Calendarista
Self-hosted booking for WordPress, mobile app included
Run your bookings from your phone. Four plugins on your own WordPress site: appointments (Solo), a 12-mode booking engine (Classic), restaurant reservations (Tables) and campground/RV parks on an interactive map (Campground). One mobile app manages them all. Flat yearly license.
Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Alessandro, a solo developer. Calendarista comes from a simple frustration: booking platforms that charge monthly fees plus a cut of every reservation, while holding your customer list in their cloud.
Calendarista goes the other way — it runs on YOUR WordPress site. Payments go straight to your own Stripe/PayPal/Square account, the guest list lives in your own database, and the license is one flat yearly price. Zero commission, no per-booking fees. And if the license ever expires, your booking system keeps working.
It's four plugins, each built for a real industry instead of a generic form:
🗓️ Solo — appointments for coaches, salons, clinics, photographers. Comes with an AI receptionist, no-show risk scoring and natural-language booking search (no API keys to manage).
🧩 Classic — a 12-mode booking engine: hotels & rentals, car hire, tours, airport transfers with Google-Maps route pricing, classes, meeting rooms. WooCommerce checkout, two-way Google Calendar sync, SMS reminders.
🍽️ Tables — restaurant reservations with a diary a host can actually run a service from: turn times, pacing, waitlists with real held offers, deposits and card holds against no-shows. No per-cover fees, ever.
🏕️ Campground — guests pick their exact pitch on an interactive map of your park. Seasonal rates, a real front desk with check-in/out, and EU compliance built in (tourist tax, police registration, ISTAT, SdI invoices, Croatia's eVisitor).
All four include a free iOS/Android companion app (pair by QR code), ship with 6–7 fully translated languages, and every one has a complete live demo — front-end AND admin back-end — no signup needed.
👩💻 A special note for the freelancers and agencies here: Calendarista was built with client work in mind. Agency licenses cover up to 25 sites with per-site key management from one portal, Classic includes a white-label mode, and a booking site you hand over keeps working without monthly SaaS bills eating your client's margin. If you build for restaurants, hotels, campgrounds or service businesses, I'd genuinely love your take on what would make it easier to ship for clients.
Everything carries a 14-day money-back guarantee. I'm here all day and I answer my own support — ask me anything! 🙏
