Good morning fellow hosts

 

We are happy to say that we have finally started getting bookings for stays at our STR from international guests for which we are very grateful https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/577508328817610497?guests=1&adults=1&s=67&unique_share_id=8dbe2efa-daac... 

 

But we've also just had our suggestion for an AirBnB Experience accepted, which made us very excited. We've been eagerly expecting bookings, but so far, so little interest(!) So we started marketing it ourselves, going from door to door to guest houses and ABnBs in our area to promote it. Most hosts didn't know what an ABnB Experience is and they found it hard to search for it as it's not prominently displayed on ABnB's home page, and you only find it once you've typed in where you want to go then the next landing page shows 'Stays' or 'Experiences'. Phew, flaming hoops to jump through!

 

We started wondering whether we should put any more effort into it. We realise there are many variables but wondered if we could invite you to look at our listing to see if we are doing something wrong and offer some suggestions on what we can do to get bookings.

Hi Jenny, we're not sure if we are doing anything wrong, but the only bookings we've had so far, are from (non-paying) promo links that we've sent to family and friends.

We'll appreciate feedback on how we can make it more attractive.

 

Regards

Lindie
