Sunset Villa
Lonavala · answers any time
Hi — welcome to Sunset Villa. What would you like to do?
Is the pool private?
Yes — the pool is only for your group, and it's cleaned before every stay.
I'd like to book a stay
Of course. What's the occasion?
New booking enquiry from Priya Nair for your property. Please call the guest on 98765 43210 to discuss the dates. - StayDirectNow
Most properties lose the guest before the phone rings
The property is lovely. The problem happens earlier — in the minute someone spends deciding who to message.
Your Google listing undersells you
Too few photos, a thin description, missing amenities, reviews nobody replied to. Google reads all of it as a weak signal and ranks you accordingly.
Nobody answers at 10pm
The guest asking about the pool at night has messaged four other villas by morning — and booked the one that replied.
The booking arrives with a cut taken
The guest who found you on Google books on an OTA because that's where the button was. On a ₹15,000 night that's ₹2,250–₹3,000 gone, for a guest you'd already earned.
Found, answered, told — in one place
You shouldn't need an SEO agency, a web developer and a chatbot company to fill next weekend.
Your Google listing, checked for free
We check your Google Business Profile — photos, reviews, categories, description and more — and show exactly what's holding it back, most urgent first, and what each gap costs you. Want it fixed? Our team can do that as a separate, paid service; ask for a quote from your dashboard.

A property page Google can read

A chat that answers at any hour
Check-in times, how many it sleeps, is the pool private, are pets allowed. Answered from your own FAQs and nothing else — it never invents a price, and whether the dates are free always comes to you.
Every booking request on your phone
When a guest asks for dates, you get an SMS with their name and number, and an email with the dates, headcount and occasion. The guest gets a text saying you'll be in touch, so they don't drift off while you call back.

What a direct night is worth
OTAs keep 15–20% of every booking. Each night that comes to you direct instead keeps that in your pocket. Move the sliders to see it against what StayDirectNow costs.
We don't take you off the OTAs. We make the direct route good enough that the guests who found you on Google book with you.

Guests find you and ask
Questions get answered at 10pm. When someone wants dates, their number is on your phone straight away — you call back and confirm from your own calendar.
Built around how you already work
If a tool makes your afternoon harder, it gets abandoned in six weeks however good the ranking looks. So we designed it backwards from your phone: guests ask on your page, you get a text, you call them back.
Guest data stays in India, kept 12 months, under the DPDP Act
You keep WhatsApp exactly as it is
We don't touch your WhatsApp or your number. You reply to guests from your own phone, the way you do today.
A request arrives as one text
“New booking enquiry from Priya Nair for your property. Please call the guest on 98765 43210 to discuss the dates.” That's the whole interface — no inbox to check.
Your calendar stays the source of truth
We never tell a guest the dates are free and never hold a calendar of our own — a second one that disagrees with yours is how double bookings happen.
Alerts only to numbers you've proved
Your mobile and email are confirmed with a code before anything is sent, and guests' thank-you texts are capped — so nobody gets messages they didn't ask for.
One flat fee. Never a cut.
Your first 2 months are free, so you can see it working for your property before you pay anything.
₹1,999a month + GST
Per property, once your free months are over.
- No card to start
- Nothing charged automatically — we get in touch before your free months end
- Stop any time: your page goes offline, nothing you set up is deleted, and it all comes back if you return
Everything is included
- A free check of your Google listing, showing what needs fixing
- Your property page in a choice of three designs, with the structured data Google reads
- A chat on the page that answers from your own FAQs, day and night
- Booking requests by SMS and email the moment they arrive
- A thank-you text to the guest saying you'll be in touch
- An optional “Talk to human” call-back button
- A dashboard of visitors, enquiries and guests
- An on/off switch, and help from a person when you need it
Fixing your Google listing, or getting it claimed or recovered, is a separate paid service — ask from your dashboard for a quote. No payments from guests, ever: they pay you directly, as today.
Do we have to change our WhatsApp?
No. We don't touch your WhatsApp or your number. Guests ask their questions on your property page, booking requests reach you by SMS and email, and you reply from your own phone exactly as you do today.
Do you take payments from guests?
Never. We pass on a booking request — dates, headcount, occasion. No deposits, no advance, no online payment, no money moving through us at any point. Guests pay you directly, exactly as they do today.
Do you hold our calendar or block dates?
No, and that is deliberate. You already keep a calendar — in a register, on WhatsApp, or synced to an OTA. A second one that can disagree with it causes double bookings, and one double booking costs more than we save you. We capture what the guest wants and you confirm it.
What if we never claimed our Google listing, or lost access?
Very common. We check your listing for free and show what's holding it back. If you need it claimed, recovered or fixed, our team can do that with you as a separate, paid service — ask from your dashboard and we'll share a quote. Google's own verification can take a few days.
How much work is this for us?
Setting up takes an afternoon: you add your photos, a description and your FAQs, and confirm your mobile and email with a code. For our first properties we sit with you and do it together. After that there is nothing to check daily — when a guest asks for dates, you get their name and number by SMS and call them back.
What does it cost?
Your first 2 months are free, so you can see it working for your property. After that it's ₹1,999 a month + GST per property — a flat fee, never a cut of your bookings. No card is needed to start, nothing is charged automatically, and we get in touch before your free months end.
What happens to guest information?
We collect a name, a phone number, the headcount, the dates and the occasion — chosen from a fixed list, never typed. Data is processed on your behalf under a written agreement, in line with the DPDP Act, and kept for 12 months.
Be the property they message first
Create your account, build your page, and your booking routine carries on exactly as it does today — with more of the guests who find you booking direct.
