Hi everyone.
Summer is gone and fall is here; so are fall prices (lower than summer) but no bookings!!
My October is okay but for November and December I have a total of one booking!!!!
In comparison with last year, I was booked back to back. I also was brand new to hosting and wanted the reviews to establish Villa Lizette. So my prices were lower. But since than, we have upgraded the villa's bathroom, furniture, what we offer, etc. so I cater to a "better" guests.
77 reviews later and the bookings for the fall and winter 2018/19 are DOWN!
I have checked the competition, their prices, what they offer, etc. but I am only willing to go down on my prices to a point... otherwise I start attracting the kind of guests that I don't want. And YES, if my prices go up, I take the cleaning fee and vice versa. Still no bookings. Have rearranged how I describe Villa Lizette, and still no new bookings. I try not to go above $100 per night for the guest, including Airbnb fees and still no new bookings!
Anyone else in the States experiencing the same?
Up above I see three hosts from US and all others from Europe.
What's going on???? :O(
