You can change the status of a reservation at any time. Follow the instructions below to change the status via the Reservations page, the Inbox widget, or by selecting the relevant reservation from the Multi Calendar.

Note:

  • The status can be changed for reservations from Vrbo (including via Rentals United), Misterb&b (Pro users only) Guesty manual reservations, and Booking Website reservations (Pro users only). If a reservation status does not sync between a booking channel and Guesty, please contact us.
  • Once a reservation's status is changed to Cancelled/Closed/Declined, it cannot be reverted back to active status.
  • Some booking channels do not allow editing specific details. Fields that can be edited are clickable or feature a drop-down icon.  
  • A Vrbo reservation's status should not be changed in Guesty from "Inquiry" to "Confirmed". Learn more.
  • Be sure to change a Vrbo reservation status to "Canceled" only through the reservation page
