Solutions FAQ

Common questions about choosing the right setup.

Is The Stay Manager only for one type of accommodation business?

No. The Stay Manager is designed for accommodation businesses worldwide, including guesthouses, self-catering properties, lodges, boutique hotels, property managers, tourism platforms and agencies building accommodation websites.

Should I choose Free/Core, individual add-ons or the Pro Bundle?

Free/Core is best as the free unlimited-property starting point. Individual add-ons or the Pro Bundle are better when you need payments, deposits, advanced rates, booking rules, channel sync, reports and operational tools.

Do I need the Stay Manager Theme?

You can use your own WordPress design, but the Stay Manager Theme gives you a polished accommodation-focused design layer that works well with The Stay Manager booking tools.

Can The Stay Manager support a tourism marketplace?

The Stay Manager can support marketplace-style planning and platform workflows, but those projects usually need a staged discussion around providers, listings, approvals, commissions and commercial setup.

Can you help with setup?

Yes. Website setup and launch support can help with theme configuration, booking workflows, page structure, product installation and the direct-booking customer journey.
