Define Your Search

We Monitor Regularly
Our system checks every property in your search multiple times per day, tracking both price changes and availability. We continue monitoring until your check-in date.

Two Ways Stayzio Helps You Save
Price Drop Alerts
We continuously monitor listings around your specified location. When a price drops, you receive a notification, allowing you to book at the reduced rate before someone else does.
Cancellation Alerts
The best properties get booked first. When a previously booked listing becomes available due to a cancellation, we notify you via email. This is your chance to grab a great property and potentially negotiate a discount with the host.
Why Cancellation Alerts Are Valuable
When a booking gets cancelled, hosts are often eager to fill the vacancy. This creates a unique opportunity for you to negotiate a better rate. Here's a template you can use:
“Hi [Host's Name],
I noticed that your property has become available due to a cancellation. I'm very interested in booking it for [your dates]. Given the last-minute nature, would you be open to offering a discount on the current rate?
Thank you,
[Your Name]”
Tip: Hosts lose money on empty nights. A polite message explaining you found their property through a cancellation often leads to discounts of 10-20% or more.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which properties will be monitored?
We monitor Airbnb listings nearest to your chosen location that match your guest count and bedroom requirements.
How long does monitoring last?
We monitor your search until your check-in date passes. After that, the search automatically expires and you'll receive an email letting you know.
I want to watch a specific listing. Can I do that?
To watch a specific listing, just pick a location near it. Stayzio will include it in the monitoring if it's close enough to the location you choose.
What counts as a price drop?
We only notify you about significant price drops to avoid spam from minor fluctuations.
Can I cancel my monitoring?
Yes! Every email we send includes an unsubscribe link. Click it to immediately stop all notifications for that search.
Why do the best properties get booked first?
Popular listings with great reviews, prime locations, and competitive prices tend to get booked quickly. Cancellation alerts give you a second chance at these top properties.
