Hi There

Got a complicated one here. I'm looking for how to set up a system of allowing minimum 3 night stays during May, June, July and August. Then having a 90 day minimum for the rest of the year.

I know Booking.com settings don't allow a minimum stay figure greater than 31 days. I'm not sure about Airbnb yet.

Does anyone know how best to set up this system? Can it be set up.

Also is there a way to block one channels calender for certain dates but not the other?

 

Any help gratefully received.

 

For those of you wondering why I am puzzling over this.

London has a 90 day legal restriction on short term rentals and once those 90 days are used you cannot have any more short stays. You can have longer stays but they then have to be 90 days or more.

Hey James,

You can use Seasons to set minimum nights for specific date ranges, and those Seasonal rules will override your property level rules. You'll find this support content helpful:

For API connections to channels, you can create a blackout specific only to that channel. Go to Settings > API Integrations > Blackouts tab, Create Channel Blackout, and specify which channel you want the blackout to be.

Blackout is not a block and will not appear on your main OwnerRez calendar, will not affect any iCal calendar exports, and will not trigger any Mutual Blocking.
