How should I handle this situation in a professional manner?

Hello,

I have a booking confirmed for November 23rd to November 25th, and I also have another guest who needs to book from November 22nd to November 29th. I prefer the second guest. How should I handle this situation in a professional manner?

You handle it by proceeding with the confirmed booking @Fadhel4 

how would you feel as a guest if a host cancelled your booking because they felt they had a better offer? 

cancelling the dusting guest would also lead to financial penalties.

@Fadhel4 As @Helen3 says - You continue with the original booking. If you don't want short bookings in future then up your minimum stay but you can't take a booking and then cancel it just because a better offer comes along.
