Create Rooms

Quick Setup

Adding a room takes about 1 minute once room types are ready.

This guide helps you add rooms in AVA so they can be assigned to reservations.

Go to: Rooms

AVA room creation

The Add Room button appears only when your PMS is AVA. The Room Types tab is always available. If you use another PMS, create rooms in your PMS and sync them into AVA.

Room types required

You need at least one room type before adding rooms. Create one in the Room Types tab if the list is empty and you have edit access.
