How minimum nights work in Guesty
The required minimum nights for each date is visible on a listing's calendar, displayed next to the
icon. You can keep this value as the default, adjust it using availability tools, or change it manually.
You can set a default number of minimum nights for a listing in Guesty to determine how many nights a guest must book a reservation on a specific date.
|
For example: If a guest wants to book a reservation at "Listing A" starting December 7th with a 3-night minimum setting, the listing must be reserved from December 7 through December 10, or later. |
If you use Guesty's rate plans you can specify a different minimum nights requirement for a listing.
|
For example: If you apply a rate plan to "Listing A" with a 6-night minimum setting, the listing must be reserved from December 7 through December 13, or later. |
How minimum nights work in Expedia
When managing minimum nights for Expedia listings through Guesty, the behavior differs from standard calendar and availability settings.
Firstly, the minimum nights in the listing availability settings override lower minimum nights settings in the calendar. However, if the calendar setting is higher, it will take precedence.
For example:
|
When Guesty sends the minimum nights values to Expedia, it includes both the calendar settings and the rate plan settings. If there is a conflict, Expedia applies the rate plan's minimum nights value if it is higher than the calendar's minimum nights value for the same date.
If your Expedia listings display an incorrect minimum nights value, review your settings for the listing's calendar and the minimum nights set in your rate plan. Adjust as needed to ensure accurate requirements are reflected on Expedia.
