Automated Vacation Rental Booking Confirmation

The moment a booking is confirmed in Guesty, WebRun pulls the reservation details, assembles a guest-ready confirmation message with check-in time, door code, directions, and house rules, drafts it in Gmail for your review, and logs the send in Google Sheets.

In short

How can I automatically send guests booking confirmations and check-in information?

WebRun detects each new confirmed reservation in Guesty, pulls the guest details, door code, directions, and house rules, and drafts a complete check-in confirmation in Gmail for your review. Once you approve and send, the guest has everything they need, and the booking is logged in Google Sheets.

  • Every guest gets a complete check-in email within minutes of booking, not hours
  • No reservation slips through without confirmation details
  • Zero manual copy-paste of door codes and directions

Built for vacation rental managers · short-term rental hosts · property management companies · Airbnb and Vrbo hosts

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it send the confirmation email automatically without me checking it?

No. WebRun drafts the confirmation in Gmail and leaves it unsent for your review. You approve and send it, so nothing reaches a guest without your sign-off.

Where does it get the door code and house rules?

It reads them from the listing details already stored in Guesty. Keep your property info up to date there and every confirmation will reflect the latest details.

What if a booking comes in through Airbnb or Vrbo?

Guesty syncs reservations from all connected OTAs, so any booking that lands in Guesty, regardless of its source, triggers the workflow.

Put this on autopilot.
