Calculate Extra Guest, Cleaning and Booking Fees in Resly

We are excited to announce a big change to fee calculation within Resly. 

For a lot of our holiday home group clients, cleaning and booking fees are separated from the accommodation total. This change will help a lot. 

For traditional resort clients, if cleaning and booking fees are paid by the owners, this may not be relevant so you can safely ignore this.

Set up cleaning/booking fees

Starting now, you will be able to set up different account codes, descriptions, and accounts for these fees under Settings / Room Types.


Fee calculation for direct bookings

When you create a new reservation, these fees will be calculated and added to the total cost, and can also be viewed as a breakdown table on the new reservation page.


Fee calculation for OTA bookings

Additionally, when reservations are dropped in from OTAs, the corresponding cleaning and booking fees for that room type will be automatically applied and can be found in the separated charge lines. 


Note that for channels like Booking.com, the total gross amount will be recorded and used to calculate agent rebates, which can also be adjusted manually. Just click the Accommodation line and make changes here if needed.

Resly Direct+: Guests Can Now Choose to See All Room Types and Listings

We are excited to announce a new feature for Resly Direct+: the ability for guests to view all room types and listings, even if they are not currently available.

This new feature allows guests to get a better understanding of the full range of options available at a property, and to plan their future stays with more flexibility. When searching for rooms, guests can now select the option to view all room types, rather than just those that are currently available.

We hope this new feature will make it easier for guests to find the perfect room for their needs, and we look forward to continuing to improve the Resly Direct+ experience for all of our customers.


Bonus: We also updated the starting page to prompt users to search for their stay instead of searching dates by default as sometimes the whole property may have no availability at all, which confuses the guests.

Individual Availability Calendar in Resly Direct+

We are pleased to announce a new feature in the Resly Direct+ booking engine that allows guests to check the availability for an individual room type or listing. This means that when booking a stay, guests will be able to see the calendar availability for the specific room type or listing that they want to stay in.

This update is designed to provide a more convenient and efficient booking experience for guests. With the ability to see the availability of individual room types and listings, guests can easily find and book the accommodation that best meets their needs.

As a manager, you won't miss out on bookings because guests will be able to see the availability of the exact room type or listing that they want. 


Thank you for using Resly Direct+. If you have any questions or feedback about this new feature, please don't hesitate to reach out.

You Can Now Disable Children Options in Resly Direct+

We are excited to announce that the Resly Direct+ booking engine now has the ability to disable children options for adult-only resorts. This means that when booking a stay at an adult-only resort, customers will not be able to select children as part of their reservation.

This new feature is designed to ensure that adult-only resorts are able to maintain their atmosphere and cater to the preferences of their guests. We hope this update will enhance the booking experience for both customers and resorts.

To enable this, go to Resly Direct+ under General tab, Tick the Adults Only checkbox and your booking engine will be updated.


And this is what it looks like on the booking page:
