We will get  Full Sync (!!!) via our channel manager, which means we can process everything about particular booking via Expedia within our backend IT system.Convenience, ease of management which is translated to spot on hosting experience for our guests and better availability, reporting and revenue streams handling for our owners.

Listed: New OLR property at Seawind On The Bay, Freeport, Montego Bay

We are excited to announce that we have a new property to market and manage. It is located in one of most established and tranquil communities in Freeport. Simple, comfortable and on the budget, just across the beach @ Hardrock Cafe and next to the Mobay Yacht Club.

We know Seawind On The Bay inside and out and build up a rapport with management of the complex, security and helpers on site.

We would like to expand our portfolio at Seawinds, the property has amazing potential for short term rentals. We can feel it and see it. Not all properties at the complex are ready for the market though, but this is another story, which can have a happy ending if owner[s] will be willing to make improvements to get to the level required by the market.

No problems with onboarding. Our professional photographer did an excellent job:

Announcement: OLR added our properties to Booking.com. Banzai !

We have signed an agreement with www.booking.com to list, advertise and process bookings via their network of websites.

We got some bookings!

Number of channels supported: 5

Almost there. Expedia is next. Thank you for your patience.

What are the channels and why do you must get on as many as you can ?

Ok. Channels. Airbnb is a channel. It is a website that brings plenty of potential guests who are looking for a place to stay. There are quite a few channels out there. Airbnb is one of the industry leaders, but there are other “monsters” out of there such as Booking.com, Homeway/VRBO, TripAdvisor (and other sites that they own), Expedia, etc.

Some guests like Airbnb and some are using Booking.com. In order to get as many bookings as possible we want to be on all major and also niche (if applicable to our market segment) channels as well.

More channels for your listings means more potential bookings -> more income.

In the same time, more channels translates to more problems, which needs to be addressed or/and resolved: synchronizations of the calendars, booking tracking and follow up, different pricing entry points (each channel has their own fees and other trickery). Don’t fret, this is our job, as well as getting your properties to all major channels to bring you more wonderful guests and additional revenue.

Announcement: OLR added our properties to TripAdvisor.com. Ура !

We have signed an agreement with www.tripadvisor.com to list, advertise and process bookings via their network of websites.

We like them, very slick interface. Already got a few bookings ! That was fast, our owners will be happy for such addition.

Sync via iCal – our software provider is on it.

Number of channels supported: 4
