Hi, I have set (uk) summer holidays for 7 nights, from saturdays only. However, I am still getting enquiries for 4, 5, whatever number of nights during that period. My other accounts automatically tell guests this will not work, but the airbnb site wastes everyones time by saying it is possibly available. Am I missing a setting somwhere???

Any help gratefully recieved.

Best wishes

@Louisa36 Guests can send you inquiries about anything they want. They cannot actually book for less than 7 days, but they can message hosts and ask all day long.

@Louisa36  @Cynthia-and-Chris1 are correct.  Allowing inquiries about limitation aspects of the listing that the host has posted  allows the host to determine if they want to make an exception.

@Louisa36 the same thing here , we don't host children but every now and than we get an inquiry from families trying to persuade us to host them.

the best is to have pre written answer which you can send with just one click
