Day-by-day availability and pricing for one listing over a date range: status (available, blocked, reserved, pending), nightly price, min/max stay, closed-to-arrival/departure and notes. Set includeResources to see the reservations occupying each day. Hostaway: GET /v1/listings/{listingId}/calendar.

Create a reservation
Create a new reservation on a listing (it blocks the calendar and syncs to connected channels). Only channelId 2000 (direct, the default), 2002 (homeaway) or 2020 (partner) are accepted. To price it correctly, call hostaway_calculate_price first and pass its total as totalPrice. Overbooking protection is always left on. Hostaway: POST /v1/reservations.
hostaway_update_reservationwrite
Update a reservation
Change fields on an existing reservation — guest details and counts, dates, check-in/out hours, door code, host note or comment. Send only the fields to change. The listing cannot be changed, and this tool never cancels or reprices a booking. Date changes on channel bookings may be overwritten by the channel. Hostaway: PUT /v1/reservations/{reservationId}.
hostaway_update_calendarwrite
Update listing calendar
Change availability and/or pricing for a date range on one listing, pushed to every connected channel: block (isAvailable=false) or open days, set the nightly price, min/max stay, closed-to-arrival/departure, or a note. For multi-unit listings set desiredUnitsToSell instead of isAvailable (0 blocks). Hostaway: PUT /v1/listings/{listingId}/calendar.
hostaway_send_messagewrite
Send a guest message
Send a message to the guest in a conversation — it is delivered immediately and cannot be recalled. Delivered by email by default, or via the booking channel, SMS or WhatsApp. Attachments are not supported. Rate-limited by Hostaway to 30 messages per minute. Hostaway: POST /v1/conversations/{conversationId}/messages.

hostaway_update_taskwrite
Update a task
Update a task — change its status (e.g. completed), reassign it, move its window, or add a resolution note. Send only the fields to change. Hostaway: PUT /v1/tasks/{taskId}.
