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 Ericeira: Ericeira World Surfing Reserve; Nazare big-wave season at Praia do Norte; Peniche surf breaks; Obidos walled town and festivals. Guests I price for: surfers and coastal travellers on 4 to 7 night stays in Ericeira, Peniche and the villages of the Costa de Prata. Where I start: a near year-round surf calendar that fills the winter big-wave months, AL registration along the Silver Coast, and swell-driven pricing rather than a simple summer peak.
I set up your pricing so surf season, summer weeks and festival dates sit in separate bands, with weekly and monthly offers for surfers and remote workers. Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Expedia all share the same rules and AL details.
The service in general is described on my airbnb pricing strategy page; this page covers how I apply it in Ericeira.
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.
“Ericeira and the Silver Coast are surf markets, which makes them almost year-round. Summer brings beach families, while October to March brings the Nazaré big-wave season and serious surfers. The quiet gap is spring. I price by swell season as much as by summer.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Big-wave swells at Nazaré and solid winter surf in Ericeira bring surfers and spectators, so I keep surf-season rates firm and offer weekly stays rather than cutting to a winter floor.
The quiet weeks between surf and beach seasons are my focus for longer-stay offers, so I add weekly and monthly discounts and target remote workers and surf schools.
Beach families from Lisbon and abroad fill the coast, so I price weekends and summer holiday weeks firmly and set four to seven-night minimums near the best beaches.
The swell season returns and the Nazaré tow-surfing challenge can be called at short notice, so I keep some flexibility and lift prices when a big swell is forecast.

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.

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 Ericeira. Keep AL registration current. Next: price October to March for surf visitors, especially near Nazaré.
Busiest in Ericeira: June to September for the beaches and October to March for the Nazare big-wave swells. June to September: Beach families from Lisbon and abroad fill the coast, so I price weekends and summer holiday weeks firmly and set four to seven-night minimums near the best beaches. October to December: The swell season returns and the Nazaré tow-surfing challenge can be called at short notice, so I keep some flexibility and lift prices when a big swell is forecast. 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 Ericeira: the quiet weeks of April and May between the surf and beach seasons. April to May: The quiet weeks between surf and beach seasons are my focus for longer-stay offers, so I add weekly and monthly discounts and target remote workers and surf schools.
Winter treated as off-season despite surf demand and all surf towns priced from one comp set. I look for these first when I review Airbnb pricing strategy in Ericeira, 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 Ericeira behave differently. Peniche and Baleal: Supertubos and the Baleal peninsula draw surfers and surf camps; I price for longer surf stays and add premiums during major competition weeks. Ericeira and Nazaré and Óbidos get their own treatment.
Peniche surf breaks, Obidos walled town and festivals and Ericeira World Surfing Reserve are the dates I price first for Airbnb pricing strategy in Ericeira. January to March: Big-wave swells at Nazaré and solid winter surf in Ericeira bring surfers and spectators, so I keep surf-season rates firm and offer weekly stays rather than cutting to a winter floor.
For Airbnb pricing strategy in Ericeira, each channel gets its own markup, so the net rate you receive is the same wherever the booking comes from. Ericeira sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Expedia. January to March: Big-wave swells at Nazaré and solid winter surf in Ericeira bring surfers and spectators, so I keep surf-season rates firm and offer weekly stays rather than cutting to a winter floor.
How the calendar reacts to big swell forecasts and events like the Nazaré tow-surfing challenge, since those dates can be announced with only days of notice. 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.

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 Ericeira I would start from January to March: Big-wave swells at Nazaré and solid winter surf in Ericeira bring surfers and spectators, so I keep surf-season rates firm and offer weekly stays rather than cutting to a winter floor.

Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number.
