What Guests Want to Know – The Circle Stays Guide
When it comes to booking a stay on The Circle Stays, one thing is crystal clear — location is everything for our guests.
But here’s what we’ve learned:
- Guests want to know all about the area so they can decide quickly and plan their trip.
- Hosts often want to maintain privacy until a booking is confirmed — or sometimes they’re happy to overshare from the start.
So, how do you strike the perfect balance? We’ve created this Circle Stays Location & Info Checklist so guests feel confident and excited — while hosts stay comfortable and secure.
Tips for Sharing the Right Info
✅ Start Early – Provide recommendations as soon as a booking is confirmed so guests can plan better. The earlier they feel informed, the more relaxed they’ll be before arriving.
✅ Build Your Digital Guidebook – Use your host dashboard to create a Circle Stays Guidebook. It’s a reusable, customizable list of your top local tips that you can share with all guests.
✅ Make It Personal – Don’t just give touristy suggestions. Share the hidden gems you personally love — your go-to chai stall, the quiet sunset spot on the beach, the tailor who makes perfect traditional outfits, or the bookshop café you can’t stop visiting.
✅ Reduce Pre-Arrival Anxiety – As a trip approaches, guests worry about things like:
- Where exactly is the property?
- How do I get there from the airport/train station?
- How will I receive the keys?
- What’s the best way to move around locally?
Answer these before they need to ask. You’ll build trust instantly and increase the chances of a glowing review.

💡 Circle Stays Pro Tip for Hosts: Always share location-related details after confirmation but before arrival. Include travel directions, check-in steps, and your personal list of nearby must-visits. Guests love when their trip feels curated — and that love shows up in reviews.
