Direct booking websites for agriturismi and stays in Italy
Italy's independent stays — Tuscan agriturismi, Amalfi boutique hotels, Puglia villas, city apartments — pay the OTA's share on every stay. PeakRooms gives you a booking website of your own, in euros, so guests book direct and the relationship stays yours.
A €150 night on an OTA pays you about €127 — €23 to commission, at a typical 15%. On your own website it pays you €150: 0% commission, on every plan.

The short answer
PeakRooms gives an independent Italian property — a Tuscan agriturismo, an Amalfi boutique hotel, a Puglia villa, a Florence apartment — its own direct-booking website, priced in euros and built to take bookings the way Italy books: a tap to chat on WhatsApp, or a card payment. Booking.com and Airbnb take 15–20% of every stay; direct through PeakRooms there's none. You own the guest, set the rate, and start free — the commission-free direct channel for Italy's agriturismi, boutique hotels, and villas.
Direct booking in Italy
Italy's guests find a place on Booking.com or Airbnb, then message to arrange the check-in, the transfer, the dinner — and in Italy that conversation happens on WhatsApp, the country's everyday messaging app. A direct booking website priced in euros, with a WhatsApp chat one tap from every room, meets guests where they book and keeps the commission an OTA would take on a stay that was already yours.

Built for Italy's agriturismi, boutique hotels, and villas
Built for an agriturismo or villa
Present a Tuscan agriturismo or an Amalfi boutique like the place it is — a photo-led site built around one property, with the setting and the welcome a listing tile can't show.
Priced in euros, paid direct
Show your rates in EUR and take the booking yourself — no OTA markup, and no commission taken from the stay.
Check-in, transfer, dinner — one WhatsApp thread
An agriturismo stay is arranged in conversation, not a portal inbox. Every enquiry is one tap to a chat with you, and request-to-book turns it into a confirmed stay.
Keep the 15–20% an OTA takes
Booking.com and Airbnb take 15–20% of every stay. Direct through PeakRooms there's none — the euros a guest pays stay with you.
Questions owners in Italy ask
- Can I set my rates in euros (EUR)?
- Yes. You set your rates in euros, and that's exactly what a guest sees and pays — no conversion, and no OTA markup taken along the way.
- I run an agriturismo — is PeakRooms a fit?
- Yes — an agriturismo is a first-class use. The whole site is built around your place, priced in euros, with WhatsApp or card booking, so you keep the commission an OTA would take on every stay.
- Do I keep my Booking.com and Airbnb listings too?
- Yes. Keep them for reach, and use PeakRooms as your own euro-priced, commission-free channel for the repeat and direct guests you win. One honest note: calendars don't sync across channels yet, so when a booking lands, block those dates on the other side — a few taps.
