In the world of hospitality, direct booking refers to a reservation made directly by a guest, bypassing third-party platforms. Understanding direct bookings is crucial for property owners and managers
What is a Direct Booking?
At Jurny, a direct booking occurs when a guest makes a reservation for your property directly through your website or the Jurny App, without involving third-party booking platforms like Airbnb, Booking.com, VRBO, or Expedia. This is a valuable channel for hosts as it allows for a more personalized connection with guests.
You can create a website on Jurny by using our powerful Booking Engine feature which will allow you to create your website.

Can I use my website?
Great question! If you are already an advanced user and you already have your website hosted somewhere else, you can connect it to your Jurny account without any issues. Keep the wonderful front end on your external solution while managing your listings on Jurny!
To achieve this, rely on your onboarding representative.
What are the benefits?
A direct booking means more than just a reservation—it's an opportunity to establish a direct connection with your guests and take control of your property's success. If you already have a website, you can include forms, newsletters, and specific discounts for your recurrent guests. By utilizing the Booking Engine feature, you not only simplify the booking process but also enhance your property's visibility and revenue potential.
