About five minutes of setup

A whole Airflow website — and every page tells you how it was made.

The Demo Airflow Property is a real Airflow website built with the standard tools. It is not pretending to be a business: each page explains what you are looking at, which control produced it, and how long that took. Open it and read it.

Where one property record ends up.

Four public addresses, one record behind all of them, nothing typed twice.

Why the booking button goes to a sandbox. The demo site is built on the real platform — a real listing, in a real account, published through the real website builder. There is simply no house behind it. So it is fenced: kept off the Airflow Stay marketplace, with its booking button opening a sandboxed demo where you can walk the whole checkout without creating anything. Press everything.

And the address is not the ceiling. The demo sits on a free demo.airflowhost.com address because it is a demo. A real site sits on your own domain name — one you already own, or one you buy anywhere you like. You point it at Airflow, the certificate is issued and renewed for you, and nothing a guest sees mentions us: not the address bar, not the booking page, not the confirmation email.

What those five minutes actually are.

Most hosts end up with a website in one place, a booking widget in another, a listing somewhere else and a guest inbox nobody owns. Airflow builds all of it from one record — and this is the whole of the setup.

  1. 1

    The property, once

    Name, location, bedrooms, capacity, nightly rate, minimum stay. That single record feeds the booking page, the website, the calendar, the invoices and the guest portal. Change the rate once and it changes everywhere.

  2. 2

    The photos, tagged

    Upload, tag by room or theme, pick a main image. They are resized and served from the edge, so the site stays fast on a phone on a holiday connection — which is where most guests will open it.

  3. 3

    The pages, one click each

    Gallery, about, contact and reviews are one-click page types. Custom pages you write yourself, with headings, images and links. Every page on the demo is one of these.

  4. 4

    The look, without CSS

    Accent colour, typeface pairing, corner radius, hero style, navigation style, gallery layout. Save a design before you experiment. If you do write CSS there is a box for it; if you do not, you never see any.

  5. 5

    Live, on your own name

    Publish and you get a free address immediately. Point a domain you already own at it whenever you are ready — certificates and renewals are handled.

What you actually get.

Your own domain name

Point a domain you already own, or buy one anywhere and point that. Start free on yourname.airflowhost.com and move across later without rebuilding. Certificates and renewals are handled.

Direct bookings and payments

Availability calendar, rates, deposits and balances, card payment at checkout. The booking becomes a record, not an email.

Reviews that arrive on their own

Reviews are collected and shown on the site without anyone retyping them into a page.

Findable

Per-page titles and descriptions, structured data for search engines, and a sitemap that updates itself as pages change.

Fast on a phone

Served from the edge and sized for the device asking. Guests browse on phones, often on holiday connections.

Editable without a developer

Pages, photos and copy change from your Airflow portal. No deploy, no ticket, no agency invoice.

And here it is running a real business.

Wimbi House is a working guest house in Shela, on Lamu, off the Kenyan coast. The same builder as the demo, on its own custom domain, taking real bookings from real guests. Please don't test a booking on this one — use the demo.

wimbihouse.com

Eight pages on a domain they own, a booking page on a subdomain of that same domain, a listing on the Airflow Stay marketplace, and a guest portal at /guest — all reading from one record, none of it mentioning Airflow anywhere a guest would look. This is the demo site, three years in, with a real business on top of it.

It is the proof that the custom-domain path works end to end: DNS, certificates, SEO, and a checkout that never leaves the brand the guest chose.
