There was some hiccup with on boarding. If you are migrating from other PMS, don't forget to pause your listings to avoid double bookings etc.
But after on boarding, everything went well. Web and mobile UI experience is great. I especially like that I can assign tasks to cleaners without creating accounts for them.
Compared with other PMS I used, this one is definitely worth the money! 10/10!

Hostex has truly simplified hosting for The Turtle House, Morjim!
Managing a 7-bedroom villa with multiple bookings, guest messages, and schedules used to take a lot of time — but Hostex has made it all so much easier. The automation tools, templates, and support have saved me hours every week and helped us deliver a smoother, more professional guest experience.
The platform feels intuitive and reliable, and their team is always ready to help with quick and friendly responses. I’d definitely recommend Hostex to any host who wants to streamline their operations and focus more on guests instead of admin work.

Switching to Hostex has been a game-changer for our short-term rental business, PolandBnB. After years of experience with various property management systems, I can confidently say Hostex stands out for its exceptional automation, responsiveness, and comprehensive feature set.
Seamless Automation:
Hostex has taken the headache out of daily operations. Automated guest messaging, calendar synchronization, and self check-in/out have dramatically reduced manual tasks. The system’s smart automations ensure our guests receive timely, personalized communication, which has led to higher satisfaction and fewer support requests.
Outstanding Reactivity:
Hostex’s platform is fast and reliable. Changes to pricing, availability, or property details are reflected instantly across all our connected channels. The support team is equally impressive—quick to respond and genuinely helpful, which makes a huge difference when managing multiple properties.
Complete, All-in-One Solution:
What sets Hostex apart is the completeness of its offering. It covers everything from unified inbox management and automated reviews to dynamic pricing tools and analytics dashboards. The platform brings together all the essential tools I need to run my business efficiently, without having to juggle multiple subscriptions or integrations.
Easy Onboarding & Intuitive Interface:
Getting started with Hostex was refreshingly simple. The onboarding process was smooth, and the user interface is intuitive—even for team members who aren’t tech-savvy. Training new staff is quick, and most features are just a click away.
Reliable Channel Management:
Hostex’s channel manager keeps our listings perfectly synchronized across Airbnb, Booking.com, and our direct website. We’ve seen a significant decrease in double bookings and manual errors.
Excellent Value:
For the price, Hostex delivers outstanding value. There are no hidden fees, and the transparent pricing model makes budgeting straightforward. The time saved through automation and the increased operational efficiency more than justify the investment.
Final Thoughts:
If you’re looking to streamline your short-term rental operations, boost guest satisfaction, and gain peace of mind, I wholeheartedly recommend Hostex. It’s a complete, reliable, and innovative solution that has elevated every aspect of our business.

Like many of us, I came to Hostex because of the price; and honestly, it’s unbeatable. For smaller operations like ours, it delivers everything you’d expect from a PMS/Channel Manager (and then some) at a fraction of the cost.
The platform is quick, intuitive, and easy to navigate. The interface isn’t intimidating, and the support team replies fast, with what genuinely feels like real, attentive people behind the screen.
I’m looking forward to the year ahead with Hostex. So far, I don’t think I’ll be disappointed or left unsatisfied.

Setting up a PMS for the first time is stressful. You quickly learn you need to complete your setup and publish on a channel (like Airbnb) before fully entering all your info. Mistakes happen, deadlines loom, and sometimes you have to start over. Honestly, this happens with any PMS because there’s a steep learning curve to understanding each system and channel.
The difference is support. Hostex’s team is helpful and responsive. Time zones can delay replies, but they always get back to you, and late-night support is usually available too. Frustrating setup aside, having their support made the process much smoother.

I've been using Hostex for managing my short-term rentals, and it's been a game-changer. The platform seamlessly integrates with Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com, which makes managing multiple listings a breeze. What I love most is how it automatically syncs my availability and pricing across all platforms, saving me tons of time. The direct booking site is super handy, and the integration with PriceLabs for dynamic pricing is smooth as butter. For anyone juggling multiple rental properties, Hostex has definitely made my life easier and helped me streamline my entire rental management process.

I’ve really enjoyed using Hostex so far. It’s noticeably faster and more responsive than other PMS platforms, which makes daily management much smoother. While there are still a few features that could be expanded, I can see the platform improving rapidly. The development team seems committed and forward-thinking — I truly believe they can take this system even further.
Another highlight is the mobile app — it’s exceptionally well-designed, intuitive, and easy to use. Tasks that are often complicated in other systems, such as modifying reservation dates or switching bookings between properties, can be done effortlessly right from the phone. This makes managing multiple listings much more efficient, even on the go.
I also admire the philosophy and work ethic behind the team; it reflects the same discipline and innovation that have driven China’s impressive technological progress in recent years. It gives me confidence that my business is in good hands and that Hostex will continue evolving into one of the best PMS solutions available.

Easy to setup and to navigate. Support is always helpful if I need it.

With Hostex, I have all my messages from Airbnb and Vrbo integrated into one. Two functions I really like:
1. Messaging automation. Airbnb has it, but VRBO doesn't. With Hostex, I don't have to worry that I forgot to send my guests the check-in information. One suggestion, it would be even better if Hostex can send pictures like Airbnb and VRBO with messages.
2. Task assignment. I really like this function. I can assign my cleaning jobs to my two cleaning ladies with detailed requirements and pictures.
I'd love to recommend Hostex to fellow hosts.

What i get for this price is unrivalled.

Hostex is the top-tier all-in-one property management software in the short-/mid-/long-term rental industry. Users can connect to online travel agencies such as Airbnb, Expedia, Booking.com, and Trip.com. Our experience with Hostex also included managing messages, smart locks, direct bookings, finances, and so much more. Even their customer service has been very helpful and efficient with sorting out any problems. Hostex is constantly adding new features, and we are looking forward to seeing what's next. I highly recommend Hostex to other hosts and property managers.

I tried multiple property management tools and this is the best :) it's the most affordable too

We love using hostex for all our properties. The software is easy to use and navigate. Other property management software had a steep learning curve that was frustrating to someone new to PMS. There isn’t a customer service to call but the virtual support gets back to you if you have any concerns. There are a few issues we’ve encountered with Vrbo syncing and pricelabs but it does notify us when these happens.

I’ve been using Hostex for my short-term rental properties, and it’s been a great experience. The platform makes channel management, guest messaging, and automation easy, all in one place. Syncing with Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com works flawlessly, and the support team is responsive and helpful. The pricing is very competitive, and the features offered are excellent for the cost.

I have looked at a large number of options before subscribing to Hostex.
I love their offering including:
- ability to create a separate independent site for the property, integrated with the Hostex platform to eliminate 3rd parties, with direct payment processing
- ability to manage multiple properties
- ability to automate messages with configurable fields
I love the Customer service which is timely and helpful

Reply from Hostex
I like it a lot, just that there are some features for us businesses that would be even better, like being able to print reservations, include if a direct reservation has paid or not, and calculate total price of the direct reservation automatically.
