HomestAI
For Airbnb · Booking hosts

Reach thousands of travelers
straight from Google Maps.

Stop relying only on Airbnb and Booking. Show your property as a proper hotel-grade business on Google Maps — verified profile, photos, reviews, and a “Website” button pointing to your HomestAI page.

Travelers find you by searching “hotel Annecy” or “stay Marseille”, land on a polished site → trust kicks in → they click “Book” which sends them straight to your Airbnb / Booking listing.

— Later, plug in a channel manager to book direct, commission-free.

  • Pro profile on Google Maps
  • Polished site = trust + clicks
  • "Book" → Airbnb / Booking

Free guide · Updated for 2026

Get your property on Google Maps in 30 minutes.

Be visible to the millions of travelers who search Google for accommodation every day. Follow these 6 steps — 100% free, no paid tools required.

  1. 01

    Create your Google Business Profile

    5 min

    Sign in to business.google.com with your personal or business Google account and click "Manage now". Enter your property's exact name (e.g. "Lake View Villa", "The Marronnier B&B").

    Open Google Business
    Tip: Use the same name as on Airbnb / Booking so you don't end up with two split identities on Google.
  2. 02

    Pick the right category

    2 min

    Primary category: "Lodging". Sub-category based on your type: "Vacation home rental", "Bed & breakfast", "Guest house" or "Cottage". Only use "Hotel" if you're officially classified as one.

    Tip: The primary category determines what queries Google shows you for. Pick well = targeted visibility instead of drowning in hotel competition.
  3. 03

    Enter your address

    3 min

    Full address if your property is open to the public. If it's in your home (B&B in primary residence) and you want privacy, tick "I deliver goods and services to my customers" without showing the exact address — Google will display the area only.

    Tip: Exact addresses give better local SEO. Hide it only when privacy is genuinely critical.
  4. 04

    Verify your business via video

    5 min recording + 24-48h validation

    In 2026, video verification has become Google's standard method for lodging. Record a continuous 1-2 min video showing: 1) the street sign or house number outside, 2) the full façade, 3) one unique interior detail (electricity meter, view from a window). Upload through your Google Business dashboard.

    Tip: Shoot in daylight, no cuts or blur. Google rejects videos with edits, digital zoom, or heavy stabilization.
  5. 05

    Optimize your profile

    15 min

    Add at least 10 high-resolution photos (façade, living room, bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen, view). Write a 500-750 character description mentioning your city, 3-4 unique selling points (lake view, free parking, pet-friendly...) and target audience. Hours: "Open 24/7". Phone and email are mandatory.

    Tip: Natural-light photos without identifiable people perform best. Refresh 2-3 photos every season to stay active in Google's eyes.
  6. 06

    Enable the "Website" button

    2 min

    In your profile → "Edit profile" → "Links" → "Website". Paste the URL of your direct-booking website. This button is what turns Google Maps visitors into commission-free direct bookings.

    Tip: No website yet? HomestAI generates one in 5 minutes from your Airbnb / Booking listing — that's exactly what our tool was built for.

Once you’re on Google Maps…

The “Website” button on your profile sends visitors to your booking page. With HomestAI, that site is generated in 5 minutes from your Airbnb or Booking listing.

Frequently asked questions

I already use a channel manager (Smoobu, Lodgify…). Why HomestAI?

Your CM probably includes a basic website, but that's a bundled feature — not a designed product. HomestAI is a dedicated site builder: boutique templates, AI-written copy, top Core Web Vitals, local SEO. On the Pro plan, your HomestAI site embeds your CM's booking widget (Smoobu, Beds24, Hospitable) in an iframe — same calendar source, but a site that looks like a boutique hotel instead of a default Smoobu template. Bonus: switch CMs later and your HomestAI site keeps running.

Do I need technical skills to create my direct-booking website?

No. Paste your Airbnb or Booking.com URL and HomestAI generates a complete website — photos, descriptions, pricing, and calendar — in under 5 minutes.

How does HomestAI help reduce platform commissions?

Bookings taken through your HomestAI site pay zero platform commission. You only pay the flat monthly subscription and standard payment-processor fees.

Can I use my own domain?

Yes. Connect any custom domain for a one-time €70 setup fee. SSL is included automatically.

Does HomestAI work for multi-property hosts and concierges?

Yes. The Max plan supports up to 10 properties and is built for conciergeries and boutique hotels managing multiple listings from one dashboard.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — every plan includes a 14-day free trial. No credit card required to start.
