Chalets and furnished flats in Kuwait β€” weekend lets in Khiran and Bnaider, and who to ask

In Kuwait, much short letting is the weekend chalet: families book a beach house in Khiran, Bnaider or Zour from Thursday to Saturday, and furnished flats in the city fill with visitors and people between homes. Before you advertise, ask the Ministry of Commerce and Industry what it requires for property advertising and letting, and check your building owner's or lease rules. Mekavo Stay gives you your own booking page, weekend and holiday prices, minimum nights for a Thursday-to-Saturday stay, and a calendar linked with Airbnb and Booking.com.

Mekavo is software, not a regulator. Ask the Ministry of Commerce and Industry about the licence your advertising and letting need, and follow your lease and building rules. Guests pay you directly β€” Mekavo never holds their money.

Why is it free?

πŸ’Ό

Paid for by our other software

Mekavo earns from the tools other businesses pay for. Stay is free for hosts β€” every feature, every place, your whole team. If that ever changes, we will tell you well ahead of time.

πŸ’·

Never a cut of your booking

Guests pay you directly β€” cash, bank transfer or the payment apps people use where you are. Mekavo takes nothing.

🀝

Your guests stay yours

Your page, your guests' phone numbers, your reviews on your own Google listing. Nothing is hidden behind a platform.

How it works

1

Add your place

Photos, rooms, price a night, house times. Choose whether guests see the street, or only the area until you accept them.

2

Link your calendars

Paste your Airbnb, Booking.com or Vrbo calendar link once. A night booked anywhere is closed everywhere.

3

Share your page

Switch your booking page on and send the link. Guests ask to book in their own language β€” no account needed.

4

Answer in a tap

Accept on your phone and send your answer on WhatsApp β€” already written in the guest's language β€” then the arrival info.

β˜€οΈ Your day on one screen

Open Today and see who arrives, who leaves, who is staying and which place to clean β€” across every place you have.

πŸ“… Bookings without double bookings

Keep the sites you already use. Mekavo reads their calendars and shares yours, so every night is in one place.

πŸ—οΈ Guests who feel looked after

Everything a guest needs, in their language, on the WhatsApp or Telegram they already use.

πŸ’³ Your money, your rules

Write down what was agreed and what was paid, and let guests pay online straight to you.

βœ… Proof your place is real

Guests worry a place is not what the photos show. Each proof carries its date; the on-the-spot check and the filming fade after a year unless you renew them.

Questions hosts ask

Is Mekavo Stay really free?

Yes. Every feature, every place and as many people on your team as you need, with no commission on your bookings. Mekavo is paid for by its other software. If that ever changes, we will tell you well ahead of time.

Do I have to leave Airbnb or Booking.com?

No. Link their calendars and a night booked there is closed on your page, and the other way round. Many hosts keep them and take direct bookings with no commission on the side.

Who do my guests pay β€” me or Mekavo?

You. In cash, by bank transfer, or online through your own payment account where one works in your country. Mekavo never holds your guests' money.

Can my cleaner use it without seeing my guests' details?

Yes. Invite them as a cleaner: they see the places and the times to clean, and their checklist β€” never guests' phone numbers, bookings or money.

Will my home address be public?

Only if you choose. By default guests see the town and area; the full address is sent to a guest once you accept them.

Does Mekavo register my guests with the authorities or pay my taxes?

No. Where your country requires a guest report or a registration number, Stay reminds you and keeps the record, but you file it yourself, on the official service.

Can I take bookings for my chalet only at weekends?

Yes. Set minimum nights and weekend prices on the place, and block the weekdays you do not let.

Do I need permission to advertise my chalet?

Ask the Ministry of Commerce and Industry what it requires for property advertising and letting before you publish.

Can my guests read the arrival info in Arabic?

Yes. Your page and arrival information are in Arabic and English, and each guest reads them in their own language.
