Keep more direct-booking revenue

Why hosts add it
Commission rates vary by market and listing type. Showing your Airbnb availability on your own website gives high-intent visitors a reason to book with you directly.
When guests book through Airbnb you pay commission on every stay. Showing the same availability on your own website gives direct bookings a home where you keep 100 percent of the revenue.
iCal sync pulls availability from Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com automatically, so a stay booked on one channel blocks the same dates on your website too.
iCal feeds only expose blocked dates. Guest names, emails, and personal details from your Airbnb bookings never leave the platform.
Behind the widget
The embed on your website is backed by a sync engine that keeps your Airbnb availability current and an appearance studio that makes the calendar look like yours.
Sync engine
RentalBeam reads your Airbnb iCal feed - alongside VRBO, Booking.com, or any other iCal URL - and keeps one combined calendar current on its own, re-checking yours at most every 15 minutes.
Appearance studio
Guests arriving from an Airbnb search should not land on a widget that looks bolted on. Plus and Pro start you from a one-click preset, then let you set the available, booked, and closed colors, the font, and the background. The calendar follows your site's own light, dark, or auto theme.
Widget features
Free starts with one source and one embed. Plus and Pro add source aggregation, manual date controls, export URLs, branding removal, and sync monitoring.
Availability calendar
Availability stays current on its own, across every channel you use.
Style it, control it, and scale it to match your brand and portfolio.
Free to start, private by default, and ready for every visitor.
Speaks your guests' language
The widget detects each visitor's browser language automatically, or you can force one language in the embed, so guests who find your Airbnb listing through search still read open and booked dates in their own words.
Guest experience
Open the real booking form, keep the flow inquiry-first if you want, or start guest card payments from the same widget when you are ready.

Common questions about the Airbnb calendar widget
No. RentalBeam Pro takes zero commission and adds no RentalBeam booking fee - your direct booking revenue is 100% yours. The booking form widget, guest payment workflow, coupon codes, seasonal pricing, custom fields, and booking rules are all included. The only cost when a guest pays by card through RentalBeam is the standard Stripe card-processing fee, which is paid to Stripe, not RentalBeam. Inquiry-only and pay-later flows have no per-transaction cost.
No. RentalBeam never takes a commission on your booking revenue on any plan, and Pro adds no RentalBeam booking or application fee. If a guest pays by card through RentalBeam, only the standard Stripe card-processing fee applies - that fee goes to Stripe, the same as any payment processor. Inquiry-only, pay-later, and off-platform bookings (such as bank transfer) have no per-transaction cost at all.
Yes. RentalBeam Pro includes coupon codes, percentage and fixed-amount discount rules, and seasonal pricing tiers. You can run promotional codes for repeat guests, configure off-season discounts, and combine them with custom fees and booking rules from the same booking form widget setup.
Yes. On Pro, every booking notification email includes a reply address linked to that booking. Reply in Gmail, Apple Mail, or any email app and your message goes to the guest. When they reply, it comes back to your inbox and is saved in the dashboard Messages tab. Your personal email address is never shared with the guest.
When guests book through Airbnb, you pay 15 to 20 percent in commission fees. By showing your Airbnb availability on your own website, you can drive direct bookings where you keep 100 percent of the revenue. Even a few direct bookings per year can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars.
An iCal URL is a feed of your Airbnb booking availability that updates automatically. Your website calendar reads this feed to display current blocked and available dates. Exact timing can vary with each platform's iCal cache, but RentalBeam refreshes your availability at most every 15 minutes.
Yes. The calendar widget only displays booked versus available dates. Guest names, contact information, and personal details from Airbnb bookings remain private.
The calendar shows your real-time availability. To accept direct bookings, add the RentalBeam booking form widget (Pro plan) alongside the calendar. Guests see your availability and can request a reservation directly, bypassing Airbnb commissions entirely.
No technical skills required. The process takes about 2 minutes: copy your Airbnb iCal URL, paste it into our widget creator, customize colors if desired, and embed the code on your website. It works on WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, and all major builders.
Yes. Each property has its own iCal URL from Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, and other platforms. You can add multiple URLs to one widget to show unified availability across all your rental properties and booking platforms in a single view, preventing double bookings.
The availability calendar is available on RentalBeam's Free plan with 1 rental and 1 iCal source. Plus and Pro add 3, 10, or 25 rentals - or a custom quantity for larger portfolios - up to 10 iCal sources per rental, and support monthly or annual billing. The 3-rental tier of Plus or Pro comes with a 7-day free trial on monthly or annual billing.
No impact whatsoever. The widget simply reads your publicly available iCal calendar feed that Airbnb provides. It does not interact with your Airbnb account, listing, or search visibility in any way.
Traditional PMS platforms often cost $50-$500 per month and are built to run a full operation. RentalBeam is focused on iCal availability display and direct booking workflows, while still working alongside Airbnb, VRBO, and other channels.
The rest of the widget set
The Airbnb calendar widget is one of three embeddable RentalBeam widgets you can add to the same rental.
