Reservations

[James5123]

Do you remember how to make the setting set up where I need to approve a reservation request? I just had someone reserve the house for 4TH of July weekend (Just 3 nights) instead of trying to get someone in there longer. It automatically gives them the reservation

You need to turn off "Instant book":

Hi @James5123 

You can also switch off Instant Book if you prefer to have more control over who books your property. Another option is to set up your calendar based on your availability and booking preferences.

Just tap on a specific date in your Airbnb calendar, and you can adjust the minimum number of nights, maximum stay, availability, and other booking settings for that date or period.

Thank you.. would it be bad to reach out to the person that booked fourth of July weekend to tell them there should have been a 5 night minimum for that week, or do I need to let them keep the three night reservation
