My Guidebook Buddy

About

We built the simple thing nobody else was building.

Every property has the same guest problem. The guest arrives, wants to know what’s actually worth doing nearby, and ends up Googling on their phone — same place they could’ve started before arriving. The property doesn’t feature in any of it.

That gap is the whole opportunity. A property-specific guidebook on the guest’s phone, populated with what’s actually close, instantly bookable, free of fluff. We built that.

Existing guest-experience platforms charge the property a monthly fee. We don’t. We earn a small commission when guests book experiences through the guidebook. The property pays nothing.

That model only works where there’s enough bookable experience inventory near the property to support it. Some areas qualify, some don’t. We tell you up front. If yours doesn’t qualify, Orana Stay offers the same product on a paid plan.

No contract either way. No surprise charges. No "free trial" that converts into a bill.

My Guidebook Buddy is the worldwide version. The Coastal Concierge is our Florida-Gulf-Coast-focused sister brand on the same backend. Orana Stay is the paid version. Same team, same product, three brands for three audiences.

See if your area qualifies.
