1) Accountability
When the reservation relationship is between the guest and the property manager only, it’s clean & easy. For example sometimes reservations are not actually processed and the site and the property manager can pass the blame back & forth
2) Greatest Selection of Properties
Sold out doesn’t always mean that a complex is full. Sometimes property managers want to keep their best properties for their guests who book direct.
3) Prompt. Two-way. Unfiltered. Communication
When you book direct, it allows us both to be able to communicate much quicker.
4) Price Match
The big and probably only draw with booking through sites is that they seem to turn up the lowest prices. But what’s not yet common (enough) knowledge is that most properties will scramble to get your direct booking and match any price out there. All you have to do is to present the cheaper price you found elsewhere for the same stay and believe us you will have it!
5) More Flexibility
When you book directly, property managers will often be more willing and able to help should you need to change your travel dates or even cancel, because they’re not bound by some third-party deal.
