RentalHelm

RentalHelm is the control room for your short-term rental — the smart-home tools, booking sync, and team coordination that vacation rental owners actually need, all in one calm, fast app. Whether you manage one villa or twenty, RentalHelm turns every booking into an automated sequence: the guest's lock code goes live the moment they check in, expires the moment they check out, and nobody has to remember a thing. — KEY FEATURES — • AUTOMATIC GUEST LOCK CODES Sync bookings from OwnerRez, Hostaway, Lodgix and other PMSs. Every reservation gets its own time-boxed door code, sent to the lock on check-in day and wiped on checkout day. No more forgetting. No more old codes floating around. • HOME ASSISTANT INTEGRATION Connect to your existing Home Assistant setup and control Z-Wave locks, thermostats, pool heaters, and pumps directly from your phone. Works with the hardware you already own. • POOL & SPA CONTROL Turn the heater on from the beach. Schedule the filter pump. Track temperature over time. Protect against freeze events automatically when overnight lows drop. • SMART ALERTS & AUTOMATIONS Get push notifications when a door is left unlocked, a lock battery drops below threshold, the pool temperature falls out of range, or a guest is about to arrive. Create custom automations that trigger on booking tags, time of day, or sensor readings. • GUEST & CLEANER ACCESS PROFILES Create reusable access profiles for housekeeping, maintenance, and family members — each with their own PIN and schedule. Switch profiles on a lock in one tap. • MULTI-PROPERTY, MULTI-USER Invite your property manager, co-host, or cleaning team. Grant access to specific properties or the whole portfolio. Per-property notification preferences mean everyone sees what they need and nothing they don't. • REAL-TIME DASHBOARD See who's checked in right now, who's arriving next, every lock's status and battery, and the state of every automation — at a glance. • SECURE BY DESIGN Biometric unlock with Face ID. Session-based authentication. No door codes ever exposed over email. — WHO IT'S FOR — Hosts running one or many vacation rentals who've outgrown manual lock-code juggling, spreadsheet-based cleaner schedules, and generic smart-home apps that weren't built for rental turnovers. — REQUIREMENTS — A Home Assistant instance with Z-Wave smart locks is recommended for full functionality. A RentalHelm account is required to use the app — sign up at rentalhelm.com. — SUPPORT — Questions, feature requests, or stuck on setup? Visit rentalhelm.com/support or email us directly from the app.
