Pilon is the only welcome booklet service that writes a La Réunion host's whole booklet for them.

You rent a gîte or a case créole beside your own home, or a studio by the coast. You run it alone, next to a job. This is the booklet you never find the evening for.

What you give

Your address, and a few house facts: the wifi, check-in and check-out, the house rules and who to contact.

That is everything Pilon asks of you.

How it works

  1. 1Give Pilon your address and the house facts.
  2. 2Pilon writes the whole booklet around that address.
  3. 3You get the booklet as a PDF.

Around your door

Hikes, beaches, markets and Creole words, chosen for the place your house actually stands, not for the whole island.

A sample page

One page of a booklet, written for a made-up host. It is a sample, not a real booklet and not a real guest's stay.

10 euros, once.

For each booklet, for each property, paid through a hosted checkout. Nothing renews.
