How do I update or edit my listing's information?
You can update most of your listing details yourself, directly from your Holidu account on the website or in the Holidu Host app. This guide explains what information you can edit independently and how to keep your listing accurate and appealing to guests.
Information you can update independently
Pricing
You have full control over your property's pricing structure:
- Seasons and pricing: Set your nightly and weekend prices, including minimum stay requirements, check-in and check-out day preferences, and availability calendar.
Discounts
Configure the discounts you wish to offer to guests to encourage bookings at different times of the year.
General information
Update key details about your property:
- Property details: Name, type, surface area, floor number, and rating.
- Capacity and rooms: Change your property type, guest capacity, rooms, and bed setup. Your declared guest capacity cannot exceed what your configured beds can accommodate. For example, one king-size bed sleeps 2 guests, while two bunk beds sleep 4 guests. If a property already exceeds this limit, the General info tab will show "Issue with the capacity" and cannot be published until it is corrected. Properties already live will remain live. If no beds are configured yet, you will see "Required info" instead of an error. When configuring bedrooms, please consider local regulations regarding enclosed rooms, windows, and minimum area requirements.
- Legal requirements: Licence number and cadastral number.
Amenities
Add or update the amenities available at your property, including Wi-Fi, pool, bed linens, towels, pet access, and appliances. To mark an amenity as available, it must be offered at all times. You can add a cost where the field allows it; otherwise, the amenity is offered free to guests. For costs that depend on guest requests, mention them in your property description without specifying exact amounts, as distribution channels do not allow this.
Additional charges and protection
Add any extra fees you wish to apply to your bookings:
- Cleaning fee
- Deposit
- Extra guest fee
- City tax
- Towel charges
- Other applicable fees
Arrival and departure information
Customize your property's check-in and check-out experience:
- Check-in and check-out times: Set your property's check-in and check-out hours. These are the times when you guarantee someone will be present, or a lockbox will be available, to welcome guests free of charge.
- Advance notice: Set the minimum amount of time guests must book in advance. You can choose from same day up to 3 days before check-in. If you choose same day, you also set the latest time guests can book for arrival that day (15:00 by default). This can be up to 1 hour before the end of your check-in window.
- Check-in details: Update who is responsible for check-in, your check-in method, and arrival instructions. Please notify any guests with existing bookings about these changes.
- Check-in contact details: Name, phone number, and email address of the person responsible for check-in.
Collaborators
Add a collaborator to help you manage your listing by giving them access to your account.
Calendar synchronization
If your property is listed on another booking channel, sync your calendars to prevent double bookings and ensure availability is consistent across all platforms.
Title and description
Keep your listing description up to date whenever you update a service or detail. Generate a new description and adjust it to reflect the latest changes to keep your listing accurate and appealing to guests. You can edit your description at any time. For step-by-step guidance, see Generating your property description.
Photo management
You can manage your photo gallery yourself, including both your own photos and those taken by Holidu's professional photographers. See How to manage your photos.
Address
You can update your property address if needed. See How to edit your address.
Important considerations
- Changes to descriptions, amenities, and photos are visible to guests after review or immediately, depending on the field.
- Some major updates, such as prices or policies, may impact search ranking or guest experience.
- Hosts now have self-service control of their property photos, including images from Holidu's professional photography.
- Always check the guest-facing preview to confirm that your information is accurate and complete.
Best practices for maintaining your listing
- Keep your calendar, photos, amenities, and contact details up to date to support more bookings and provide a better guest experience.
- Use detailed, accurate property and room descriptions to set the right expectations for potential guests.
- Review your pricing, policies, and charges regularly, especially before high and low seasons.
- Update your address if you relocate or if there are changes to your property's location details.
Local market knowledge is built into Holidu's pricing recommendations and product, but you remain in control of your prices, your calendar, and the details that make your listing unique. Keeping your information current ensures potential guests have the most accurate picture of your property and increases your chances of receiving bookings.
