An Airbnb pricing strategy is the set of rules that decide what each night is worth: base, minimum and maximum prices, seasons, events, minimum stays, gap nights, last-minute pricing, length-of-stay discounts and channel markups. The tool applies the rules; the strategy is what makes the tool worth having. Smart Pricing is not a strategy, because it optimizes for Airbnb's fill rate and knows nothing about your events or other channels.
What I plan around in Bordeaux: Wine tourism in Saint-Émilion and the Médoc; Bordeaux Fête le Vin; Rugby and stadium concerts; Arcachon and Atlantic coast day trips. Guests I price for: European city-breakers and wine travellers on 3 to 4 night stays. Where I start: Harvest and festival premiums, and compliance with Bordeaux's primary-residence rules.
I set up your Bordeaux pricing inside PriceLabs or Wheelhouse with you: separate weekday and weekend logic, harvest weekends loaded as events, and minimum stays that stop a single Saturday night from blocking a three-night wine trip, with Abritel and Booking.com reading from the same plan.
The service in general is described on my airbnb pricing strategy page; this page covers how I apply it in Bordeaux.
I set the base from a real comp set, a minimum that protects your margin and a maximum that stops you underselling a peak night, listing by listing.
I build seasonal profiles and event premiums from the local calendar, so rates move before demand does and not after.
Minimum stays, gap and orphan nights and length-of-stay discounts are set to fill the calendar without discounting the whole month.
I configure OTA markups so your net rate is the same on Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo, and leave time to ask anything about pricing.
“Bordeaux is a wine city with festivals and a strong harvest season. Saint-Émilion and Médoc visitors stay a few nights, Bordeaux Fête le Vin brings crowds, and the city limits renting primary residences. I price harvest and festival weekends and keep within the limits.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
I keep Bordeaux winter rates honest and favour Saturday arrivals from Paris on the TGV, rather than burning permitted nights on wet weekdays that only sell at a deep discount.
Spring en primeur tastings and long May weekends bring wine trade and couples together, so I firm up Thursday to Sunday blocks and watch June for the riverside wine festival in the years it runs.
Many visitors split time with Arcachon and the Cap Ferret beaches, so I accept shorter city stays in summer and price for the weekday traveller passing through rather than a long beach week.
Picking season sends demand towards anything with easy access to the Right Bank châteaux, and I protect those weekends with a two or three night minimum and no early discounting.
I lean on concerts and rugby fixtures at the stadiums, and on Christmas city breaks, to hold weekend rates while letting midweek floors drift down.
Price harvest weekends in September as premiums.
Add Bordeaux Fête le Vin as an event premium.
Plan the primary-residence night limit around the best dates.
Add rugby and concert dates.
Lower November to February floors.

Real feedback from PriceLabs pricing strategy sessions with Alaa.
Alaa is a consummate professional! Patient, thorough, efficient and effective in communicating. He not only made savvy adjustments to my dynamic pricing strategy, but also helped me to understand the reasoning behind his methods, granting me a better understanding of the PriceLabs platform. Strong work!
Airbnb host
Alaa was fantastic, going through each of the properties I had and gave great advice and actioned a great game plan. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to enhance their pricing strategy on PriceLabs. Alaa's experience goes beyond this which makes it very beneficial to have this holistic approach.
Property manager
Alaa helped me optimize my PriceLabs settings for my Airbnb listing and was very helpful and patient with answering any questions I had. He was also able to clearly explain why he made the changes he made, and it was obvious that he had a lot of experience in this field. I will definitely be back!

For Airbnb pricing strategy, the first changes are base and minimum prices and the seasonal profile, since those drive most of the revenue in Bordeaux. Lower November to February floors. Next: add Bordeaux Fête le Vin as an event premium.
Busiest in Bordeaux: May to October, with Vinexpo, the wine festival in June and the harvest in September. July and August: Many visitors split time with Arcachon and the Cap Ferret beaches, so I accept shorter city stays in summer and price for the weekday traveller passing through rather than a long beach week. September and October: Picking season sends demand towards anything with easy access to the Right Bank châteaux, and I protect those weekends with a two or three night minimum and no early discounting. For Airbnb pricing strategy, the strategy I build sets seasonal profiles, event premiums and minimum-stay rules around these windows before they open for booking.
For Airbnb pricing strategy, for the quiet months I set the minimum price, last-minute and gap-night rules and length-of-stay discounts so nights fill without dropping below your floor. Quietest in Bordeaux: November to February. November and December: I lean on concerts and rugby fixtures at the stadiums, and on Christmas city breaks, to hold weekend rates while letting midweek floors drift down. January to March: I keep Bordeaux winter rates honest and favour Saturday arrivals from Paris on the TGV, rather than burning permitted nights on wet weekdays that only sell at a deep discount.
Nights used on low-demand dates and harvest ignored. I look for these first when I review Airbnb pricing strategy in Bordeaux, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For Airbnb pricing strategy, i set base prices and comp sets per area, with a separate profile where two parts of Bordeaux behave differently. Saint-Pierre and the Triangle d'Or: The postcard centre sells on location alone; I benchmark against boutique hotels around Place de la Bourse rather than against apartments further out. Chartrons and La Bastide (right bank) get their own treatment.
Rugby and stadium concerts, Arcachon and Atlantic coast day trips and Wine tourism in Saint-Émilion and the Médoc are the dates I price first for Airbnb pricing strategy in Bordeaux. April to June: Spring en primeur tastings and long May weekends bring wine trade and couples together, so I firm up Thursday to Sunday blocks and watch June for the riverside wine festival in the years it runs.
For Airbnb pricing strategy in Bordeaux, each channel gets its own markup, so the net rate you receive is the same wherever the booking comes from. Bordeaux sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Abritel. April to June: Spring en primeur tastings and long May weekends bring wine trade and couples together, so I firm up Thursday to Sunday blocks and watch June for the riverside wine festival in the years it runs.
How the listing describes tram access, since guests here compare homes by the A, B and C lines and by walking time to the quays and Saint-Jean station. For Airbnb pricing strategy, i check this before touching a single rate, because a base price built on the wrong assumption makes every rule worse.
PriceLabs and Wheelhouse strategy sessions are one-time and priced by listing count: $125 for up to 2 listings, $250 for 3 to 6, $370 for 7 to 10 and $480 for 11 to 15, with larger portfolios priced per listing. Revenuenaire Dynamic Pricing software is from $17.99 per listing per month. The scope of Airbnb pricing strategy is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in Bordeaux I would start from April to June: Spring en primeur tastings and long May weekends bring wine trade and couples together, so I firm up Thursday to Sunday blocks and watch June for the riverside wine festival in the years it runs. To start, open the chat or email me with your property type and size in Bordeaux.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Bordeaux the first gains from Airbnb pricing strategy usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: lower November to February floors. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
