Hola Stay is the app for owners and managers of tourist rentals on the Spanish coast (Costa Blanca, Costa Cálida). All your guest-registration duties and documents in one tool. FEATURES: • Guest check-in without an account — the guest fills in their details via a QR code and reservation number. • SES Hospedajes report (Guardia Civil) — automatic generation of the "Parte de viajeros" and "Reserva de hospedaje" XML. • ID document scanning (passport/DNI/NIE) — guest data fills in automatically. • Registration card, check-in and check-out, inventory and guest signature — ready-made PDFs. • Invoices and settlements — clear, in Polish and Spanish. • Offline assistant — works without internet. HOW IT WORKS: Data entered once (reservation, property) automatically fills the registration card, check-in, documents and the SES report. SECURITY: Guest documents are encrypted on the device (AES-256). Registration data is retained in line with Spanish legal requirements.
