What Bookalet is
Bookalet is a web-based booking management system for holiday lets, supporting direct reservations through an operator's own website. It manages availability, bookings, guest correspondence, payment tracking, and invoicing, and can send automated responses such as confirmations. Channel management syncs availability with Airbnb, Booking.com, and Vrbo. Widgets for rate cards, calendars, enquiries, reviews, and online booking can be embedded on sites built with services including WordPress, Squarespace, GoDaddy, Wix, Elementor, IONOS, Promote My Place, and Weebly. Online payments can go to the operator's merchant services, PayPal, or Stripe account. Plans cost £139 a year for Lite, £189 a year for Pro, and £239 a year for Team, billed annually excluding VAT. Lite covers one to two bookables and one user but has no channel management; Pro supports up to 50 bookables and five users, while Team lists unlimited properties and users. Enterprise pricing is POA. Bookalet offers a 30-day free trial and one-to-one onboarding.
