Bespoke guest sites · Designed, not templated
Your property deserves more than a template.
Every other guest guide is a SaaS subscription you rent and fill in yourself. Welcomly is bespoke — designed for your property, written in your voice, hosted free forever, owned by you.
Be one of the first ten.
Start with the guide that solves the real problem.
Welcomly is new. To build the case studies and host references that earn the next hundred customers, we are inviting the first ten properties into the Founding Hosts Programme for The Guest Guide: launch pricing, first-year Care included, and founder-led service from intake to delivery.
How the Founding Programme works
Apply in five minutes
Tell us about your property and what you want guests to feel when they arrive. We are selecting for properties whose owners care about presentation as much as their reviews.
We build, you wait
If your property is a fit, we confirm within two business days. Your site is designed and built founder-to-host, with a live preview ready 7-14 days from your completed brief.
You decide
See the finished site exactly as it would launch. Love it? Pay the Founding price via Stripe. Not for you? No payment, no awkwardness, and our thanks for letting us try.
Every Welcomly site we build helps us refine the product and earn the next ten customers. The hosts who say yes become our first named case studies. The hosts who say no help us learn.
That will not be true forever. Once ten Founding Hosts are live, the programme closes and standard pricing returns. The Founding price is never offered again.

The Welcomly Difference
Designed, not templated.
Owned, not rented.
Built, not built-by-you.
Three things every subscription guidebook structurally cannot offer.
Designed, not templated.
Every site starts with your property — its character, voice, photography, and surroundings. No two Welcomly sites look alike, because no two properties are alike.
Owned, not rented.
Pay once. The site is yours, hosted by us free, forever. Stop paying for Care any time — your site stays live, and source code is available if you want to self-manage.
Built, not built-by-you.
Paste your Airbnb listing. Fill in a short brief. We design, write, and publish. The hours a SaaS template would cost you, you spend on your guests instead.
What's Wrong With The Alternatives
You can solve this with a template.
You shouldn't.
Every other answer to the welcome-guide problem looks the same: a SaaS app, a template to fill in, a subscription forever, and a site that looks like every other site built on the same platform. A property worth booking is not a templated experience. Your guests will notice.
Touch Stay sites look like Touch Stay. Hostfully sites look like Hostfully. Your property is none of those things — it shouldn't look like all the others.
Monthly subscriptions add up fast. Five years of rental fees can cost more than a bespoke site — and if you stop paying, the guide disappears.
"Self-service" means you spend hours building the guidebook yourself. Your time has a higher rate than that — or it should.
A boutique stay sitting next to a competitor with an identical-looking guidebook signals you're the same product. You're not. The guide should say so.
The reviews that earn you Superhost are never about the thread count. They're about the feeling — that someone thought of everything before you arrived.
The Process
The whole point:
we do the work.
Paste your Airbnb listing URL. We pre-fill what's public. You add only the details guests need that Airbnb doesn't have — check-in, WiFi, local favourites. Most hosts spend under an hour. Then we build.
Who It Is For
One product first.
The clearest host problem first.
Welcomly is starting with the host class we can help fastest: self-managed Airbnb hosts who want fewer repeat messages and a more professional arrival experience.
Built For · The Self-Managed Operator
If your guests are still messaging you for the WiFi at 11pm, this is for you.
Self-managed hosts running one to three reliable listings. The pain is operational: check-in confusion, WiFi messages, parking, bin rules, repeat questions about the same five things.
What you get back: your evenings. A polished, single-page site that answers everything before guests ask.
The Guest Guide · €490
Built Around · Guest Confidence
The answers guests need, exactly when they need them.
The Guest Guide is deliberately focused on the moments guests actually open a guide: finding the door, connecting to WiFi, understanding the house, choosing a nearby meal, and checking out cleanly.
What guests get: one calm, mobile-friendly link that makes the stay feel thought-through before they have to ask.
The Guest Guide · clear from arrival to checkout
