Inside a Private Twimo Listing: What Guests See and How It Works

At Twimo, we believe privacy should feel effortless. When you share your home, it should feel personal, not public. That’s why every Twimo listing is designed to look and feel like a direct extension of you: clean, personal, and invitation-only.

Here’s a closer look at what your guests see when you share your private link, and how the process works from their side.

1. A Simple, Secure Entry

When someone receives your private Twimo link, they get a direct email invitation with the password you’ve created to access your page. Guests create a quick login with their email, then enter the password to view your listing.

Your home remains off public search engines and accessible only by invitation, reinforcing Twimo’s privacy-first design.

2. A Simple, Beautiful Listing

Once inside, guests land on a clean, intuitive page that reflects your home, not a crowded rental site.

Your photos, description, amenities, pricing, and availability appear in one seamless layout based entirely on the information you provide. There are no pop-ups, ads, or competing listings, just your home, presented clearly and securely.

Guests can browse photos, review your calendar, and check details at their own pace.The experience feels personal and direct because you invited them yourself.

3. Request-Only Booking

Guests can send a booking request directly through your listing.

Your calendar and pricing settings control what is visible, and any unavailable dates automatically stay hidden. Nothing is confirmed without your approval, keeping every request on your terms.

Once you’ve seen what the guest experience looks like, here’s how hosts can choose to share their listing with the right audience.

4. Three Ways to Share

Twimo gives you flexibility in how you share your home. Every option keeps your home private, but each offers a different level of reach, payment, and control.

All listing pages look the same to guests — clean, personal, and distraction-free. The only difference is how guests access them: by entering a private password or through an open, public link.

Private Booking:
Best for family and close friends. Keep your listing hidden, adjust rates, and maintain privacy. Always password-protected. Guests can pay through Twimo via Stripe or directly with Venmo, depending on your preference.

Private Link (Shared Publicly):
Great for alumni groups, neighbors, or community circles where you want a wider reach but still control who books. Share your link within trusted networks. Guests can request the password to view your page, allowing you to approve who gets access while maintaining full control.

Public Booking:
Best for maximum visibility when you’re ready to share more broadly with trusted networks. No password required. Payments are handled securely through Stripe on Twimo for a smooth, consistent experience.

5. Designed for Privacy and Simplicity

Twimo was built for second-home owners who value privacy and control. Unlike Airbnb or Vrbo, there are no service fees, no algorithms, and no unwanted exposure.

Your guests experience a seamless, exclusive environment that feels like a personal invitation, not a transaction. You enjoy peace of mind knowing every request begins with your approval and ends on your terms.
