Hello @Rajat33 👋
I added your photo and link to this thread so that hosts can find it easier.
I hope this helps!
Hi @Rajat33! I would definitely invest in photos. In the mind-time change the main photo. Does not look attractive the place. The place has potential! Good luck
Hi Andrea,
Thank you for your feedback, I really appreciate it! 😊 I’ll definitely work on updating the photos and will change the main one in the meantime. I’m glad you see the potential in the place! Thanks again for your support and suggestions. 🙌✨
hi @Rajat33
Your listing looks awesome!
To get to the top of listing internationally , I would list it under “Entire villa in Goa” rather than “Candolim” as people from overseas aren’t particularly fussy about a particular region.
I would also add extra folding beds so guests can accommodate additional family members
regards and good luck

Hi Babu,
Thank you for your kind words and valuable suggestion! 😊 I’ve already added extra beds to accommodate more guests and make the space more flexible. I'll also consider updating the listing title to ‘Entire Villa in Goa’ to attract a wider international audience. Appreciate your insights and support! 🙌
Hi @Rajat33 , it is important to know which type of guests you are catering for whether they be locals or foreigners. Look at other pet friendly establishments and see what they do different from you. I will definitely change the light coloured, see through curtains and add a bit more carpets. I will also add comfortable couches in the living room for those watching tv.
Hi Anita,
Thanks for your valuable input! 😊 I’ll work with the existing setup to enhance the space as much as possible. I appreciate your suggestions! 🙌

Hi Ritchie,
Thank you so much for sharing these valuable resources! 😊 I truly appreciate your support and the helpful tips for improving my listing and attracting more bookings. I'll definitely go through these articles and apply the insights. Thanks again for your encouragement and guidance! 🙌
Hi @Rajat33 ! The place seems great! You have gathered so much information for someone visiting the area, very helpful. To enhance your listing, I would invest some more time in the pictures. With better lighting and change of angles you can get so much more out of the place, also when choosing the first picture. Also, think of what makes your listing especially attractive for someone visiting: Perhaps include “Entire villa close to beach” or something in that sense in the title. Best of luck! 🙂
Hi Alexia,
Thank you for your kind words and helpful suggestions! 😊 I appreciate your insights on improving the photos—I’ll definitely focus on better lighting and angles to make the space stand out more. I’ll also revisit the title to highlight the best features of the listing. Thanks again for your support! 🙌
Hello @Rajat33
First of all, I wish you prosperity in the beginning of your business journey with this wonderful platform Airbnb, which has all the tools for success that guide hosts to the right path.
All that the previous hosts mentioned is great advice. From my point of view, it’s important to focusing on the cover or main image, as it is the key to curiosity for the guest, in addition to the name of the residence that colleagues mentioned. Also, prices need to be reviewed periodically with the festive seasons in your area and compared to neighboring residences in this regard. All the best
