Yes, you can record multiple payments for each reservation. After you login to manage your site, click "manage reservations", then click a reservation to see a new page. Scroll down and you will see the reservation details where you can record the payments. If you have received the final payment and want to send the check-in instructions to the guest, just select the check box.
Can I require a minimum length of stay?
You can have different minimum nightly stays for each rate period. Login and select a property, then select rates.
Can I set different rates for different nights of the week?
Yes, you could charge $100 per night for a specific rate period and charge $150 a night for Friday and Saturday nights. To do so, login and select a property, then select rates. For each rate period you will need to still enter the default nightly rate (lowest nightly rate during this rate period) and then enter any special nightly rates for each night with the special rate. You can leave the other night fields blank and they will default to the default nightly rate you entered above.
Can I notify my housekeeping service when I confirm
a reservation?
Yes! When you confirm a reservation, enter
your housekeeping service's e-mail address in the "third-party
notification" field. They'll receive the check-in and check-out
times.
Can I set different Terms & Conditions for each property?
Yes, you can set terms & conditions for each property. Guests must agree to your terms when they make a reservation. Login and select a property, then select terms & conditions. This is optional and can be left blank. If you do enter the terms & conditions, there will be a check box added to the reservation page saying "I have read and understand the terms & conditions" with a link to the text you enter that the guest can read.

How do I customize a template with my own photo?

Does My Vacation Rental Site support Search Engine
Optimization? How will people find my Web site?
My VR Site does support search engine optimization.
When you log in, click "SEO" in the navigation. You'll
be able to modify the page titles on your Web site and the hidden "meta
tags" that describe your site to the search engines. We
also submit your Web site to Google, Yahoo! and Bing. Finally,
each property on your Web site also shows up on the Global
Vacation Rental Listings Web site. Visitors to that site
can make reservations and you can use My VR Site to accept reservations
and payments.
Can I use My Vacation Rental Site to manage reservations
I take over the phone or in person?
Yes. Just login to your account and click "Manage
All Reservations" at the top of your screen. Then click "Add
Reservation" and enter your guest's information.
Can I add other pages to my Web site?
If you have a multi-property Web site,
you can add a Testimonials page, a Links page and two other
pages, which can be whatever you like. Many of our customers
use those page to present their terms of service, more information
about the area around their rentals and to promote their property
management businesses.
