RueBaRue

I was one of the first users of RueBaRue and continue to use it now 2 years later. There are many features of the site that allow me to give my renter guests a better experience when they come stay with me. I love that the website owner is receptive to feedback and always willing to make suggested improvements.

One of the biggest problems solved was the lack of communication with our guests throughout their stay. Most of our guests used to let us know their issues at check-out time. Now we are receiving messages during their stay, giving us a chance to solve the issues before they leave.

The support team is proactive in letting us know if there are any issues, and when we have had any issues they are quick to respond to our issue. The user interface with our office staff is great. It automates guest communication prior to arrival (e.g. driving directions, access codes), and it allows us to notify guests of weather/traffic/elevator issues with alerts with a click of a button. The review process is also ideal for obtaining positive guest reviews on google.

Whether the vacation rental company is large or small, having everything in one place for the guest is beyond convenient! Our guests LOVE RueBaRue. The Property Guide and Destination Guide are so beautifully presented and easily customized for our company - takes away the tedious upkeep of an in-home manual. I like the ability to actually show hospitality to our guests by communicating w/ them so easily through RueBaRue. Not only do we provide a clean, luxurious home for our guests, but the ability to let them know that we are available should something be amiss or make a recommendation for the area is icing on the cake. People look forward to their vacation time, and RueBaRue adds to that excitement by having every little detail thought out and provided for our guests. From the Property Guide and Destination Guide to the ability to communicate w/ our guests and send out automated informative texts is critical for exceptional customer service. Guests love RueBaRue and I think it helps us stand out as the luxury boutique company that we are. Thank you RueBaRue ~ you’ve made us a better company!

I know giving our all 10’s and 5 stars for everything seems like a fake review but RueBaRue really deserves it! I can’t be more enthusiastic about this site / service. My company, Vacation Concierge, manages over 20 properties in South Orange County, CA. We’ve found RueBaRue to be the most accurate and efficient way to communicate with our guests before and during their stay. It’s so easy to customize for each of our properties. The destination and property guidebooks can be as general or as comprehensive as you need them to be. All the information is in one location… the arrival instructions, wifi info, lock box codes, and any additional information they may need before their stay is at our guests fingertips. Having an arrival email sent several days before and a follow up text sent the day before our guests arrival is just the cherry on top. RueBaRue is also a great way to show what local and regional activities we offer in the area so our guests can start to plan their vacation before they arrive. Having a link on their phone is perfect for sharing with friends and family who may also be staying or visiting for a few days. We’ve been told it’s incredibly handy during a guest stay when they’re out and about and are looking for a good restaurant or the closest beach. The bottom line… RueBaRue makes us look more professional than our competition and has given me back my time so that I can focus on our guests.

We love Ruebarue for Minimizing Phone Calls, and clearly getting critical arrival/departure information in front of our guests. One Enhancement - Allow guests to have access to a shareable property guide link so that they can easily type in a phone number and they can send the guide to others in their party so I don’t have to. I know the guest could send out the original link, but they may not realize they can copy, paste, and send that to others.
