Tedee for small portfolios (1–5 listings)

Hosts with 1–5 short-term rental listings looking for software that scales with them, not against them.

Our verdict for small portfolios (1–5 listings)

Great fit

If you run 1–5 EU short-term rentals on euro-profile cylinders, Tedee gives you keyless guest access without ripping out your doors.

Why it fits you

  • Reversible retrofit install works on leased properties
  • Native Guesty, Hostify, and Smoobu sync covers most small-host PMS choices
  • One-time hardware cost beats per-listing SaaS lock fees at small scale

What might bite you

  • You'll still need to budget separately for keypad and bridge accessories

Best-for-you alternatives at this size

  • Aqara Great fit

    If you run 1–10 doors and already live inside Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa, or SmartThings, Aqara is one of the cheapest credible ways to add guest-code locks and sensors.

    From $169.99 • No free trial · Affordable, ecosystem-friendly smart locks for hands-on small-portfolio hosts

  • August Home Great fit

    If you manage 1-5 units and can't modify the door exterior, August is the cleanest retrofit path with automatic Airbnb code generation built in.

    From $149.99 • No free trial · The right smart lock when you can't modify the door exterior

  • Igloohome Great fit

    No monthly fees and simple Airbnb sync make igloohome ideal for hosts with 1–5 properties, especially remote ones.
