Our Story

We're property owners too.
We got tired of the math.

We ran vacation rentals. Beautiful properties in Europe that we'd spent years building, furnishing, and perfecting. And every month, we watched 15-20% of our revenue vanish into OTA fees.

For what exactly? A listing? A calendar? A messaging system that locked us into their platform and kept us from ever owning our guest relationships?

The answer was nothing. They provided nothing that justified taking a fifth of our revenue. So we built Solvaya.

Not as yet another channel manager. As a statement: property owners deserve better. You built the asset. You welcome the guests. You do the work. You should keep the money.

The people behind it

Three people who got fed up. Three different skillsets. One mission.

Jonathan

Developer & AI Lead

Built the platform from the ground up. Previously ran 3 vacation rentals in Italy. Got tired of watching Booking.com take 17% of every booking while providing zero value.

Milan

Sales & Partnerships

Spent a decade in hospitality tech. Saw how OTAs squeeze property owners from the inside. Joined Solvaya to build the alternative he always wished existed.

Niels

Marketing & Growth

Grew a portfolio of 12 properties to 95% direct bookings in 18 months. Knows exactly what it takes to break free from OTA dependence. Now helps others do the same.

Our mission & values

To make every vacation rental owner
independent of OTA commissions.

Transparency

No hidden fees. No “processing fees.” No surprise charges. €29/property/month. The price you see is the price you pay. More importantly, you'll always know exactly what you're keeping and what you're paying.

Ownership

Your guests are your guests. Their data belongs to you. Their loyalty belongs to your property, not to an OTA. We give you the tools to own every relationship you build.

Fairness

Flat pricing, not percentage-based. Your cost doesn't go up when you succeed. We grow when you stay, not when we extract. That's not just pricing — it's a philosophy.

Join the independence movement.

Built by owners. Priced for owners. Designed to make OTAs irrelevant in your life. €29/property/month. No commission. No catch.
