How to Integrate a Booking System for Hotels or Rentals in FlutterFlow

Create a properties collection with fields: name (String), description (String), images (List of Strings, URLs), pricePerNight (Double), cleaningFee (Double), taxRate (Double, e.g., 0.12 for 12%), amenities (List of Strings), location (String), maxGuests (Integer), bedrooms (Integer), bathrooms (Integer), and hostId (String). Create a reservations collection with fields: propertyId (String), userId (String), checkIn (Timestamp), checkOut (Timestamp), totalNights (Integer), totalPrice (Double), guests (Integer), status (String: 'confirmed', 'cancelled', 'completed'), specialRequests (String), and createdAt (Timestamp).

Create a PropertyList page with a ListView querying the properties collection. Each card shows the first image, name, location, price per night, and a star rating. Add filter controls: a Slider for max price, a DropDown for number of bedrooms, and a TextField for location search. Create a PropertyDetail page receiving a propertyId parameter. Display an image gallery using a PageView with dot indicators, the property name and location, a price per night badge, the amenities as Wrap Chips, description text, and host information. Below the details, add a 'Check Availability' section with booking controls.

In the Check Availability section, add two DateTimePicker widgets: one for check-in and one for check-out. Set the check-in minimum date to today and the check-out minimum date to check-in + 1 day. When both dates are selected, add a Backend Query that checks for conflicting reservations: query reservations where propertyId matches AND status is not 'cancelled' AND checkIn is less than the requested checkOut AND checkOut is greater than the requested checkIn. This is the date overlap formula. If the query returns any results, show 'Dates unavailable' in red. If empty, show 'Available!' in green with the booking button enabled.

Create a Custom Function called calculateBookingPrice that takes checkIn (DateTime), checkOut (DateTime), pricePerNight (Double), cleaningFee (Double), and taxRate (Double). Calculate totalNights as the difference in days between checkOut and checkIn. Calculate subtotal as totalNights * pricePerNight. Calculate tax as (subtotal + cleaningFee) * taxRate. Return a Map with totalNights, subtotal, cleaningFee, tax, and grandTotal. Display the price breakdown on the PropertyDetail page below the availability check: nightly rate x nights, cleaning fee, taxes, and a bold grand total. Update the breakdown dynamically when dates change.

When the user taps 'Book Now' on an available property, navigate to a BookingConfirmation page passing propertyId, checkIn, checkOut, totalPrice, and guests. Display a summary: property name and image, dates, guests, price breakdown, and a cancellation policy (e.g., 'Free cancellation until 48 hours before check-in'). Add a specialRequests TextField for notes. Add a 'Confirm Booking' Button that creates a reservation document with status 'confirmed'. For paid bookings, integrate Stripe Checkout before creating the reservation. After confirmation, navigate to a BookingSuccess page with a summary and a 'View My Bookings' button.

Create a MyBookings page with a ListView querying reservations where userId equals the current user, ordered by checkIn descending. Display each booking as a card with the property image, name, dates, status badge (green for confirmed, red for cancelled, grey for completed), and total price. Add a Cancel button on confirmed bookings that are more than 48 hours from check-in. On cancel, update the reservation status to 'cancelled' via a Cloud Function that also handles any refund logic. Completed bookings show after the checkOut date passes, with a 'Leave Review' button.
