IdoBooking in the property’s daily work
With 300 apartments and over 10,000 bookings a year, what matters is how much of the work the team does in one place. Features used every day:
- Channel Manager. Booking.com, Airbnb, Noclegi.pl, Expedia, Google, the own website and owner bookings in one calendar. When the portfolio fills up within a few days before a long weekend, synchronisation protects against overbooking.
- Communication Centre. Messages from Booking.com and Airbnb guests arrive in the IdoBooking panel. The team replies in one place, without logging in to each portal’s app.
- Flexible pricing. Discounts and surcharges make it quick to adjust rates to the season, long weekends and holidays.
- Online payments. Payment is handled in the system together with the booking.
- Discount codes. A ready-made promotional tool that encourages guests to book directly on apartamenty.swinoujscie.pl.
“What we value most in IdoBooking is the ability to manage all sales channels in one place, flexible price management and centralised guest communication. At the scale of our business, covering 300 apartments, these features allow us to streamline our team’s daily work, save time and respond effectively to changing demand, while ensuring a high standard of guest service.” – the Apartamenty Świnoujście team
A lesson for other hosts
- The seaside market means extreme seasonality. In January occupancy averaged 9%, in July and August 88.7%. With such a gap, prices have to change together with demand. A fixed price list means either empty apartments in winter or an August sold too cheaply.
- Long weekends are a second, smaller season. When a portfolio of 300 apartments fills up within a few days, availability synchronisation across channels protects against overbooking exactly when the risk is highest.
- One inbox instead of several apps. 63.2% of bookings come from Booking.com and Airbnb. With over 10,000 bookings a year, replying to guests from one panel saves the team time every day.
- An own website works at large scale too. Every 8th booking comes through the booking engine on the website, and in total 27.8% of bookings avoid OTA commissions.
