Case Study: Cabiner achieves 100% automated payments and admin-free guest experiences with Mews

Cabiner use Mews' integrations to power their digital hotels

Cabiner, a Dutch wilderness brand operating 13 remote cabins in National Parks for 8,000+ guests a year, needed a way to automate guest-facing operations and connect bespoke systems (like their custom booking engine and supplier ordering) without any on-site reception. They chose Mews — using Mews’ open API, PMS and wide-ranging integrations — to provide the connectivity and automation required to scale while preserving their low‑touch, off‑grid guest experience.

Mews’ open API and integrations allowed Cabiner to plug custom front-ends, payment flows and supplier links directly into the PMS, automate payments at booking, generate automated door codes and pre-stay communications, and connect third‑party tools like Zapier. The result: 100% of payments automated, 100% of check‑ins and check‑outs handled online, zero payment discrepancies, and a fully admin‑free guest experience — demonstrating Mews’ role as the “glue” powering Cabiner’s digital hotels.
