Hello Alex,

 

Thanks for reaching out. Claire has a nice place. I would tell Claire, she may want to invest in twin beds vs all King sizes beds in each room. Maybe in 2 rooms w. king size and maximize with twin beds or double/queen beds in the other rooms. Everybody does not want to sleep with some one. I would also improve the bathroom amenities.  Other than that, thats it. Maybe offer some outdoor sitting.

Hola @Claire1930 ,

 

Tú lugar es bonito. Yo pondría al menos dos dormitorios con camas simples. 

 

Quizás buscar un fotógrafo profesional que haga ver la casa con otra perspectiva también ayude.

 

También tienes que ver las reservas de los anuncios de alrededor, quizás no seas la única que solo alquila en junio y el problema es que no hay turismo en otra época del año. 

Ojea el calendario de las casas similares a la tuya 😊

 

Espero que encuentres la solucion

 

Saludos.

Hello @Claire1930,
 
Your place is lovely. I would suggest having at least two bedrooms with single beds.
Perhaps hiring a professional photographer to showcase your home from a different perspective could also help.
 
You should also check the bookings of other listings nearby. Maybe you’re not the only one who only gets rentals in June, and the issue is that there isn’t much tourism during other times of the year.
Take a look at the calendar of homes similar to yours 😊
I hope you find a solution.
Best regards.

To increase bookings for your 2-story historical house during off-peak months, consider the following strategies: optimize your Airbnb listing with high-quality photos and a compelling description that highlights the unique charm of your property; adjust pricing competitively using smart pricing tools; offer discounts for longer stays or off-season bookings; and promote your listing on social media or local travel groups. Also, consider updating your calendar regularly, enabling instant booking, and gathering positive guest reviews to improve visibility and trust.
