“Latvia is Riga plus Jūrmala. Riga sells Old Town and Art Nouveau city breaks all year with a summer peak, while Jūrmala is a beach resort with a short season and a local tourism levy. Midsummer (Jāņi) is a national highlight.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Latvia has no national nightly cap; accommodation providers register in the country's tourism accommodation database and meet fire-safety and guest-registration rules, and resort municipalities such as Jurmala apply a local tourism levy.
Rates are set in Euro (EUR) and priced for net revenue after channel fees. Channels: Booking.com, Airbnb and Vrbo.
The moves Alaa makes first when a hotel or host in Latvia books a session, and the errors he corrects most often. Every one is set up inside your own pricing tool, so it keeps working after the call.
Price Riga weekends and Jāņi as premiums.
Run Jūrmala as a summer-only market.
Include the Jūrmala tourism levy in pricing.

Riga weekends rely on city-break flights, so I hold Friday and Saturday floors and offer longer midweek stays rather than cutting nightly rates sharply.
Spring cruise calls and city breaks return, so I lift weekends step by step and open the summer calendar with confident rates.
Midsummer on 23 and 24 June is when Latvians head to the countryside, so I price coastal and rural homes highest and keep Riga rates steady.
Jūrmala and Riga peak together; I sell beach homes by the week and keep city stays short with weekend premiums.
I ease rates in autumn, add a premium around the 18 November independence celebrations and price Riga's Christmas market weekends firmly.
One person does the thinking on your account. Choose the kind of help your property in Latvia needs; everything is remote, 1-on-1 and scheduled in your time zone.
For Latvian owners I separate Riga, the coast and the countryside into their own calendars, add Jāņi, independence celebrations and Christmas markets, and check registration. You leave with a written plan that sends the right guests to each property in the months when they actually travel.
I configure PriceLabs or Wheelhouse for Latvian listings with Jāņi premiums, Jūrmala weekly rules, Riga weekend logic and Christmas market weekends. Airbnb and Booking.com are then aligned, so a guest from Tallinn, Stockholm or Berlin comparing both sites sees the same total and the same minimum stay.
For Riga hotels my five-star background helps with segmentation across cruise, conference and leisure guests, rate fences for summer weekends and careful group pricing for stag and corporate groups. I help you decide when to accept groups and when to keep rooms for individual travellers.
Each market in Latvia below has its own page with Alaa's notes on seasonality, events and how he would price it. Ask about any town or region not listed.

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.

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!
Airbnb host
Yes, a summer beach resort. Alaa prices it separately.
Yes, in the tourism accommodation database.
It is busier in the countryside than in the city. Many Latvians leave Riga to celebrate Jāņi outdoors, so rural and coastal homes see the strongest demand. I price those homes highest for the holiday and keep Riga rates steady, since visitor demand there is good but not extreme.
Yes, when it takes place it brings large numbers of performers and visitors to Riga. It does not happen every year, so I watch the official dates and price those weeks as major events with minimum stays once they are confirmed.
Yes. Alaa works 1-on-1 with hotels, resorts, serviced apartments, Airbnb hosts and property management companies throughout Latvia, remotely, with no minimum or maximum portfolio size.
