Why do I suddenly have no bookings on AirBnB?

Mike S.
Posted

Hello,

I posted my property on AirBnB late December in Sedona, AZ. I got so many back to back bookings in the first couple of weeks, but the bookings suddenly dropped to zero. I have had no bookings since mid January. What is interesting is that my property is booked almost entire February and March which are off-season in Sedona but quite open in April and May which are peak-season.  I know that AirBnB posts new properties on the first page of search results for a while and then take it away but I did not expect no bookings in 30+ days. I called the customer service and they suggested me to activate instant booking. I did so a week ago but no change. I have also flexible cancellation policy. My house also has the "Guest Favorite" badge.

I did a general search as a guest and saw that my property showed up on the fourth page of results which I am not sure if it's too bad or not.

I also joined VRBO last week but no bookings yet.

Should I be worried? Is there anything else I need to do to boost my bookings?

Any suggestion is appreciated
