STR ToolBox Creator Stays · Hosts + travel creators
Create → Connect → Agree → Complete
Hosts have places worth discovering. Creators know how to show what makes a stay special. Creator Stays brings those interests together—with practical guidance to turn “we should collaborate” into a clear plan.
Welcome to the ToolBox family. Bring your ideas, your questions and your personality. The suitcase can wait until the details are agreed.
I Have a PropertyI Create ContentFor hosts, co-hosts and property managers
The morning coffee on the porch. The game room in action. The trail guests keep asking about. Thoughtful creator content can show the real experience behind your listing photos.
Offer at least one complimentary overnight stay and agree the content package together. Describe your property honestly, choose a creator whose work fits and know what files and posts to expect before confirming anything.
Describe your location, dates, guest experience and content priorities using a guided host-offer draft.
Agree photos, videos, platforms, reuse rights and deadlines. Give your future marketing library a purpose.
The baseline includes twelve weekly follow-up pieces, each shared on both agreed platforms, after the stay.
For travel creators and property storytellers
Make travel videos, photograph thoughtful spaces or tell useful destination stories? Show your real work, explain your audience and bring a creative angle that fits the property.
There is no universal follower minimum. Hosts may have their own preferences, and both sides choose the fit. A hosted stay is an agreed content collaboration, with real work and follow-through—not a promise of free vacations.
You bring the creativity. Our preparation resources help you explain it, plan it and keep track of what you agreed.
Support for the steps that matter
Host-offer and creator-profile draft builders help you describe what you offer and what you’re looking for.
A calculator turns hosted nights into a baseline photo/video plan and suggested follow-up dates.
Conversation starters, practical guides, FAQs and checklists help you ask the right questions.
Follow the steps from first agreement through arrival, file delivery, reviews and twelve-week follow-through.
This is a self-service program. Hosts and creators find and contact each other directly through their website accounts. We do not personally introduce or match people, arrange stays, forward messages or chase work. Open My Creator Stays, confirm your email and accept the separate participation agreement, even if you came from the app. Public preparation guides remain open.
Questions? Suggestions? Reach out to socialmedia@str-toolbox.com. We love ideas that help make this clearer and better for everyone.
A clear plan for both sides
Prepare your property offer or creator profile. Be specific about dates, location, audience and representative work.
Review each other’s work and expectations. Either side can decline. An introduction does not confirm a stay.
Record dates, guests, inclusions, costs, content, rights and deadlines. Both accept the plan; the host confirms the booking directly.
Capture the actual experience, share honest content, deliver usable files and complete the agreed follow-ups.
A separate invitation-only track
Featured Stays is our official team-content program for the founders, designated staff and specially invited representatives. Participants create property features for official STR ToolBox channels, rather than relying on their own personal following.
Each Featured Stay has a separately agreed package. An Ambassador account does not automatically include an invitation or a hosted trip.
Invited participants use their own website accounts for separately approved assignments, instructions and delivery records. There is no public team signup. Ordinary Creator Stays enrollment does not grant this team access.
Create your website account, confirm your email and make your separate Creator Stays commitment. Then post a host offer or creator profile and browse for your own partner. You manage the collaboration directly; no staff introduction is required or provided.
Hosts: Get StartedCreators: Get StartedThe member workspace opens through these buttons. An application is not a booking; both parties agree the brief and the host confirms the reservation directly.

We don’t manage your property, we GROW it.
Creator Stays brings participating hosts and creators together around agreed content and a real property experience. STR ToolBox then gives eligible hosts a way to edit the footage, organize assets, prepare captions, schedule supported social posts and create paid Meta campaigns.
Creator Stays, the Ambassador Program and Featured Stays remain separate tracks. Featured Stays is invitation-only official team-content work, not a preferred-property ranking or an automatic benefit of an Ambassador account.
A hosted-content collaboration is an agreement between a property host and a creator. The host offers the agreed stay; the creator supplies the agreed content and follow-through. Read the current Creator Stays terms and website participation steps, then find and contact potential collaborators yourself.
| Step | A practical starting point |
|---|---|
| Prepare | Hosts describe the property, available dates, conditions and content needs. Creators show actual work and the audience they serve. |
| Connect | Use the separate website-program workflow to find and contact each other. ToolBox does not personally match or introduce participants. |
| Agree | Confirm the stay, files, posts, usage rights, deadlines, any disclosed costs and current follow-up requirements before confirming travel. |
| Use | With the agreed rights, approved content can support our Video Editor, Media & Brand Library, captions and future supported publishing. |
Should a host assume a complimentary stay includes unlimited rights to every image?
No. Agree on the specific content and usage rights. Clear agreed deliverables and rights help both sides understand the collaboration.
