When a property is "listed" on a booking channel, it appears in search results, and guests can book it. By default, new properties in Guesty are set to "Listed" status. You can temporarily unlist a property to make it unbookable—for example, during maintenance periods.
Unlisting won't stop billing (you must deactivate the listing to stop charges) and only affects booking channels, not your Guesty calendar—you can still create manual reservations or blocks. You can only relist a listing if it remains activated.
For multi-units, you can still assign reservations to unlisted sub-units.
Use snooze publishing to automatically list or unlist properties on specific days and times.
Channel-specific information
Airbnb
- When importing a listing from Airbnb, the listing in Guesty retains the same listed status as in Airbnb (if unlisted in Airbnb, it remains unlisted in Guesty).
- Once connected, manage listing status through Guesty—changes will sync to Airbnb automatically.
- If you unlist directly in Airbnb, the change won't reflect in Guesty, but the listing will become unlisted on Airbnb.
-
Disconnecting an Airbnb listing from Guesty won't unlist or deactivate it in Airbnb—you must handle this directly in your Airbnb account.
- If Airbnb suspends your listing for policy violations, it remains active and connected in Guesty with continued billing. The listing won't be bookable on Airbnb but will show as listed in Guesty. Contact Airbnb Support for assistance

Unlist or relist for an individual channel
Currently, you can only list or unlist a listing across all connected channels simultaneously. To manage specific channels:
-
Airbnb: Unlist the listing in your Airbnb account (it won't reflect on Guesty). Relist directly in Airbnb when ready.
-
Booking.com: Disconnect the listing from the integration page in Guesty. Reconnect to Booking.com when ready to relist.
-
Vrbo: It's not recommended to unlist specifically from Vrbo, as this may cause synchronization issues when relisting.
