How do I charge per guest, 1 bedroom place, can only sleep 2

[Eugène0]

Hi,

I have a studio. The price per guest is 350 ZAR. I am totally confused how to charge 350 for the first guest, 350 for the next guest, and have no option to select more than two people.

Air BNB platform is set up for a nightly rate for the space, @Eugène0.  So you can designate that the nightly rate is for one guest and there is an extra charge for any guest over one.  Go to your Pricing tab and scroll down to extra fees and enter the fee for the second guest.  I am not sure if you are using a device, but these are the steps for a computer.

Thank you so much @Linda108

The last question is then, how do I block off AirBnb so as to avoid people booking MORE than 2 guests?

And will when people search between 1 and 2 guests see my listing?

warm regards,

Eugene

@Eugène0

As "sleeps 2" in your settings.

I don't find a setting "sleeps 2".

@Linda108 suggested I change to 

How many guests can your place accommodate?

to 1 and then "For each guest after" a price.

the information seems contradictory and is still very unclear.

@Eugène0  Perhaps it will help you to look at my listing to get a picture of what needs to be shown.  Click on my picture and go to my profile and then select my listing.  You will see at the top that it says "4 guests" and then under Space you will see "accommodates: 4 ".  When you go to edit mode for your listing details, you will enter 2 under "how many guests can your place accommodate".  Now for the extra guest charge, go to Pricing and scroll down to Extra Charges and edit to enter your charge and then "for each guest after"  enter 1.

While there are many hosts willing to help you on the forum, I want to encourage you to spend time reading the hosting articles in the Help Center.  I found it very helpful.  Good luck!!

You need to set the sleeping capacity to two guests. Two is what your studio can max accomodate, so you set number of guests to two. It will then show in searches for those searching accomodation from 1-2 persons, but not for those searching to accomodate 3.
