Turn creator stays into a real marketing channel

    STAYA helps hospitality teams organize creator partnerships from the first application to the final deliverables. Create structured opportunities for your properties, review creators in one place, clarify expectations upfront, and keep every stay tied to the right content, dates, and usage rights.

    The DIY workflow

    Creator marketing works. Managing it manually doesn't.

    Most teams run partnerships through DMs, spreadsheets, and folders. It breaks fast.

    No clear record of the deal

    Comped stays, deliverables, and usage rights live across DMs and inboxes.

    Content gets scattered

    Photos, videos, and approvals end up buried across drives and threads.

    Scaling gets messy fast

    What works for two stays breaks across many properties and partners.

    STAYA gives hospitality teams one structured system for offers, applications, deliverables, and content.

    How it works

    From creator opportunity to delivered content.

    A clear process from setup through final assets, tied to the right property and stay.

    Not just a place to find influencers

    Instagram can help you discover creators. STAYA helps you manage the partnership.

    Finding creators is usually not the hardest part. A team member can search Instagram, send a few DMs, or respond to people who are already reaching out.

    The real friction starts after that.

    Who applied? Which property are they interested in? What dates work? What content are they proposing? What deliverables were promised? Can the property use the content later? Where are the messages, files, and final assets?

    STAYA gives each property a structured creator opportunity page so creators can apply directly and your team can manage the collaboration with more clarity from the beginning.
