Grouping specific dates together (ie Thanksgiving, Christmas)

[Jennifer3504]

I am trying to group together November 23rd-27th so that you have to book all 4 nights. I don't want to limit check-in to the 23rd or limit it to 4 nights but I do want any booking to at least cover all 4 of those nights. When you go through Availability>Custom Dates then it allow people to potentially book November 20th-Nov 24th or say Nov 26th-Nov 30th.

Any advice on how to group nights together so 4 specific nights have to be included in that reservation?

@Jennifer3504 only way I can think of is to block those four nights temporarily and only open them closer to the dates and then put them in a block with before and after days blocked, and apply a four night only limit ,and then open the other days after they are booked . a lot of trouble for maybe not much result H

@Jennifer3504 You need to use Professional Hosting Tools (if you don't already have them activated: https://www.airbnb.com/help/article/2499/using-professional-hosting-tools)

Then you need to create a rule set for no check-in/no check-out and apply it to November 23rd, 24th, 25th, & 26th. You can use this same rule set for over the Christmas holiday.

@Emilia42 thank you for the response. I can’t tell if I’m already using Professional Hosting Tools or not but don’t see the a place to activate them. I also don’t see anything called “Rule set” in my options. I followed the link you sent and the directions included. Can you be any more specific on how I would know if these tools are turned on?
