Not getting many bookings.. Please help!

Hi all,

I have a 4 bedroom STR in Indio, CA. I listed it on Airbnb and VRBO about a month ago from today. So far I've gotten one booking that has already happened and two future bookings. Other than that: crickets. I have great photos (clear, bright, well positioned), it's in a great area where people love going to for Coachella and Stage Coach music festivals, there's a beautiful pool and hot tub with lounge chairs, I have Instant Booking on both Airbnb and VRBO, I have nice furniture and decorations, and I have the nightly prices slightly below my competitors. I know that this market has seasonality but I didn't think it would be this bad. Any advice to get more bookings?

Thank you,

Gulliver
