What were the main challenges in managing Green Haven Hostel?
Green Haven Hostel, one of the most awarded hostels in Brazil, was initially managed informally and faced difficulties controlling and organizing reservations, despite gaining recognition for its outstanding service.
The team relied on outdated tools, such as Google Calendar, to manage daily operations. “When we won our first Hostelworld award as the Best Hostel in Latin America (2015), we were still using Google Calendar to manage the beds,” says Vinícius.
This limited approach not only hindered the efficient management of the hostel but also represented an obstacle to growth and maximizing revenue potential.
Which HQBeds solutions have been implemented?
The turning point for Green Haven Hostel began when Vinícius Fiore discovered HQBeds during a hostel industry event. Recognizing the platform's potential to transform their operations, the team decided to adopt HQBeds as their Property Management System (PMS).
“I arrived at the event, exchanged a lot of ideas, and saw what people were doing and what was working. By better understanding the functionalities, I realized that I could completely change the management of the hostel,” explains the hostel owner.

By implementing HQBeds' PMS and Channel Manager, the hostel centralized all reservations on a single platform, providing a clear and real-time overview of operations. Additionally, the product sales feature was used to manage hostel party bookings, which are also an important source of revenue.

The integration of HQBeds transformed the management of Green Haven Hostel. Data-driven decision-making replaced intuition-based processes, leading to a significant increase in occupancy rates and overall revenue.
HQBeds' Point of Sale (POS) system tracked guest consumption, enabling stricter inventory control while also generating valuable insights into customer behavior.
"Nowadays, decisions are much easier to make; we no longer rely on guesswork like we used to. Decisions become more concrete, and the results are reflected in occupancy and revenue," Vinícius rejoices.

In addition to managing its accommodations, which include shared rooms, private rooms, and even tents, Green Haven also uses its point-of-sale system to organize the numerous parties that have made the hostel famous. It is widely recognized as the most party-oriented hostel in Ubatuba.
The events, which can bring together up to 250 people on some of the most important dates of the year, have become such a key part of the operation that they now account for 50% of the business's total revenue. “Everything is managed through HQBeds' POS system,” Vinícius emphasizes.
The marketing team leverages the data available on the platform to develop targeted strategies, driving stronger performance and higher profitability. The ongoing partnership with HQBeds highlights not only the effectiveness of the solution but also the company's commitment to outstanding customer support.
