Aimei Bang Saray: paradise, minus the paperwork.

Three Japanese-style holiday houses and a café-bar in Bang Saray, Thailand. It was the first business we built this system for, and much of what we now offer clients was proven here.

The problem

Three houses, one café, too many inboxes.

Guests booked through Airbnb and Booking.com, messaged on LINE and WhatsApp, and expected answers in Thai at any hour. Calendars had to be checked by hand. The platforms took their commission on every stay.

The owner also runs other businesses, so anything that needed someone glued to a phone all day was a problem.

What we built

Three moving parts. One calm owner.

  1. 01

    A direct booking site

    aimeibangsaray.com takes bookings direct. Beds24 runs the calendar and keeps Airbnb and Booking.com in step by iCal, so nothing double-books.

  2. 02

    A bookings agent

    It reads guest messages in Thai or English, checks the calendar and drafts a reply in the guest's language. The owner approves it before it goes.

  3. 03

    A daily brief

    Every morning: who's arriving, who's leaving, what's unanswered and what needs a decision. Two minutes to read, then the day is planned.

See it work

From “sawasdee” to sorted.

Step through one guest message. The conversation is an illustration of the flow, not a real guest.

11:42 pm

A guest writes in Thai

A guest asks on LINE whether a house is free next weekend and if they can bring their dog. It's late and the owner is off duty.
