Stayntouch, an innovator in mobile technology and Property Management Systems (PMS) for hotels and lodging, announced the deployment of its Stayntouch Cloud PMS and Stayntouch Guest Mobility solutions at Getaway, a new lodging concept consisting of unique “Tiny Houses” set in nature outside Boston and New York.

“Unlike many hotels where the room itself often takes a backseat to the guest’s travel intent, a Getaway stay itself is the core purpose of our guest’s trip.  Our mission is to allow guests to easily disconnect from their busy lives and escape to a well-designed cabin in a natural environment,” said Kai Gilsey, Director of Guest Experience at Getaway. “Given the many measures we take to minimize interruptions during each guest’s stay, we need a unique mix of software solutions.  Our booking and check-in processes are very unique, so we chose Stayntouch as the hub of our system primarily because of its interoperability with 3rd party software through APIs.”   

Stayntouch offers hotels the opportunity to integrate multiple cloud-solutions on one platform:

• Stayntouch Cloud PMS: Next generation Hotel PMS, fully cloud, fits on every device, optimizes hotel operations from front desk, to groups, to housekeeping to revenue management. Simple monthly pricing that includes training, integrations and configuration.
  
• Stayntouch Guest Mobility:  Enables guest pre-engagement and guest services via mobile web.  Guest-enabled mobile check-in & out via smart phone or desktop.  Private labeled, PMS-integrated mobile check-in &/or checkout.  Bill review, preference collection, upsell opportunities, and remote key fulfillment.  Promote and monetize late checkouts.

“Working with the team at Getaway has been terrific,” said Jos Schaap, CEO-Founder of Stayntouch, “Their innovations and are singular in our industry and they reflect a larger trend of hoteliers re-thinking the business to better align with changing guest expectations about lodging. I predict they Getaway’s commitment to guest experience and technological innovation will make them trendsetter’s in the near future.”

About Getaway:

Getaway builds tiny houses, places them on beautiful rural land and rents them out by the night to stressed out folks looking to disconnect and recharge. Starting at $99 a night, we aim to be your instant cabin in the woods.

Getaway is the anti-vacation. Vacations are too costly, too complex and too distant. A Getaway is near enough (within 2 hours) to escape in an instant, affordable (as low as $99 per night) and designed for you to do nothing at all— an invitation to turn off your phone, look at the stars, sit by the campfire and connect with the people you care about.

Whenever you need to get away – be it for a writer’s retreat, a bonding weekend with friends, a romantic anniversary, a meditative day away from the office, or a digital detox session – you can head over to www.getaway.house and book a tiny house in the woods. All you have to think about is which nights you want to book and we have every other detail covered (like s’mores!). As your Getaway gets closer, we send you the location of your Getaway house. On your Getaway day, you drive an hour or two outside the city, walk up to your own personal tiny house, enter your private access code, and exit your daily grind.

Getaway launched in the Boston area in July 2015 and the New York area in June 2016.
In 2017, Getaway aims to go deeper and broader: we are building more houses in the New York and Boston areas so that more people can “Getaway in an instant” and we are expanding to more stressed-out cities across America.
