Stop Paying OTA Commission on Every Booking. Get Software Built for Coorg Coffee Estates.
You run a beautiful coffee plantation homestay in Karnataka's Scotland. But OTAs take 20% of every weekend booking. Your rates are same on busy Bangalore weekends and empty weekdays. Guest details are in 5 different WhatsApp groups. There is a better way.
Did you know? Coorg receives 50+ lakh tourists annually, mostly from Bangalore on weekends. Coffee estate homestays paying OTA commissions lose Rs 75,000-2,50,000 per year. That is money that should stay in your pocket.
Kodagu Coffee-Estate Hosts: Are These Weekend Headaches Yours?
Most Coorg coffee estate owners face these challenges every weekend. You are not alone.
Losing 15-25% to OTAs
Coffee-estate weekend stays sold through OTAs give up 15-25% to commission. On a Rs 4000/night Madikeri or Virajpet estate room, that is Rs 600-1000 off every night.
Rs 75,000+ lost annually
Manual booking chaos
Using registers, WhatsApp groups, and Excel sheets. Double bookings happen on busy weekends. Guest details scattered across phones.
Hours wasted daily
Same rate every day
Charging identical rates on busy Bangalore weekends and empty weekdays. Missing premium pricing during long weekends and festivals.
Rs 50,000+ revenue lost
No repeat guest tracking
Cannot identify returning Bangalore guests, their coffee preferences, or send them monsoon offers. Every guest starts fresh.

Registering Your Kodagu Homestay Under Karnataka's 2025 Guidelines
The Department of Tourism, Government of Karnataka issued Revised Guidelines for Registration of Homestay Establishments in 2025, and online registration is compulsory for Coorg estates. Fees start at Rs 3,000 for the Silver category and Rs 5,000 for Gold, exclusive of GST, and the certificate is valid for five years. The rules cap a homestay at 12 beds with no more than three beds per room, ban dormitories and bunk beds, and bar rented, leased, or sub-let residences from registering at all. MyHomestay.ai keeps a digital guest register with IDs and stay dates, so the record-keeping the Deputy Director (Tourism) for Kodagu expects at inspection or renewal is always ready without paper files.
Coorg lives on the Bengaluru weekend drive-in market, which makes demand lumpy: Fridays and Saturdays and long weekends sell out while mid-week beds sit empty. Peak season runs October to February, after the monsoon, when the coffee blossoms and the harvest draws visitors to the estates; June to September brings heavy rain but a loyal green-season crowd chasing waterfalls and mist. OTAs skim 15-25% on every one of those premium weekend nights. Weekend surge pricing, direct booking links you can share with repeat Bengaluru guests, and separate tracking for estate walks and coffee tastings let you capture that peak demand and keep the commission yourself.
