the way.

Owner Hospitality Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Five stars" May 5, 2025 5.0 Fives stars for \[sensitive content hidden\] and also \[sensitive content hidden\] did great also. I am really enjoying the software and I already have bookings from new channels which I would not have without Hostaway. Pros Knowledgeable and friendly onboarding staff. Excellent features, mainly intuitive (though I did catch some things to increase efficiency for users), automations for letters and cleaning tasks are super helpful. Cons Nothing really. As mentioned I found some things for my onboarders to pass on to programmers and developers that will help improve your product for users. Alternatives considered [Guesty Lite](https://www.capterra.com/p/169863/Your-Porter-App/)[Guesty](https://www.capterra.com/p/159377/Guesty/) Reason for choosing Hostaway From what I read. Guesty's customer service was not as good. My onboarding experience was five stars and my customer service experience has been fantastic with hostaway. \[sensitive content hidden\] were both amazing. I hope Hostaway keeps this up and continues to invest in their staff that make people like me feel supported. I dread the day Hostaway sells out to a larger corporation and they cut back on the people support and replace them with chat bots. Review Source KM Kelly M. Director Hospitality Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Highly Recommend \[sensitive content hidden\] as your onboarding Specialist!" October 16, 2025 5.0 I would highly recommend Hostaway for its support and impeccable customer service. \[sensitive content hidden\] was very helpful in the setting up and helped set up automated messages, clear instructions for my guests to make management more time efficient overall. Thank you again! Pros \[sensitive content hidden\] was my onboarding specialist for Hostaway and has been a massive help in guiding me through the set-up. He is extremely knowledgeable and informative and goes beyond to helping his clients. His support has been a huge asset to getting my business off the ground and would highly recommend. Thank you! Cons The system is more complex than I imanaged but with the support and understanding from \[sensitive content hidden\] helped me overcome this quickly and understand how to use it more efficiently and save me time. Switched from [Smoobu](https://www.capterra.com/p/160106/Smoobu/) Wanted a better quality software system to work from that helped manage the cleaners and payments and would help set up the website as well. Review Source CL Chris L. Guest Relation Specialist Real Estate Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best Customer Support from Nino" February 17, 2026 5.0 Overall, my experience with Hostaway has been very positive. The only challenge I’ve encountered has been with the integration process. Pros Value for money Customer support are always accommodating and knowledgeable. Booking management was good! Cons It would be very helpful if features such as the host cancellation policy could be displayed directly on the home screen, so there is no need to open the reservation details to access that information. Additionally, the integration process with third-party OTAs was quite challenging. It would be greatly beneficial if the system could provide a clear, step-by-step guide to assist users through the integration process. A smart, on-screen guide—such as prompts indicating which buttons to click and where to enter specific codes, similar to a simulated walkthrough—would make the experience much more user-friendly. This would ultimately help users gain better access and increase their opportunities for securing more reservations. Review Source MG Marc G. Business Services Manager Hospitality Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Amazing customer support!" February 23, 2026 5.0 Hugely positive. I would recommend it to anyone looking to rental short term accomdations. The onboarding and continued customer support is great. Pros It is a great platform for managing my short-term rental business. It is amazing what I can do as one person managing so many rentals. I couldn't be without it. Customer support is amazing as well. Cons Nothing negative. Everything has been positive thus far. If I had to say anything negative, it would be their integration with VRBO, but this is more on the VRBO side than Hostaway. Review Source HG Heather G. Partner Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Hostaway is making my life easier!" February 10, 2026 5.0 From the initial sales presentation to my software launch the experience has been well organized, communication has been excellent, and the quality of the product has been even better than expected. In addition, the training staff, and \[sensitive content hidden\] in particular, has been outstanding. Pros The platform makes my job so much easier! The onboarding support from \[sensitive content hidden\] has been easy - \[sensitive content hidden\] answers all my questions, has taught me all the tricks to maximizing the features of Hostaway and has been enjoyable to work with. My bookings are managed more smoothly now, my guest communication is improved and I'm wondering why I didn't do this sooner. Cons A few of the setup items are not very self-explanatory. I appreciate the in-depth onboarding, but I did find that when I was exploring on my own during the setup phase there were things I would have liked to dive into and couldn't figure out without help.

Fast an effective advice and solution to any problem. Pros Fast reply, effective step-by step navigation. \[sensitive content hidden\] suggested some fixes and they really worked. I had a problem for several day that no one could help me with and he did it in few hours. Cons I don't have any negative experience with Hostaway. It always does what I pay it for and has great support and continuous advancement. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Marketing Specialist Hospitality Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Onboarding tips" October 30, 2025 5.0 The overall experience has been good, but I’d like to share some feedback about the onboarding process. I think it would be much clearer and more effective if the onboarding were done over a couple of full days, with everything covered together under guidance. Right now, having short sessions spread out over time made it harder to follow the flow, some things were unclear, and we weren’t always sure if we were doing everything correctly. A more structured, continuous onboarding would help new team members feel more confident and better prepared, and it would also speed up the overall process, allowing potential issues to surface and be resolved more quickly. But he sessions we did were clear and helpful, just a bit too short. Pros I really enjoyed being part of a dynamic company that’s constantly evolving and focused on innovation. The platform is strong and impactful, and it's a real difference for its users. And it has Finnish roots! Cons Some internal systems and structures are still catching up, which occasionally is making the coordination a bit challenging. Review Source JG Jaime G. CEO Hospitality Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great Customer Support" October 29, 2025 5.0 Great! Quick and easy, my issue was solved. We were experiencing a recaptcha issue for whatever reason, and \[sensitive content hidden\] took me through the steps to troubleshoot. We got the issue resolved in about 10 minutes and the hold time to jump on the call was only a minute or two. Thanks Hostaway! Pros \[sensitive content hidden\] was helpful and solved my recaptcha issues on the website. Thank you \[sensitive content hidden\]! and thank you Hostaway for supplying great technical support so quickly, as always. Cons There was nothing that I disliked about hostaway pertaining to my customer service phone call. Thank you \[sensitive content hidden\]. Review Source TZ Tamzed Z. Head Admin Building Materials Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Reliable Automation With Room to Improve" November 25, 2025 5.0 Pros Hostaway’s biggest strength is how well its features integrate into a single, easy-to-use platform. The automated messaging, calendar syncing, and channel management tools work smoothly together, which makes day-to-day property management much more efficient. It also offers strong connectivity with major booking channels, reducing double bookings and saving a lot of manual work. The dashboard is clean and intuitive, helping you quickly understand performance, occupancy, and guest communication. Cons What I liked least about Hostaway is that some features feel less polished than the core channel-management tools. Certain integrations can be slow or require additional troubleshooting, and occasional sync delays create extra manual checks to ensure accuracy. The reporting functions, while useful, could be more customisable to better suit different property types and operational needs. Customer support is generally helpful but can sometimes take longer than expected to resolve more technical issues. Overall, the platform is strong, but these areas—system optimisation, deeper customisation, and faster support responses—would significantly enhance the overall user experience.
