Sacconi iCal Sync is the ultimate tool for vacation rental owners and agencies who need a reliable, fast, and beautiful way to manage availability.
Unlike standard booking calendars, our plugin is built on a custom SQL engine that ensures maximum performance even with hundreds of properties.
Native WordPress Integration
No more manual configuration of date formats or week starts. Sacconi iCal Sync automatically inherits your WordPress general settings. If your site starts the week on Sunday or uses dots instead of slashes for dates, the calendar adapts instantly.
The Visual Advantage
We believe that check-in and check-out days should be clear. That's why even our FREE version includes our signature
diagonal half-day display, allowing your guests to see exactly when a property becomes available.
The Pro Power: iCal Intersection
Do you manage a villa that can be rented as a whole or as separate rooms? Our Pro version features a unique
Intersection Logic. Link up to 15 different iCal feeds: a date will be marked as "occupied" only when ALL linked calendars are booked. No more manual merging or overbooking risks!
