Updating your listing information on Holidu is straightforward and can be done independently from your host account. Whether you're using the Holidu website or the Holidu Host app, you have full control over most of your property details. Below is a comprehensive guide to the information you can edit yourself.

Pricing Information

You can manage all pricing-related details independently to maximize your earning potential and control your availability:

• Seasons & Pricing: Edit your nightly and weekend rates, minimum stay requirements, and check-in/check-out day preferences directly from your account.
• Guest Discounts: Create attractive discount offers for guests booking longer stays or multiple nights.
• Additional Charges: Update cleaning fees, tourism taxes, security deposits, and per-night charges for extra guests to reflect your current policies.

General Property Information

Keep your property details current to ensure guests have accurate expectations:

• Property Details: Modify your property type and guest capacity in accordance with your local licensing requirements.
• Check-in & Check-out Times: Customize your arrival and departure hours. These times represent when you or a designated representative will be available to welcome guests at no additional cost.
• Advance Notice: Set the minimum booking notice period guests must provide, ranging from same-day bookings to up to three days in advance.

Amenities and Services

Present your property's best features to attract more bookings:

• Edit Services: Add or update amenities including WiFi, pool access, bed linens, towels, pet policies, and kitchen appliances. Remember that amenities marked as available must be offered at all times without additional charges. If an amenity comes with extra costs or isn't always available, mention it in your property description instead.

Sleeping Arrangements

Configure your bedroom and bed setup to match your property accurately:

• Bedrooms & Beds: Update the number of bedrooms and beds available at your property. When configuring bedrooms, ensure compliance with local regulations regarding enclosed spaces, windows, and minimum room dimensions.

Arrival Information

Manage how guests will check in to your property:

• Check-in Details: Specify who will handle guest arrivals—whether it's you, a property manager, or another designated person. Always notify guests with existing bookings if you change this information.

Cancellation Policies

Set cancellation terms that work for your business:

• Set or Modify Cancellation Policies: Adjust your cancellation policy to match your preferences. Keep in mind that policy changes apply only to new bookings, not to reservations already made by guests.

Collaborators and Account Access

Delegate management responsibilities when needed:

• Add a Collaborator: Grant another person access to your listing to help with management tasks such as responding to inquiries or updating availability.

Calendar Synchronization

Prevent double bookings across multiple platforms:

• Sync Your Calendar: If your property is listed on other booking platforms, synchronize your calendars with Holidu to maintain accurate availability across all channels.

Contact Information

Keep your communication details current:

• Update Contact Details: Modify your phone number or email address as needed. If your contact information is the same as the person handling check-in, remember to update the Guest Arrival Information section as well. Always inform existing guests about contact changes.

Property Description

Your property description is crucial for attracting the right guests:

• Update Your Property Description: Whenever you change services, amenities, or other property details, update your description to match. This ensures potential guests have complete and accurate information. For detailed guidance on creating an effective description, refer to Generating Your Property Description.

Photo Management

Showcase your property with a professional photo gallery:

• Manage Your Photos: You have complete control over your photo gallery, including both your own photos and professional images taken by Holidu. For comprehensive instructions, see How to manage your photos.

Property Address

Update your location details when necessary:

• Edit Your Address: You can modify your property address if you need to correct information or if your property's location details change. For step-by-step instructions, visit How to edit your address.

Important Considerations

• Changes to descriptions, amenities, and photos typically become visible to guests after a brief review or take effect immediately, depending on the field being updated.
• Significant updates to pricing and policies may impact your search ranking and overall guest experience.
• You now have complete self-service control over your property photos, including professional images captured by Holidu.
• Always preview your listing from a guest's perspective to verify that all information is accurate and appealing.

Best Practices for Maintaining Your Listing

• Keep your calendar synchronized, photos fresh, amenities accurate, and contact information up-to-date to maximize bookings and guest satisfaction.
• Write detailed and honest property and room descriptions to set appropriate expectations and reduce booking issues.
• Review your pricing, policies, and additional charges seasonally, especially before peak and low seasons, to stay competitive.
• Respond promptly to guest inquiries and maintain clear communication about any changes to your listing.
• Use the Holidu Host app or website regularly to monitor your listing performance and make timely updates.
