In this Host Planet Bitesize episode, Frank Bosi from Hostfully shares essential insights on optimising your Airbnb listing to drive direct bookings and enhance the guest experience.

Discover quick wins that truly move the needle on revenue management and elevate your vacation rentals to new heights. Great photos get the click, but a fully optimised listing, smart pricing strategies, and the right tech stack convert those clicks into stays.

Key takeaways:

Nail the click-to-book journey. Photos earn attention, but headlines and first lines sell the stay. Write a clear, benefit-led title, a compelling, scannable description, and showcase high-impact amenities.

Use your tools to compound results. Optimise and actually use your tech stack – PMS, channel manager, and digital guidebooks – to automate messaging, surface amenities, and keep pricing tight.

Keep it fresh and guest-friendly. Refresh copy, photos, and availability regularly, and consider long-stay discounts to boost conversion and occupancy. Consistency wins more than one-off tweaks.
