Basics

Salisea gets you from sign-up to your first managed booking in a few minutes. This guide walks through the essentials.

1. Create a property

Every listing in Salisea belongs to a property. Add yours with its address, photos, and the units guests can book.

2. Bring inquiries and occupied dates into Salisea

Forward booking inquiries that arrive in your existing email to the property’s Salisea inbox. For Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp, phone, walk-in, and returning guests, choose Add inquiry or create the agreed booking directly. These are booking sources, not direct integrations.

If a booking platform offers iCal, import its calendar and export the Salisea availability feed back to the same unit. See iCal feeds for the full walkthrough.

3. Take a booking

Review a forwarded or manually added inquiry, check availability, and confirm the booking when the guest agrees. The booking then blocks its dates in Salisea; connected iCal calendars collect those occupied dates on their own refresh schedule.
