Hostaway’s Plum Guide Channel Manager Offers You More

Advertise your properties on Plum Guide and run the day-to-day operations from the same dashboard you use for every other channel.

Plum Guide accepts only a small share of homes in each market, so a listing there signals real quality to premium travelers. Connect it to Hostaway and manage your Plum Guide property next to Airbnb, Vrbo, and the rest of your channels. One dashboard keeps your calendar, rates, and content in sync.

How is Hostaway’s Plum Guide channel manager different?

Plum Guide is a curated marketplace that lists roughly the top 3% of homes in each market. Every property goes through the Plum Test, a review the company describes as around 150 criteria covering design, comfort, location, cleanliness, and the guest experience, with local experts assessing each home. For a premium or design-led property, acceptance works as a quality signal that sets it apart from broader listing sites.

With Hostaway connected, your Plum Guide listing stays aligned with the rest of your channels. Availability, rates, and listing content sync between platforms, so a booking on one channel updates the others and reduces the risk of double bookings. You manage reservations, pricing, and calendars from a single dashboard rather than logging into Plum Guide separately.

Why use a Channel Manager for Plum Guide

A channel manager keeps calendars, availability, and rates in sync everywhere you list, so a booking on one channel blocks those dates on all the others and double bookings stop being a risk. That is what lets you add Plum Guide to your mix without adding manual work: listings go live from the same dashboard, reservations flow into one calendar, and your team onboards new properties without re-entering data.
