Vacation rental hosting can be incredibly rewarding - who doesn’t love welcoming guests and sharing the magic of their property? But, it comes with its own set of challenges, especially when it comes to maximising bookings and staying competitive. That’s where a Travelnest optimisation call comes in. When you sign up for free with Travelnest, you gain access to a range of tools and support to help you optimise your property listing for greater success. But perhaps the most valuable perk? A personalised optimisation call with one of our property experts. Curious about what happens during this call and how it can skyrocket your bookings? Let's break it down.
What is a Travelnest optimisation call?
A Travelnest optimisation call is a one-on-one session with a seasoned property expert. This isn’t just a casual chat; it’s a deep-dive into your property listing to ensure every detail is polished, competitive, and ready to impress potential guests.
Whether you’re new to hosting, a seasoned Airbnb superhost, or someone managing multiple properties, our experts tailor the session to suit your needs.
What happens during the call?
Our goal is simple - to turn your property listing into a guest magnet. Here’s what we’ll cover during your call:
The basics: Nailing the foundation of your listing
Before anything else, our property experts ensure the basics are spot on. We’ll make sure your listing accurately reflects your property, including its size, location, type, and imagery.
Why does this matter? Clarity and accuracy are crucial for building trust with potential guests. A well-detailed listing reduces the chances of cancellations and negative reviews.
Bonus Tip: If you’re unsure about which property photos make the best first impression, our team can guide you on this too.
Listing amenities: Showcasing what makes you unique
Amenities can make or break a guest’s decision to book. During the call, we’ll help you highlight the right amenities and present them in the most appealing light.
You’ll learn how to describe features like Wi-Fi, parking, or that dreamy hot tub in a way that entices guests. We’ll even suggest which photos best showcase these amenities.
Remember, potential guests will compare your property to dozens of others, so standing out matters!
Pricing and promotions
Setting your pricing can feel like a bit of a gamble, especially with fluctuating demand. During the optimisation call, we’ll introduce you to promotional tools that can help boost bookings, like offering discounts for longer stays or last-minute bookings.
Pro Tip: All pricing and promotions are entirely under your control. If a strategy isn’t working, you can opt out and try something new; flexibility is key!
Calendar and availability
If you already have some external listings, syncing up your calendar across platforms is essential to avoid double bookings. During the call, we’ll help you automate this process so you stay organised and confident.
We’ll also advise on the best practices for check-in and check-out times, deposits, and minimum stays, all tailored to support your booking goals while staying fair in a competitive market.
Why book an optimisation call?
Here’s the truth: hosts who take advantage of our optimisation calls see incredible results. On average, our customers experience an 85% increase in bookings.
Why such a massive increase? Because our property experts are genuinely the best in the business. Not only do they have years of experience in vacation rental management, but they also know Travelnest like the back of their hand. When you combine that level of expertise with a personal touch, great things happen.
Some fun stats? We’ve worked with over 7,000 hosts across more than 10,000 properties. Our methods are tried, tested, and most importantly, proven to work.
Feeling unsure or overwhelmed about optimising your listing? You’re not alone. But the good news is that you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. With Travelnest’s support, hosting becomes a whole lot simpler.
