The best digital guest experience for holiday cottages, cabins and luxury villas

The industry of holiday cottages, cabins, and luxury villas is very similar to the hospitality industry and has huge potential when it comes to digitalization. Based on the knowledge we have from 600+ hotels using DigitalGuest today, we’ve adjusted our platform to also fit this industry. First and foremost to help automize manual processes, get rid of prints and papers, and of course, create amazing digital experiences for all your guests.

One web app for all your guests. No download needed.

By using DigitalGuest you can create a digital and smooth guest journey for all your guests staying in your vacation houses. Everything from pre-stay emails to in-house communication and post-stay guest surveys.

We all know about the waiting game the guests are experiencing when renting holiday cottages, cabins, or luxury villas. Picking up the key, receiving information about heat, electricity, wayfinding, etc.

With DigitalGuest your guests can access all this information on their own smartphones before they arrive. And you can even distribute practical information such as key codes to the front door for the specific property. Let’s dive into more details!

Unit specific content

Often each unique property has individual information which is very important for the guest. With our feature ‘Unit Specific Content’ you can create content on your DigitalGuest platform that contains specific information for each property – and distribute it automatically through email or SMS.

For example, if your vacation houses have different door codes  – then Unit Specific Content is an easily accessible way to share the code!
With this feature, you can make sure to give the right content, to the right guest at the right time.

Also, a common way to use this feature is to distribute e.g. wi-fi codes, the address to the house, or other specific information related to that property. That will not only save you valuable time but also give your guests a smooth and professional experience when they are staying at your properties.

Keep your guests 100% well-informed

A well-informed guest is a happy guest. We know for sure there’s always a lot of information combined with staying in holiday cottages, cabins, and luxury villas. With your DigitalGuest platform, you can make sure that your guests are well-informed both before, during, and after their stay.

Having all information gathered in one place makes it a lot easier for your guests to prepare for their stay. Or by sharing e.g. the packing list, route to the house, and all local attractions on the platform, encourages your guests to start planning the vacation even before the vacation has started. Cool, right?

In addition to this, the whole guest experience will be personal, customizable, and fully automated, because DigitalGuest is integrated into your property management system.
