How can I change the number of guests?
If you need to modify the number of guests on your confirmed reservation, you can request changes directly through your booking platform account. The process varies slightly depending on whether you booked through Holidu, Airbnb, or Booking.com. Here's a comprehensive guide to help you update your guest count.
Change guests on Booking.com
To modify the number of guests on your Booking.com reservation, follow these steps:
- Log in to your Booking.com account
- Navigate to the "Bookings and trips" section in the top right corner
- Select the reservation you want to modify
- Scroll down and click the "Modify" button
- Check if your booking is changeable. If the property allows modifications, you will see an option to "Modify booking"
- Select the new number of guests and confirm the change
- If you don't see the option to modify, contact the property directly. Click on "Contact property" or call them to request changes
Once you submit your request, Booking.com will receive a notification and evaluate whether the change is possible based on the property's guest capacity and availability.
Change guests on Airbnb
To modify the number of guests on your Airbnb reservation, follow these steps:
- Log in to your Airbnb account
- Click "Trips" in the top right corner and select the trip you want to change
- Scroll down to the Reservation details section
- Click "Change reservation"
- Adjust the number of guests for your stay
- Click "Save"
- Review your changes and click "Send request"
After submitting your request, Airbnb will review it to confirm that the change is possible according to the property's guest capacity. You will receive a notification with details about any price adjustments.
Change guests on Holidu
To modify the number of guests on your Holidu reservation, you have two options depending on whether you have a Holidu account.
If you have a Holidu account:
- Log in to your Holidu account at holidu.com
- Click on "My bookings" in the top right corner
- Select the reservation you would like to change from your list of bookings
- Scroll down to the Booking details section and click "Change reservation"
- Adjust the number of guests as needed
- Click "Save"
- Review your changes and click "Send request"
If you do not have a Holidu account:
- Find your Holidu booking confirmation email
- Click on the "Booking details" link
- This will take you to your booking page where you can request the change by clicking "Change reservation"
After you send your request, Holidu will review it to check if the change is possible based on the property's guest capacity. You will receive a notification with details about any price changes. Once you confirm, Holidu will process your request.
Important considerations when changing guest numbers
- Property capacity: Changes depend on the property's maximum guest limits. The accommodation may not be able to accept additional guests if it has reached its capacity.
- Price changes: The total price of your booking may change if you increase the number of guests. You will be notified of any price adjustments before the change is finalized.
- Approval required: All changes must be approved by the booking platform and the property host before they take effect. The host has the final say on whether they can accommodate the new guest count.
- Availability: Changes may not be possible if the property has other bookings or restrictions that prevent accommodating additional guests.
- Timing: It is best to request changes as soon as possible to allow the property time to review and approve your request.
What if I need additional help?
If you encounter any issues when trying to change the number of guests, or if the option to modify is not available, we recommend contacting the property directly through your booking platform. You can also reach out to the customer support team for your specific booking platform:
