How do I set a different price for two people booking as opposed to just one?

Hi there,

 

While I increased the limit for number of people to stay  from one to two, my calender seems still occupied although only one person has booked on that date.

 

I want to have people stay in my shareroom at most two, so I would  like to make the calender available until two people book on the same date.

 

All what I can do is to create different listing while it's the same shareroom ?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Best

If I understand your question correctly, you have a shared room space with 2 individual beds for guests and you're trying to give people the option of reserving a single bed (and another person reserve the other) or they can reserve 2 beds.

 

You can do this a few different ways:

 

1) You can make 2 listings - one for each bed - with max of one person, and tell guests that they can reserve both listings if they are traveling with 2 people. You may want to specify which bed (top or bottom bunk) is reserved for each listing. This requires the guest to do extra work with 2 reservations, and also means you don't come up in listings when people search for rooms for 2 people, so possibly not your best option.

 

2) You can make 3 listings - 1 listing for Bed A (max 1-person), 1 listing for Bed B (max 1-person), and a 3rd listing that's for both beds (max 2-person). In your availability settings, be sure to synch the calendars (so when Bed A is booked, the 2-bed listing is blocked, or when the 2-bed listing is blocked, the individual bed listings can't be booked).

 

Airbnb has a help article here, you're listing beds rather than rooms, but same advice applies:

This solved my problem.

 

Thank you Allison. 

Hi,

 

Sorry to bother you with questions but I want to amend my listing as you suggested and I'm not 100% sure how to go about it.

 

So to list 2 beds in one room separately :  on Edit basics   I chose shared room  accommodates 1

on rooms and beds should I also choose 1 bed or 2?

 

Thanks for your time.

 

Kind regards,

Hi I have a listing of my home in airbnb and have rooms with single bed for 1 person and another room with double bed for 2 people. I want to charge different prices for different type of bedrooms as the double bed room should be charged more than the single room. I have only one listing because its in the same house. How to do that  ????
