What is Nomad Stays?

Nomad Stays is the world’s first booking platform built specifically for digital nomads and remote workers. Created by digital nomads, for digital nomads, it connects location-independent professionals with work-ready accommodations across 89 countries.

With over 5,700 verified properties, Nomad Stays stands out by independently verifying Wi-Fi speeds, requiring dedicated workspaces (laptop desks or nearby coworking), and offering transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Their audience is exactly the kind of long-stay, reliable guest that coliving spaces, hostels, and boutique hotels want to attract — guests who book weekly or monthly stays rather than one-night tourist stops.

If you run a coliving space, surf house, hostel, or any accommodation that caters to remote workers, listing on Nomad Stays is one of the best ways to reach this growing audience.

Why Sync Nomad Stays with Mangobeds?

When you list your property on multiple platforms — Mangobeds, Nomad Stays, Airbnb, Booking.com, Coliving.com — keeping availability in sync becomes critical. Without synchronization, you risk:

• Double bookings — A guest books on Nomad Stays while someone else books the same bed on Airbnb.
• Manual calendar updates — Spending time every day updating each platform by hand.
• Lost revenue — Blocking dates “just in case” instead of confidently selling every available night.

Mangobeds solves this with iCal sync. iCal is a universal calendar format supported by virtually every booking platform. When you connect your Nomad Stays iCal feed to Mangobeds, your availability updates automatically — no manual work, no double bookings.

How It Works

Mangobeds periodically fetches your Nomad Stays iCal calendar feed and blocks the corresponding dates on your Mangobeds calendar. Any booking made on Nomad Stays will automatically appear as unavailable in Mangobeds (and vice versa, if you export your Mangobeds calendar back to Nomad Stays).

This two-way sync ensures that no matter where a booking comes from, all your channels stay up to date.

Step-by-Step: Connect Nomad Stays to Mangobeds

1. Get Your Nomad Stays iCal Link

1. Log in to your Nomad Stays host dashboard.
2. Navigate to your property listing and find the iCal export or calendar sync section.
3. Copy the iCal URL.

2. Add the iCal Feed in Mangobeds

1. In your Mangobeds dashboard, go to Apps > iCal Sync.
2. Select the unit (room/bed) you want to sync.
3. Click Add Import Source.
4. Select NomadStays from the source dropdown.
5. Paste your Nomad Stays iCal URL.
6. Save.

Mangobeds will now periodically fetch the calendar from Nomad Stays and block any dates that are already booked.

3. Export Your Mangobeds Calendar to Nomad Stays (Optional)

For full two-way sync, you can also send your Mangobeds calendar back to Nomad Stays:

1. In Mangobeds, go to Apps > iCal Sync and find the Export section for your unit.
2. Copy the Mangobeds iCal export URL.
3. In your Nomad Stays host dashboard, find the import iCal option and paste the Mangobeds URL.

Now bookings from Mangobeds, your booking engine, and any other connected channel will also block availability on Nomad Stays.

Tips for Attracting Digital Nomads

Listing on Nomad Stays is a great start, but here are a few more ways to make your property stand out to the remote work community:

• Highlight your Wi-Fi speed — Nomads care about this more than anything. If you have fast, reliable internet, make it visible in your listing.
• Offer weekly and monthly rates — Use Mangobeds rate plans to set competitive long-stay pricing. Digital nomads typically stay 2–8 weeks.
• Mention workspaces — Dedicated desks, coworking areas, or quiet zones are a major selling point.
• Promote community — Nomads choose coliving for the people as much as the place. Highlight communal dinners, events, or coworking hours.

Nomad Stays is just one of several platforms where digital nomads search for accommodations. Check out our guide on the top platforms to list your coliving and attract digital nomads and remote workers for more options.
