Sistays is a women-first travel platform built to make travel safer and more meaningful for solo female travellers in Bali, while uplifting female entrepreneurs locally. We connect female travellers with trusted local stays, drivers, guides, and women-only experiences in Bali. Launching in Bali first, Sistays will expand globally city by city.

Sistays serves women travelling solo, with friends, family, or for business who want safer trips in Bali and trusted local connections. It also supports women-led businesses in Bali and women-friendly providers that prioritise female guest safety and values.

Can men book through Sistays?

No. During the beta phase, Sistays is open exclusively to women travellers in Bali. This allows us to focus on women's travel needs, test safety processes, and support providers who prefer women-led bookings. Male bookings may be considered in the future once safety systems are established.

Is Bali safe for solo female travellers?

Bali is generally considered one of the safer destinations in Southeast Asia for solo women travellers, but risks still exist, particularly around transport, scams, poorly vetted services, and nightlife. Sistays focuses on what can be controlled: verified stays, drivers, guides, and experiences, along with clear safety guidelines in Bali.

How does Sistays keep women travellers safer?

Sistays verifies partners through identity checks, business documentation, references, and women-focused safety reviews in Bali. Partners are monitored continuously and can be removed if standards are not met.

How is Sistays different from Booking.com or GetYourGuide?

Sistays combines stays and experiences like general booking platforms, but with a curated, women-led model in Bali. Only verified partners are listed, and bookings are controlled by women travellers. While most platforms optimise for scale and price, Sistays prioritises trust, accountability, and transparency.

Is it really free to join Sistays?

There is no cost to join Sistays. All booking-enabled profiles are free to create and maintain. After launch, a commission may apply only when a booking is made, and only to booking-based profiles. There are no listing fees or fixed payments. Early partners receive 0% commission for the first 3 months.

How does Sistays verify partners?

We check your online presence and reviews on platforms like Google Maps, TripAdvisor, or Instagram. If you are new or don't have reviews yet, we can do a short online interview instead. Later, the verification process will include secure ID verification inside the platform.

What does verified mean on Sistays?

Verification includes identity checks, business verification, and a safety-focused review of services. For drivers and guides, this also includes licence checks, vehicle details, and references.

How are drivers vetted?

Drivers must submit valid licences, vehicle details, and ID, and are interviewed for safety, communication, and reliability in Bali. Drivers experienced with solo female travellers are prioritised.

What if I feel unsafe during a booking?

You can report safety concerns via your booking page, messaging, or Support. Reports are reviewed within 24 hours, and partners may be temporarily paused. Sistays may provide practical assistance, such as sharing local emergency contacts. Travellers are strongly advised to have travel insurance.

When will Sistays launch?

We are launching in 2026. You'll be among the first partners to be featured when we go live.

What should I do if I get Bali belly?

Rest, hydrate with bottled water and electrolytes, eat plain food, and see a clinic if you have fever or it lasts more than two or three days.

Where do I find pharmacies and clinics in Bali?

Pharmacies (apotek) are everywhere in the main areas, and international clinics like BIMC and Siloam handle anything more serious — keep your travel insurance details handy.
