Why do I not get any bookings?

We just recently started to offer our house here, but are struggling to get any bookings:
https://www.airbnb.de/rooms/1535631890721291632

 

It´s a nice house, beautifully located and our pricing seems reasonable. We had about 800 views, but no bookings at all.

 

Is there anything missing/strange in our ad? I would very much appreciate your opinion.

 

Thanks
Jörn

Hello Jörn,

 

We’ve recently listed our property on Airbnb, and I’ve invited some friends and family to come stay at a reduced rate and leave honest reviews. This should help you work toward achieving Superhost status and make the listing more appealing to potential guests.

 

I’d also recommend updating the property title from simply “Entire home in Svängsta, Sweden” to something that highlights the key features and amenities — for example:
“Cozy forest retreat with garden views, hiking trails & pets welcome.”

A more descriptive title will make the listing stand out and attract more guests.

Hi @Jörn208 ,

 

I suggest looking at the amenities you offer too. I immediately saw there is no television provided and being both Airbnb host and guest, I can tell that television is a need now, especially for sport fans. They don't want to miss seeing their favorite match on a big screen.

 

Also, from the picture, it looks like the bedsheets and beddings are thin. For a house in a cold nature setting, I want to see plush comforters that can make me and my family feel like sleeping on the clouds. 

 

Hope this helps.
