StayHost TV is a Guest-Ready TV Experience for Short-Term Rental Hosts
StayHost TV replaces the cluttered smart-TV setup with a cleaner, more intentional guest experience for short-term rentals.
Guests can easily find what they need, and hosts get a more custom in-room TV experience without adding another task between stays.
Built for any short-term rental host — from a single property to a growing portfolio — and especially helpful for properties with frequent guest turnover.
Limited to the first 25 properties.
What guests see when they turn on the TV.
Why the TV Becomes a Host Problem Between Stays
Guests leave streaming accounts logged in. Remotes and inputs confuse people. One property feels different from the next. And small TV issues turn into support messages hosts have to answer.
- Guest streaming accounts stay logged in.
- Remotes get confusing.
- And every checkout requires another reset.
StayHost TV is being built to make the guest TV experience cleaner for guests and easier for hosts to keep consistent across stays.
Hosts deal with this every day:
Typical TV Setup
- Guest logins remain active
- Manual resets between stays
- Inconsistent in-room experience
- Host support burden increases
StayHost TV Approach
- Clear guest experience without extra host effort
- Designed to keep the TV experience consistent across stays
- Branded, calm welcome experience for guests
- Less friction for hosts between stays

Why StayHost TV Exists
Short-term rentals have evolved. Guest expectations have evolved. The TV experience hasn’t. StayHost TV is being built to bring clarity and consistency to guest streaming without adding complexity to host operations.
StayHost TV is an Android TV guest experience designed specifically for short-term rental properties. It gives hosts a more intentional starting point for in-room entertainment in high-turnover environments, with a cleaner welcome screen, simpler guest navigation, and a more consistent TV experience across stays.
For hosts, that means less confusion around the in-room TV experience. For guests, it means a setup that feels calmer, easier to use, and better aligned with the stay.
