Guest communication software for vacation rentals
Fast, calm replies keep reviews high. Use software that tags intent, keeps tone human, and pins the guide guests actually read.
Puntos clave
- •Intent-tagged inbox + human-approved templates = faster replies.
- •Pin the digital guide to cut repeat Wi‑Fi/parking questions.
- •Use quiet-hour acknowledgements to protect sleep and SLAs.
Problemas habituales de los anfitriones
- •Important messages buried between “thank you” notes
- •Templates that sound robotic or arrive at the wrong time
- •Guests asking for Wi‑Fi and parking even after you sent it
- •Night messages disrupting sleep because nothing is prioritized
Qué deben incluir las buenas soluciones
- •Inbox that tags intent (arrival, issue, new inquiry) and sorts by urgency
- •Scheduled sends for arrivals and departures with human-friendly tone
- •Pinned guest guide links so guests can self-serve basics
- •Escalation rules for safety issues that still require human review
Consejos prácticos del día a día
- Use three core templates: arrival, during-stay support, and checkout. Personalize only the greeting.
- Send a “quiet hours” confirmation at night to acknowledge receipt without committing to an answer.
- Pin your digital guide in the conversation header so guests can find Wi‑Fi and access info themselves.
- Track which questions repeat most and update your guide instead of adding new templates.

FAQ
How do I keep tone personal?+
Write short templates, add one personal line, and approve before sending. Avoid full auto-send.
Should I separate guest and cleaner messaging?+
Yes—keep ops separate so guests never see backstage notes.
What if a guest messages overnight?+
Send a short acknowledgment with timing for a full reply. Triage safety and lockouts first.
