Paid ads, without becoming an ad agency
Pick a property, set a small daily budget, and Haven writes and runs the whole Google Search campaign — copy, keywords and targeting generated from your real listing and pointed at your own direct-booking site. You review every ad before a cent is spent.

Google Ads was built for marketers. You run rentals.
Running your own search ads means keyword research, ad accounts, billing setup, and weeks of tuning — or paying an agency a retainer to do it for a single property. Most hosts skip it entirely and leave the highest-intent travelers to the OTAs bidding on their own listing.
The OTAs outbid you for your own guests
Travelers searching for stays in your town see Airbnb and Vrbo ads first — and book your place with a service fee stacked on top.
Generic ad tools don’t know your property
An ads platform starts from a blank text box. It hasn’t read your listing, seen your photos, or checked which weeks you need to fill.
Agencies don’t scale down to one property
Retainers and setup fees are priced for portfolios. For a single listing, the management cost eats the ad budget.
How it works
Pick what to promote
Choose one property or one group site from Marketing → Ads. Give it a goal if you have one — “fill Thanksgiving week” — and Haven researches it first.
Haven writes the ad
Headlines, descriptions, keywords, image and location targeting are generated from your actual listing — photos, amenities, location and brand. Nothing generic.
Review before it spends
Google Search ads arrive as an editable draft: change the copy, the keywords, the image, the dates, the target locations. Nothing runs until you approve it.
Set the budget and launch
Each ad has its own daily budget you control. Fund a balance once; it draws down as ads run. Pause anytime and spend stops immediately.
Watch it land on your site
Ad traffic shows up in your site analytics by channel — how many visitors, how far through the funnel, and which bookings they produced.
Key capabilities
Built for
Hosts leaving search to the OTAs
Your direct site converts, but nobody paid to put it in front of the travelers searching for your town this week.
Drive-to markets
Cabins, lake houses and beach rentals whose guests come from two or three nearby metros — the clearest win for location-targeted budget.
Hosts with open weeks to fill
Give the ad a goal — a specific gap, a shoulder season — and Haven writes the campaign around it.
Because it’s one platform
A standalone ads tool starts from a blank text box. One Click Ads starts from everything Haven already knows about your property.
The ad is written from your listing
Photos, amenities, location and brand come straight from the same listing data that powers your booking site — the ad can’t drift from the product.

Every ad points at your own Haven booking site — direct rates, no guest fees, loyalty points — not a thin landing page.
How direct booking winsPaid visitors become your audience
Ad traffic flows into the same analytics and guest CRM as everything else — emails captured from ad visits feed your win-back campaigns.

vs. DIY Google Ads
Self-serve means keyword research, ad accounts, billing setup and ongoing tuning. Haven generates the campaign from your listing and manages it — you review and set the budget.
vs. hiring an agency
Agencies charge retainers that rarely make sense for a handful of properties. One Click Ads has no monthly fee. You pay for the media the ads spend, plus 5% of that spend.
vs. relying on the OTAs
OTA visibility rents a guest for one stay, with fees on both sides. Ads to your own site win the guest, the email and the repeat booking.
