Hi @Natalie10,
Might I suggest a different approach?
I agree that you could add a special note in your title as @Jeet0 suggests to drum up interest. I would also change the pricing on your calendar to the price you wish per night during those dates to increase interest. I would then set a "requirement" under the minimum and maximum nights for specific dates. This way, anyone who wishes to book during this time would have to book the entire time in order to book. In this instance, you could also leave IB on if you wish.
Here is a Community Help Guide showing how to do this (scroll down to the section "Requirements Specific Dates"): https://community.airbnb.com/t5/Tips-Tricks/Setting-Minimum-and-Maximum-Night-Stay-A-Community-Help-...
Here is an example. Let's say my family is going away for a week and we want someone in for the whole week (April 10 -17). I would set a requirement and choose "Requirements Specific Dates" and then choose the dates April 10 - 17. If I wanted them to stay the entire time, I would choose "Minimum 7 nights" and in this case since I probably want them to be there before we leave, I would choose that they must "check in on Sundays".
Once you apply these settings, it will show up as under Min/Max stays section.
@Natalie10, Please make sure to play around with this if this is the way you are planning on going. I did give it a try and it does seem to let me choose to book before the tenth and checkout during the week after so be cautious.
