Direct booking websites for short-term rentals by The Luxe Programs

A direct booking website that books guests, not a brochure that sits there

The Luxe Programs builds direct booking websites for short-term rental hosts and property managers. Guests see live availability, real pricing and pay you directly, your property management system stays in sync, and no OTA takes 15.5% of the stay. Design, build and launch are done for you, a first version is targeted within 3 to 5 working days of receiving your content, and you own the result.

What a direct booking website needs before it converts

  1. Live availability and pricing pulled from your PMS, never a contact form that says "enquire"
  2. Card payment on the site with deposits and balances handled automatically
  3. Fast, mobile-first pages, because most guests arrive from Instagram or a phone search
  4. Trust signals on the first screen: reviews, photos, cancellation terms and who you are
  5. Guest email capture on every booking so the next stay never goes back through Airbnb
  6. A domain and search presence you own, with the site indexed under your brand, not your PMS vendor's

    A high-conversion direct booking website, not a template. We handle design, build and launch so guests book with a flow as smooth as Airbnb or Marriott.

  • Real-time PMS integration

    Availability, pricing and listings sync automatically with your PMS. Update once and it reflects everywhere. No double bookings, no manual work.

  • Search and AI visibility

    Technical SEO, location pages for your town and the drive markets around it, structured data and clear property facts that Google and AI tools can read and cite.

  • Social content at launch

    30 days of content support at launch: 12 posts including 4 reels, built from your photo and video library, every one pointing to your booking site. The Continuous Growth Partnership continues it every month.

Free Direct Booking Audit

Start with a free audit of your listing

We review your listing, your current website and your numbers, then tell you plainly where fees and bookings are leaking and what we would build. No contracts. No long-term retainers. You own the website.

What is a direct booking website?

It is your own website where guests check live availability, see your real prices and pay you directly, with no OTA commission in between. It syncs with your property management system so calendars and rates stay accurate across Airbnb, Vrbo and your site at the same time.

Do I have to leave Airbnb to use one?

No. Your Airbnb and Vrbo listings stay in place as distribution. We add a front door you own and let repeat guests, referrals and search traffic move to it over time. Pacific Paradise, one of our clients, now takes about half of its bookings direct.

How long does it take to go live?

A first version of the site is targeted within 3 to 5 working days of receiving your photos, listing details and PMS access, subject to integration dependencies. Search and AI visibility build over time, so the earlier the site is live the sooner they start.

Is this worth it for a single property?

If one listing earns $50,000 a year on Airbnb's 15.5% host-only fee, the fee alone is $7,750. Moving a third of those stays direct pays for the $1,299 site several times over in the first year. The proposal we send shows that math at your own rate.
