Homey is a WordPress theme specialized in creating booking and property rental platforms, developed by Favethemes, the same studio responsible for Houzez. It is designed for real estate agencies, vacation rental hosts, property managers, and entrepreneurs who want to launch their own Airbnb, Booking.com, or Vrbo-style site without relying on third-party platforms.
The theme turns a conventional WordPress site into a complete booking management system. Hosts can register from the front-end, publish their properties, manage availability calendars, respond to messages, and request payments. Guests, on the other hand, can search for properties using an advanced search engine with filters for location, price range, check-in and check-out dates, number of people, and amenities, and then book instantly or via a reservation request.
Homey offers five flexible booking modes that adapt to different business models: hourly, nightly, weekly, monthly, and long-term. The pricing system allows you to configure custom rates per period, as well as additional charges such as cleaning, security deposit, custom taxes, service fees, and extra guest costs. It also includes multi-currency support to serve a global audience.
Payment management integrates with WooCommerce, PayPal, and Stripe, allowing you to process transactions securely and generate automatic invoices. The theme also includes a front-end dashboard for both hosts and guests, where each can manage their listings, bookings, earnings, and favorites without needing to access the WordPress backend.
Among its standout features are iCal calendar synchronization, email notifications, internal messaging system, two-way reviews between hosts and guests, virtual tours, experience videos, and a custom fields builder. Integration with Google Maps allows you to display the location of each property interactively.
The theme is fully responsive and compatible with major page builders like Elementor and WPBakery, making visual customization easy without programming knowledge. It is also compatible with WPML and Polylang to create multilingual sites. With multiple predefined demos and a robust options panel, Homey offers a complete and scalable solution for those looking to monetize rental properties with a professional and modern user experience.
