SMS Messaging Add-on Highlights: Guest Messaging Service for Vacation Rentals
The direct guest messaging add-on allows you to automate SMS communication for your property. Get full control over every guest text message, condition, recipient, and cost.
Automate SMS for Booking Updates
Automated guest messaging can be triggered by important booking updates: when a reservation is placed and awaits confirmation, when a booking is confirmed, or when it is canceled.
You can notify the guest, the administrator, or both recipients. This SMS WordPress plugin add-on gives you flexibility to set each notification to have its own recipients, content, and property settings.
Notify Guests About Successful Online Payments
If you use online payments in the MotoPress Hotel Booking plugin, you may also send an SMS when an instant online payment for a booking is successfully completed. This will reassure the guest that their transaction was processed.
It works for all online payment processors available through Hotel Booking and can be used for both full payments and deposits. However, note that offline payment methods such as direct bank transfers or payment on arrival can’t trigger such SMS.

Schedule Messages Around Check-In and Check-Out
In addition to default booking updates, you may create custom SMS notifications that are not tied to a booking status. Share door codes, directions, parking information, house rules, late checkout offers, or simply improve your vacation rental SMS marketing.
Simply choose how many days before or after check-in or check-out the message should be sent. For example, you can send arrival instructions one day before check-in, a reminder on the morning of departure, or a review request two days after checkout.
Create Notifications for All or Selected Properties
We’ve made sure your vacation rental SMS creation is super quick. You can apply an SMS notification to every accommodation or limit it to selected properties. General messages, such as booking confirmations or payment notifications, can be shared across all your accommodations.
At the same time, you can create unlimited property-specific notifications with different instructions and content.
Send Manual SMS Notifications When Needed
In addition to the automated text message triggers, it’s easy to send manual SMSs when needed. These are great for any unexpected changes, personal updates, urgent requests, or information that cannot be scheduled beforehand.
When you need to send one, you simply open the relevant booking or payment, choose a notification, and click “Send SMS Notification”.
Personalize Messages with Automated Tags
Each guest SMS is actually a personalized message. Thanks to automated tags that you may want to insert, reservation information will differ for each text message.
These tags can be replaced with details such as the booking ID, guest information, check-in and check-out dates, or other reservation data. You can also include property-specific information to send different details to different guests. For example, each property can have its own address, access instructions, or WiFi information even for the same notification type.
Alter the Same Messages for Different Properties
The add-on allows you to create general booking notifications for your entire business, while keeping arrival instructions, access codes, directions, promotions, and other property-related information specific to each accommodation.
For example, guests booking different properties may need different:
- Key collection instructions or door and lockbox codes
- WiFi details
- Local partner discounts
- Directions or public transport instructions
Review the Complete SMS History
In this WordPress SMS plugin’s settings, you can view the SMS history for all previously sent messages. The log shows when an SMS was sent, its delivery status, its destination country and phone number, and the exact message content.
You can also see how many credits were charged for the message to understand its actual cost. Failed, delivered, and other available message statuses are also recorded in the history.
