"List" or "unlist" a listing on a booking channel

When a listing is “listed” on a booking channel, it appears in the channel’s search results and is visible for booking by guests. When connecting a Guesty listing to a booking channel, it will be listed on the channel by default. You can unlist the listing and list it again, for example, if the property is temporarily undergoing maintenance. 

Unlisting a listing will not stop the billing for it — you'll need to deactivate it. Also, unlisting a listing on a booking channel won’t affect the Guesty calendar. You can manually create reservations or blocks while the listing remains unavailable on the channel. Pro users: You can also assign a reservation to an unlisted sub-unit.

Follow the instructions below to list or unlist a listing on all its connected channels, including Guesty Booking Engine (Booking Website for Lite users), and Guesty Websites (Pro users).

Before you begin

Note the following prerequisites and limitations.

Airbnb

  • You can unlist a listing via Guesty, and the change will be reflected in Airbnb. If you unlist the listing via Airbnb, the change won’t reflect in Guesty, but the listing will become unlisted in the Airbnb platform.
  • Disconnecting an Airbnb listing from Guesty won’t make the listing unlisted or deactivated in Airbnb. If you disconnected an Airbnb listing, unlist or deactivate the listing directly in Airbnb.
  • A listing can be suspended or paused by Airbnb if it violates Airbnb’s Trust and Safety concerns or other policies. In this case, the listing remains active and connected in Guesty, and billing for it continues. The listing won't be bookable on Airbnb but will be shown as listed in Guesty. Contact Airbnb Support for further assistance.
