Setting up my rental - how/where to add more text?

I was renting through VRBO but am switching to Airbnb so I'm setting up my rental.  How do I add more info  than the 500 word description I was allowed to add?

Have some important info to share about the rental.

Thanks for any help on this.

Hello @Tessy19 

 

You will be able to go back to your listing and add lots more info once it's gone live and you have completed all the necessary checks.  

 

Don't open your calendar too far in advance to start with (Airbnb set it automatically to one year ahead!) and think about whether you are ready to accept Instant Book reservations or not?  It is a now a default setting for new listings.  Here is a link that explains Airbnb's new listing settings:

All the best with your listing;

Hello @Joelle43  and thank you for your advice. Our listing is in a remote location so I wanted to be sure that I made all that very clear before we started posting the rental. But if I can quickly go in immediately after I posted and make those additions, then that would be fine. Seems that’s the thing to do.

Thank you for this link as well. I’ll take a look at it.
