## Reviews

### "Going for Guesty" — 5.0/5

> **Susan** | *01 March 2026* | Leisure, Travel & Tourism | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We have been using Guesty for almost 2 years and I’ve started to take some of the most positives for granted which is a good thing. They are integrated with most of the third parties that I want to be.  They have added many of the elements that I was using third-party for like damage insurance. We know at damage insurance to our bookings directly through Guesty instead of through an outside company. We have recently added the accounting module and are getting used to it. Some of the request we’ve made have been upgraded immediately, of which  we are most appreciative.  The automated response system is excellent and the AI for responses is getting better and better . But if they had to put anything to the top of the list, it would definitely be the responsiveness of Customer Service and our account executive. We get help when we need it and that’s worth everything.
> 
> **Cons**: What I like least is that our advanced website is not editable simultaneously with the booking engine so there is some extra wor. But we think that this may be solved quite soon.
> 
> We we have overall found that switching to Guesty as our PMS has made our life in our work much easier and more fun. There have been pain points, but we feel that they’ve been solved or that we’ve been assured that they will be. All is good and I feel comfortable recommending it.

### "Guesty must be the best" — 5.0/5

> **Julian** | *02 March 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Has to be the leading PMS for vacation rentals right now. Full of features, powerful and reliable. Decent support available, and business development always in mind.
> 
> **Cons**: Password requirements, and user permissions management can be a bit clunky. Payout information can be tricky and reporting / analytics isn't as good as some other available.
> 
> Great, and I'm a loyal customer of 5 years now. Wouldn't consider moving PMS unless they were able to display some seriously good USP\!

### "Powerful Property Management Platform for Short-Term Rentals" — 5.0/5

> **Raam** | *01 April 2026* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I liked most about Guesty is how it simplifies managing multiple rental properties. The synchronization across booking platforms works reliably, which helps avoid scheduling conflicts and saves a lot of time. I also found the dashboard helpful for managing reservations, payments, and guest communication in one place.&#10;&#10;The platform feels secure when handling payments, and the support team has been responsive when questions come up. While small bugs occasionally happen, they are usually resolved quickly. Overall, Guesty provides strong value for property managers who want automation and centralized control of their listings.
> 
> **Cons**: The pricing can be a bit expensive for smaller property managers, and some advanced features are only available in higher-tier plans. The interface may feel overwhelming at first due to the number of tools available. Occasionally there are minor bugs or delays in synchronization across channels, and customer support response times can sometimes vary depending on the issue.
> 
> Overall, my experience with Guesty has been very positive. The platform provides powerful tools that simplify managing multiple short-term rental listings across different booking channels. Automation features, centralized communication, and reliable synchronization help save time and reduce manual work. While there is a learning curve at the beginning and the pricing may be higher for smaller hosts, the efficiency and organization it brings to property management make it a valuable solution for growing rental businesses.
