Every channel.One calendar you can block on.

Features

Built for multi-property hosts

Channel managers are heavy. Spreadsheets break. HomestayCalendar is the lightweight occupancy hub: pull every channel in, block or book dates yourself, and push blocks back out where iCal import is supported.

Multi-channel merge

Pull Booking, Airbnb, Agoda, VRBO, and custom iCals into one color per property. Occupied nights union automatically.

Block dates & direct bookings

Tap a day to block nights or log a direct booking. Rename stays, unblock anytime — no separate Google Calendar needed.

Export blocks to channels

Each property gets a private export link. Paste it into Airbnb or VRBO so manual blocks push out and reduce double-bookings.

All-busy highlights

See nights when every property is booked — amber cells and stats so you never miss a full-house stretch.

Multi-property

Start with two homes, add more as you grow (up to 8). Each with its own feeds, color, blocks, and export key.

🔒

Private by design

Import iCal URLs stay behind our edge proxy. Optional account cloud sync or a 4-digit private code.

Upcoming stays

Side panel of next check-ins with nights, channel badges, and day-click detail — including your direct bookings.

📱

Install as an app

PWA-ready: add to your phone home screen and open like a native calendar.

Free plan: up to 8 properties while we stay free for everyone.

How it works

Live in four steps

01

Import iCal

Copy export links from Booking, Airbnb, Agoda, VRBO, or any .ics feed.

02

Paste per property

Add a property, drop channel URLs, pick a color. Occupancy merges automatically.

03

Block or book a day

Click a date to block nights or log a direct booking. Rename and unblock anytime.

04

Export to channels

Copy your property export link into Airbnb/VRBO so your blocks sync outward.

Not just read-only — block dates without Google Calendar

Import stays from every channel, manage direct bookings and closed nights inside HomestayCalendar, then share your export link so Airbnb and VRBO see those busy dates. Fresher refresh than Google Calendar iCal sync — open the app, hit Refresh, or auto-refresh about every 15 minutes while the tab is open.

Pricing

Free while you grow

No trial cliff. Create an account and use HomestayCalendar at no cost. We may add paid plans later for teams — core host calendar stays approachable.

FAQ

Does this replace a channel manager?+

No. HomestayCalendar is not a full channel manager. It pulls occupancy from iCal, lets you add direct bookings / block dates, and can export those blocks back to sites like Airbnb and VRBO via your private export link. Pricing, inventory push, and messaging still stay on Booking, Airbnb, Agoda, VRBO, or your channel manager.

Can I block dates and record direct bookings?+

Yes. Click a day in the app to block or unblock nights for a property, rename direct bookings, and see them on the calendar alongside channel stays. Connect your HomestayCalendar export link in Airbnb/VRBO so those blocks push out automatically.

Are my iCal links safe?+

Import links are stored in your account (or private sync code) and only requested through our Cloudflare proxy — never exposed to other users’ browsers. Export links are secret URLs you choose who to share with.

How fresh is the data?+

Feeds refresh when you open the app, hit Refresh, or on a quiet 15-minute auto-refresh while the tab is open. Edge cache is about 10 minutes. That’s much fresher than syncing booking calendars into Google Calendar — Google often only re-fetches external iCal links every 12–24 hours. HomestayCalendar checks often so you see occupancy updates the same day.

Why not just import iCal into Google Calendar?+

You can — but Google is slow to re-check external calendars, and you still need somewhere to block dates. HomestayCalendar refreshes often, lets you block nights and log direct bookings natively, and can export those blocks back to channels that support iCal import.

Can I try before signing up?+

Yes — use the live demo with sample calendars. Sign up free when you want to save your own properties, blocks, and export links.
