What Smoobu does
Smoobu is a cloud-based software package for people who run short-term and vacation rentals. Its core pieces are a channel manager that keeps calendars in sync across connected booking sites, and a property management system that brings all rentals into one place. Around those it offers a booking engine for direct reservations, scheduled and personalized guest messages, team member accounts, online check-in, a guest guide and a website builder. The vendor says it suits everything from single apartments to larger portfolios, including boutique hotels, bed and breakfasts, guest houses, campsites and farm stays.
Smoobu connects calendars from Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia and over 100 booking portals, and lists over 40 integrations with other apps and tools. It runs in the browser, with iOS and Android apps, and full API access is listed.
There is no free plan on the pricing page, but a 14-day free trial needs no credit card. Paid plans are Professional Flex (0.9% booking fee), Professional Prepaid (€35 per month billed monthly, €31.50 per month billed yearly) and Teams Pro+ (€55 per month billed monthly, €49.50 per month billed yearly). Prepaid and Teams Pro+ carry no booking fee. Prices depend on the number of units selected. Extra units start from €9.60 per month, and extra write-access accounts from €12 per month.

Our take
Smoobu fits hosts and small property managers who want calendar sync, guest messaging and a booking website in one subscription, and who are happy to pay per unit. It is less suited to anyone looking for a permanent free plan, since only a 14-day trial is offered. Costs grow with each added unit and write-access account, so portfolio size matters. The Flex plan trades a 0.9% booking fee for a lower entry price, whereas Prepaid and Teams Pro+ have no commission. Anyone with more than 20 properties is asked to request a personalized quote.
