CoHostBnB vs Lodgify: two different jobs, with prices read on 3 November 2026
This page is written by CoHostBnB, so it is not neutral. Every Lodgify detail below comes from Lodgify's own public pricing page, read on 2026-11-03; anything that page did not state is marked as not published. Our own prices are those on our pricing page.
The short version
Lodgify is a vacation-rental management system built around a channel manager, a no-code booking website and direct-booking tools. CoHostBnB is an operations layer: guest-message drafts you approve, housekeeping and maintenance tasks, team handovers, and an optional managed co-hosting service. If your main problem is getting direct bookings on your own website, Lodgify's product is aimed at that. If your main problem is the daily messaging and turnover work, ours is. Many hosts need the first before the second, and the two are not mutually exclusive.
What Lodgify publishes
Lodgify's pricing page lists four plans and says pricing varies with the number of properties you manage. The page offers monthly billing, yearly billing shown as 20 percent off, and a bi-yearly option shown as 25 percent off. For the default view it shows a crossed-out list figure next to a lower figure with a "Save 20%" label:
| Lodgify plan | Shown crossed out | Shown price per month | What the page says it adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | $18 | $14 | Booking-site sync; 0% booking fee; free trial |
| Starter | $33 | $26 | Everything in Basic plus a no-code website builder, booking widget, custom rates and payments, onboarding with a Lodgify expert; free trial |
| Professional | $58 | $47 | Everything in Starter plus listing on Google and message automation; Dynamic Pricing included |
| Ultimate | $85 | $68 | Everything in Professional plus advanced tools and team visibility; Dynamic Pricing included |
Other published facts on that page: no booking fee on any plan, a free trial on Basic and Starter, a free domain on yearly Starter-and-above plans, cancellation at any time with access kept to the end of an annual period, and a note that the plan with Dynamic Pricing free for three months is only available for two properties or fewer. Lodgify's navigation also lists an "AI Co-Host" feature; the pricing page does not give a separate price for it, so we publish none.
What CoHostBnB charges
| CoHostBnB option | Monthly basis |
|---|---|
| Free | $0 for 1 listing; 30 AI replies a month; draft-only, you approve each reply |
| Host | $15 for the first listing, then $9 (listings 2-5), $7 (6-20), $5 (21-50) per listing; no revenue share |
| Autopilot | $25 for the first listing, then $16 (listings 2-5), $13 (6-20), $10 (21-50) per listing; adds auto-send, operations and owner statements |
What a month costs at a few sizes
Arithmetic from the two catalogs above, our side only, since Lodgify's price depends on its property selector:
- 1 property: Host $15, Autopilot $25.
- 3 properties: Host $15 + 2 x $9 = $33; Autopilot $25 + 2 x $16 = $57.
- 5 properties: Host $15 + 4 x $9 = $51; Autopilot $25 + 4 x $16 = $89.
- 10 properties: Host $15 + 4 x $9 + 5 x $7 = $86; Autopilot $25 + 4 x $16 + 5 x $13 = $154.
To compare with Lodgify at your own size, set the property selector on Lodgify's page to your number and note which plan you need. A Basic-versus-Host comparison is not like for like: Basic is a channel-sync plan, Host drafts guest replies.
Where we are weaker
CoHostBnB does not have Lodgify's website builder, booking widget or payment tools, and it does not publish a channel manager. Calendar sync on our side uses iCal, which gives a read-only bookings list on the Free plan; iCal does not sync listing content, prices or messages, and guest messaging needs a connected property-management system. If you want one product to own your calendar and direct bookings, Lodgify is the closer fit; if you already have one and want the messaging and turnover work handled, that is our scope.
How to decide
Write down the three tasks that cost you the most time each week. If they are building a website and taking direct payments, start with Lodgify's trial. If they are replying to guests at night, coordinating cleaners and keeping handovers consistent across a team, start with our Free plan on one listing and see whether the drafts match your voice before you pay anything. Re-check both pricing pages before you buy: vendors change plans, and this page records only what was published on the date shown.
