A smooth arrival starts with one clear message

For a homestay or Airbnb, the arrival is the moment guests are most anxious. They are tired, often in an unfamiliar town, and the map pin may land on the wrong lane. A single clear message with the address, a landmark, a map link, the check-in time and how to get in prevents most of the late-night calls and bad first impressions. This generator builds two versions from the same details: a short WhatsApp message and a detailed page you can print or send as a PDF.

What to include

  • Address and landmark: in hill towns, villages and old city lanes, a landmark such as “blue gate opposite the post office” is often more useful than the postal address.
  • Map link: drop the pin at your actual gate, not the locality, then copy the share link.
  • Getting in: who meets the guest, or where the key or lockbox is and the code. For late arrivals, say what happens after a certain time.
  • Wi-Fi, parking and contacts: the host's number, and an emergency number. 112 is India's national emergency number; add a local hospital or police station number if you like.

When and how to send it

  1. Send the WhatsApp message one or two days before arrival, and ask for the expected arrival time.
  2. Send the detailed page as a PDF for families, foreign guests and late arrivals.
  3. On the morning of arrival, send a short reminder with the map link again.

Put the Wi-Fi details on a card in the room too; the Wi-Fi QR code generator makes one guests can scan. For the rest of the stay, including checkout and review requests, the WhatsApp message templates save time.

Self check-in safety tips

  • Share lockbox codes only with confirmed guests and change them after every few stays.
  • Keep a spare key with a trusted neighbour or caretaker.
  • Collect guest ID as required by your local authorities, even when check-in is contactless.
  • Test the route yourself with the map link you send, at night as well as by day.

Frequently asked questions

When should I send check-in instructions to guests?

One or two days before arrival works best, with a short reminder on the morning of check-in. Sending too early means guests may not find the message when they need it.

Is it safe to send lockbox codes on WhatsApp?

Send codes only to confirmed guests in a private chat, never in a public listing, and change the code regularly. Keep a backup key with someone you trust.

What emergency number should I give guests in India?

112 is the national emergency number in India. You can also add your own number, a caretaker, and the nearest hospital or police station.
