Pricing
This is the most important part of Johnrent. With a good price strategy the guests will find and book your object. You need to state a base price. We suggest that you state the base price equal to the high season price. When the base price is set you should go into the extended pricelist to select price per season, minimum amount of days to book per season, block your calendar for dates when you do not want to let out the object. If you forget to update the pricelist it is the base price which will be used.
Remember, the guest can send a booking request but it is always you who decide if you approve the booking request or not. This means that if you have stated the wrong price, there are no risk that a guest can book your vacation home. You should however ensure that your pricelist is up to date as a fair service to the guests.
Daily rate, state the base price per night e.g. 100
Weekly rate, state the base price per week e.g. 700
Currency, the currency which all prices are stated e.g €
Water price, state the price for water. E.g. 0.1 (unit = per qm3) (If “0” is stated, then the water is not charged. If you want the text “Free” to be displayed, then add “-1” as price.)
Electrical price, state the price for electricity. E.g. 0.2 (unit = per kW) (If “0” is stated, then the Electricity is not charged. If you want the text “Free” to be displayed, then add “-1” as price.)
Departure cleaning, if the guest can order cleaning by you, state the price for cleaning the object.
Bedclothing / set / week, if the guest can order bed linen by you, state the price per set and week. A good service is to write some information in the section “Arrival instruction” e.g. “To order bedclothing contact us no later than x days before arrival. Payment will be requested at arrival/departure”
