Setting up holiday pricing helps you capitalize on peak demand, whilst saving time and hassle. Simply pre-set your price changes and they will automatically be applied across all holiday dates. You can experiment with increasing your base price and/or increasing the minimum number of nights guests can stay over, which can increase your earnings during busy periods.
How to offer holiday pricing
To set up holiday pricing:
- Click on Property from your Host Dashboard
- Click on Sites located next to ‘Site’
- Click Edit next to the site you would like to edit
- Click on Site Pricing & Capacity to navigate to the setting
- Scroll down until you see Do you want to automatically adjust your pricing during holidays?
- Click Yes
- Click Edit if you would like to change the default values
- Enter the percentage increase you’d like to apply to your base price during holidays
- Enter the number of minimum nights you’d like to require during holidays
- Click Save
If you have more than one site, you'll be able to do this separately for each site.
Important notes
- Holiday price increases will also increase your price for additional campers at the same rate
- Holiday pricing will not override special night pricing. So, if you’ve set up a special price during the holidays, campers will see that price.
