Welcome to RoomB.io 👋 ​
RoomB.io is a platform that connects travelers directly with trusted, professionally managed rentals - no middlemen, no hidden fees, and no frustrating booking experiences.
Our motto? Booking a place in the UAE should feel as easy as messaging a friend. That's exactly what we're building.
RoomB.io currently features listings across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah - with more locations coming soon!
Curated and Vetted
Every listing on RoomB.io is hand-reviewed for quality, and all hosts are personally vetted. Hosting is by invitation only - every host must go through our approval process before listing a property.
We're not a real estate broker, and we don't handle guest payments or charge commissions. We simply make it easy to find the right property and connect you directly with the host.
Our Mission Statement ​
Stated plainly, our mission statement is that booking a place in the UAE should feel as easy as messaging a friend.
Guiding us are our three simple principles:
- Transparency - Full host contact details, always visible
- Truly Free - No commissions or service fees for travelers
- Simplicity - A platform that stays out of your way
Transparency from the Start ​
We believe in honesty. Most booking platforms hide the host's phone number or email until after you've booked - locking you in before you can ask important questions or negotiate better terms.
RoomB.io does things differently.
You get full access to the host's contact details right from the start.
No paywall. No tricks. Just clear, open communication.
Other platforms delay transparency because it threatens their profits. We embrace it because it builds trust.
Free to Use, Forever ​
RoomB.io doesn't charge travelers anything.
No commissions, no service fees, no surprises.
Instead of taking a cut from guests, we charge hosts a simple flat monthly subscription to list and manage their properties.
In real terms, that means listings aren't burdened with the 17%+ in layered service fees and commissions that other platforms quietly take.
And because we don't charge hosts anything extra, they can afford to offer lower prices to guests - making everyone happier.
No service fees or commissions. Just simple, honest pricing.
Simplicity ​
We built RoomB.io with one clear goal: help you find and book a great rental without the clutter, confusion, or noise.
Other platforms bombard you with popups, upsells, and fluff. We strip that all away.
RoomB.io focuses on what matters:
- Clean, uncluttered interface
- No distractions or dark patterns
- Host details available instantly
Simplicity doesn't mean doing less - it means doing just the things that matter, really well.
Why We Built RoomB.io ​
We've been on both sides of the rental experience - as guests trying to book a place, and as developers frustrated by platforms that seemed to get in the way more than they helped.
So we built something we wished existed: A clean, honest rental platform that respects your time and intelligence.
RoomB.io is a product of that frustration - and a belief that good software should be useful, not overwhelming.
About the Founders
RoomB.io was founded by long-time developers and travelers frustrated by overpriced platforms and opaque booking systems.
We're based in Dubai and building RoomB.io to serve travelers and hosts better, with transparency and simplicity at the core.
What's Next ​
RoomB.io is just getting started, and we're excited about what's ahead. There's still so much we can do to make finding and booking your ideal vacation rental even simpler - and more affordable for you, the guest.
We're working on new features to help ensure that experience stays consistent, transparent, and easy.
But one thing won't change: RoomB.io will always remain transparent, free, and simple.
Thanks for being part of the journey - and stay tuned!
