A chalet booking system where the deposit secures the date
An occupancy calendar showing every booked night, Thursday, Friday and season pricing, guests who book from your page and pay a deposit, and a security deposit settled after the unit is inspected.
Coming soon — We are building this business's own tools now, and we do not want to hand you a dashboard that does not fit. Book a demo and we will set it up with you.
A chalet and rest house booking system for owners and managers, from a single unit to several. Sell your nights from one calendar, collect the deposit, the balance and the security deposit, and get each unit ready between guests.
Pick your business
Chalet / Rest House
Guests book their nights on your page and pay the deposit, get the door code in their portal, and at check-out you inspect the unit and settle the security deposit, with cleaning done before the next guest.
Why Govia
No night sold twice
Every booking holds each night it covers, from your page or your phone, so WhatsApp and phone bookings never collide.
The deposit secures the booking
The deposit is paid now and the balance falls due on arrival, and an unpaid hold does not block the night forever.
A security deposit everyone understands
Held at check-in and settled after the unit is inspected, on its own receipt, never mixed with the rent.
The unit is ready before the guest
A cleaning task after every check-out, and check-in waits for it unless a manager overrides.
Arabic first, in your trade’s words
The whole system runs in Arabic, right to left, and names things the way your business does: client, patient, member or tenant.
Automatic WhatsApp messages
Booking confirmations, appointment reminders and verification codes reach your customers on WhatsApp without anyone typing them.
Local payments
Payment links with mada, Apple Pay and cards, plus instalments with Tabby and Tamara through Tap.
Tax invoices with QR
ZATCA-ready tax invoices with QR (generation phase), issued with every payment.
On Riyadh time
Appointments, reports and reminders run on Riyadh time and the Saudi working week, wherever the system is opened.
An assistant that answers and prepares
Ask it about your numbers and screens and it answers, then prepares the action for you to approve with one tap.
Questions before you start
Do I need to install anything?
No. Govia runs in the browser on a phone, tablet or computer, and you start the moment your account exists, with no hardware and nothing to install.
Do you support mada and Apple Pay?
Yes. Once online payments are switched on in settings, guests pay the deposit from their invoice link with mada, Visa, Mastercard or Apple Pay, and Tabby and Tamara are available through the Tap gateway.
Can I bring my data over from a notebook or Excel?
Yes. Add your units and upcoming bookings straight from the screens, our support team helps you move your data when you start, and any list exports to Excel whenever you want.
Does it send WhatsApp reminders?
Yes, automatic WhatsApp messages: the booking confirmation, a reminder the day before arrival, and one notice if the dates change or the booking is cancelled, while the door code shows in the guest’s portal.
Are the invoices ZATCA-compliant?
Yes. Govia issues ZATCA-ready tax invoices with QR (generation phase), and the security deposit has its own receipt outside the invoice.
