What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 6, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • hostaway_list_listings

    List the account's properties (listings) with name, address, capacity, base price, fees and check-in times. Filter by name, city, country, property type, availability for a date range and guest count, or active/archived status. Hostaway: GET /v1/listings.

  • hostaway_get_listing

    Fetch a single listing by id — full details including description, house rules, amenities, images, fees, taxes, cancellation policy and access info (door code, wifi). Hostaway: GET /v1/listings/{listingId}.

  • hostaway_list_reservations

    List reservations across all channels (Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, direct…) with guest, dates, status, price and channel. Filter by listing, channel, arrival/departure window, guest name or email, unread messages, and more. Default order is newest first; for large accounts page wi

  • hostaway_get_reservation

    Fetch a single reservation by its Hostaway id — guest contact details, dates, guest counts, price breakdown, payment state, door code, notes, channel and cancellation policy. Hostaway: GET /v1/reservations/{reservationId}.

  • hostaway_get_reservation_logs

    The audit trail for one reservation: every field change with previous and new value, when, and by which user (most recent first). Useful for 'who changed these dates / this price?'. Hostaway: GET /v1/reservations/{reservationId}/logs.

  • hostaway_get_calendar

    Day-by-day availability and pricing for one listing over a date range: status (available, blocked, reserved, pending), nightly price, min/max stay, closed-to-arrival/departure and notes. Set includeResources to see the reservations occupying each day. Hostaway: GET /v1/listings/{

  • hostaway_calculate_price

    Calculate what a stay at a listing would cost — total price plus the component breakdown (base rate, cleaning fee, taxes, discounts). A calculation only: nothing is booked or held. Hostaway: POST /v1/listings/{listingId}/calendar/priceDetails (version 2).

  • hostaway_list_conversations

    List guest conversations (the unified inbox across channels), each with its latest message and linked reservation. Filter to one reservation. Hostaway: GET /v1/conversations.

  • hostaway_list_conversation_messages

    The messages in one guest conversation — body, direction (isIncoming), channel/email/SMS type, send status and timestamps. By default only sent messages; set includeScheduledMessages to also see scheduled, paused or failed ones. Hostaway: GET /v1/conversations/{conversationId}/me

  • hostaway_list_reviews

    List guest-to-host and host-to-guest reviews with rating (0-10), public review, private feedback and the host's reply. Filter by listings, reservation, type, status, rating range, dates, guest name, or whether the host has replied. Hostaway: GET /v1/reviews.

  • hostaway_list_tasks

    List operational tasks (cleaning, maintenance, check-in/out) with assignee, status, time window and cost. Filter by reservation, status, text match, channel, or start/deadline windows. Hostaway: GET /v1/tasks.

  • hostaway_list_expenses

    List expenses (negative amounts) and extras (positive amounts) recorded against listings and reservations, with date, concept, categories and the owner statements they appear on. Hostaway: GET /v1/expenses.

  • hostaway_list_owner_statements

    List the account's owner statements (id and name). Hostaway: GET /v1/ownerStatements.

  • hostaway_get_owner_statement

    Fetch one owner statement — the filter it was generated with (listings, date range), summary and per-reservation financial data, grand totals, expenses, and owner / property-manager details. Hostaway: GET /v1/ownerStatement/{ownerStatementId}.

  • hostaway_create_reservation

    Create a new reservation on a listing (it blocks the calendar and syncs to connected channels). Only channelId 2000 (direct, the default), 2002 (homeaway) or 2020 (partner) are accepted. To price it correctly, call hostaway_calculate_price first and pass its total as totalPrice.

  • hostaway_update_reservation

    Change fields on an existing reservation — guest details and counts, dates, check-in/out hours, door code, host note or comment. Send only the fields to change. The listing cannot be changed, and this tool never cancels or reprices a booking. Date changes on channel bookings may

  • hostaway_update_calendar

    Change availability and/or pricing for a date range on one listing, pushed to every connected channel: block (isAvailable=false) or open days, set the nightly price, min/max stay, closed-to-arrival/departure, or a note. For multi-unit listings set desiredUnitsToSell instead of is

  • hostaway_send_message

    Send a message to the guest in a conversation — it is delivered immediately and cannot be recalled. Delivered by email by default, or via the booking channel, SMS or WhatsApp. Attachments are not supported. Rate-limited by Hostaway to 30 messages per minute. Hostaway: POST /v1/co

  • hostaway_create_task

    Create an operational task — e.g. a cleaning after a checkout or a maintenance job — optionally tied to a listing and reservation, assigned to a user, with a time window, category and cost. Hostaway: POST /v1/tasks.

  • hostaway_update_task

    Update a task — change its status (e.g. completed), reassign it, move its window, or add a resolution note. Send only the fields to change. Hostaway: PUT /v1/tasks/{taskId}.

Common questions

Is Hostaway MCP by usefulapi safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.35.3) reached the registry yesterday.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

Hostaway MCP by usefulapi

Use Hostaway from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — read listings, reservations, calendars, conversations, reviews and owner statements, and create reservations, update calendars, message guests and manage tasks. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own Hostaway credentials.

Live endpoint: https://hostaway.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/hostaway

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://hostaway.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http hostaway https://hostaway.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{

"mcpServers": { "hostaway": { "url": "https://hostaway.usefulapi.io/mcp" } } }

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Hostaway credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/hostaway/

On first connect you'll provide your Hostaway account ID and API key (Settings → Hostaway API). They're validated, stored per-user, and scoped to you — no keys in config files.
