Hi everyone,
My guests Paula and Peter booked my place in South Europe by the beach for 6 months (until May) and now decided to leave, which means i will have difficlty at this time to rent March and April as guest usually rent my place 4 and 5 months in advance.
What kind of policy is this that a guest is able to block the dates of a host for 6 months and pay month by month giving them the possibility to leave as they please with only one month notice?!
This means the risk is on my side and not on the guest's. If rent would be paid all at once this would not happen.
I find it far too easy for the guests who do not want to comply or think Airbnb is a jokje, and very frustating for the host!
I rented the same house last year for the same period via another website and when the guests arrived they had already paid all their 6 months. Lesson: it is possible!
Best
Al
