StayDesk PMS
Simple property management for boutique villa operator
Managing short-term rentals shouldn’t be hard. StayDesk is a lightweight property management system built specifically for boutique villa and STR operators managing 2–15 properties. Not giant hotel chains. Tools like Guesty, Hostaway, and Lodgify are powerful — if you’re running 50+ properties with a full team. For the solo operator or small portfolio manager, they’re overcomplicated, overpriced, and overwhelming. StayDesk is the tool we wished existed. Simple. Fast. Built for operators like you
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I’m Camelia, the founder of StayDesk.
I spent months frustrated watching boutique villa operators — people managing 3, 5, 8 beautiful properties — wrestling with spreadsheets, WhatsApp threads, and 4 different calendar apps because every “real” PMS was built for big hotel chains and priced to match.
So I built StayDesk.
Here’s what makes it different from Guesty, Hostaway, or Lodgify:
✅ Built for 2–15 properties, not 50+
✅ iCal sync pulls from ALL channels every 5 minutes automatically
✅ Guest messaging with pre-built templates (booking confirmation, arrival instructions, check-in day, post-checkout) — no extra tool needed
✅ 30-day multi-property calendar so you see everything at a glance
✅ Mobile works properly — not just a squished desktop view
✅ 14-day free trial, no credit card, setup in 10 minutes
Who I built this for:
The villa owner in Bali managing 4 properties from their phone. The Superhost in Portugal who just added their 3rd property. The boutique operator in Mexico who’s drowning in manual calendar updates.
I’d love your honest feedback — what would make this a no-brainer for small operators? What’s missing? What would you pay for this?
Drop a comment — I’m reading and responding to every single one today 🙏
