Request to Enable Extra Guest Fee Pricing - Listing Configuration

Request to Enable Extra Guest Fee Pricing - Listing Configuration

Hello Airbnb Support,

I need assistance configuring occupancy-based pricing for my listing.

Current Issue: My listing charges a flat €650 per night regardless of guest count (1-6 people), which prevents bookings from couples and small groups who find this rate excessive for their party size.

Base Pricing Structure:

  • Base nightly rate: €450 per night (applies to 1-2 guests)
  • Extra guest fee: €50 per additional guest per night
  • Fee trigger: Starting from guest #3 (guests 1-2 pay base rate only)
  • Maximum occupancy: 6 guests

Expected Guest-Facing Pricing:

Pricing Calculation: Base Rate + (Extra Guests × Guest Fee)

  • 1-2 guests: €450 per night (€450 + €0)
  • 3 guests: €500 per night (€450 + €50)
  • 4 guests: €550 per night (€450 + €100)
  • 5 guests: €600 per night (€450 + €150)
  • 6 guests: €650 per night (€450 + €200)

Current Problem: I cannot locate the "Extra Guest Fee" or "Standard Fees and Charges" settings in my host dashboard. I have temporarily disconnected my channel manager (Hostex) to ensure full access to all pricing features.

Request: Please either:

  1. Configure this pricing structure directly on my listing, or
  2. Provide exact navigation instructions to access these settings in my current interface

This occupancy-based pricing will help attract more bookings from couples and small families while maintaining revenue for larger groups.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards

Hi @Liam3138 … yes, I use the extra guests on my listing. So any guests over 4 people. 

How to add your extra guest fee

 

  1. Log in to Airbnb and go to Hosting
  2. Select your listing
  3. Open Pricing
  4. Go to Additional charges
  5. Find Extra guests
  6. Set:
    • how many guests are included in your base price (so mine is 4 guests) 
    • the extra guest fee per night
  7. Save

Airbnb will automatically add the extra guest fee per extra guest, per night and guests will see their full price before booking.
You dont need to mention anything about the extra payment. Smaller groups will automatically see the lower price. 

 

(If you don’t see “Extra guests”, Airbnb has disabled it for that listing and you may need to speak with the Airbnb Support team.) 

Hope that helps and happy hosting! ♥️
