Booking.com optimization for rentals is the work I do to make a property rank, convert and price correctly on Booking.com. I audit the listing, complete the content score, tune photos, rate plans, deals and policies, and make the changes with you on Zoom.
What I plan around in Lombok: Bali overflow and surf season in Kuta Lombok; Gili island travel; MotoGP at Mandalika; Diving and Rinjani trekking. Guests I price for: European and Australian travellers on 4 to 7 night stays. Where I start: Dry-season premiums, event weeks, and rainy-season floors.
Lombok sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Agoda. On Airbnb, Booking.com and Agoda I set up PriceLabs or Wheelhouse with dry-season bands, MotoGP premiums and rainy-season floors, and I make sure the listing explains boats, roads and transfers, because clear access information often decides whether guests book four nights or seven.
The service in general is described on my booking.com listing optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in Lombok.
Booking.com scores how complete a listing is. I fill the fields, rewrite descriptions for the guests who book there and tidy room details.
I choose the cover and order the gallery against the nearest competing listings.
I structure rate plans and judge which promotions and Genius levels pay for themselves.
Cancellation terms and review scores feed ranking, so I tune both and write reply templates.
“Lombok is growing as a calmer alternative to Bali, with surf in Kuta Lombok, the Gili Islands and the Mandalika MotoGP circuit. MotoGP weekend is the standout event. Guests stay four to seven nights and often combine several areas. Access between the Gilis, Kuta Lombok and the airport takes planning, so clear travel information helps guests commit to longer stays.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Rain and rough crossings to the Gilis slow travel, so I lower floors, offer longer stay value for surfers and remote workers, and keep cancellation terms flexible.
Dry weather returns and Rinjani trekking reopens, so I raise rates step by step and target couples combining Lombok with a Bali trip.
European summer holidays and surf season fill Kuta Lombok and the Gilis, so I set four or five night minimums and stop discounting early.
MotoGP weekend at Mandalika is the top event, so I price it far above surrounding dates and keep the rest of the period strong for divers and surfers.
Christmas and New Year bring Australians and Europeans, so I price the holiday week as a premium with longer minimums, especially on Gili Trawangan.
Many hosts connect Booking.com once and never return, then wonder why it brings so little. The channel rewards completeness and price position, and it reaches guests who never open Airbnb. I fix the listing and tie its rates to your pricing strategy.
Price MotoGP Mandalika weekend as the top band.
Price July to August and December to January as main seasons.
Price Gili Islands homes around boat access.
Target surfers in Kuta Lombok.
Lower February and March floors.
A new Booking.com listing
You have just connected Booking.com and want it to rank and convert from the first weeks, not after months of guessing.
Views but few bookings
Visibility looks fine and conversion does not, which usually means content, photos or rate plans on Booking.com.
Commission without much return
You pay Booking.com commission and its share of bookings is small next to your other channels.
A portfolio with uneven quality
Some listings are polished on Booking.com and others were never finished, and nobody owns the standard.
Send me the Booking.com listing or property links and your channel manager. I check how the property ranks and reads today before we speak.
A scorecard for Booking.com: content, photos, rates and promotions, policies and reviews, with every fix ranked by impact.
I make the changes live on Zoom in your Booking.com account or through your channel manager, and explain each one so you can maintain it.
Step 4
About 30 days later I look at impressions, conversion and booking share on Booking.com and adjust what the numbers say to adjust.
Booking.com optimization has three fixed-price plans, priced by listing count, from $95. Each is a live Zoom session with a full audit and the fixes made on the spot.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Single | 1 listing, 30-minute session | $95 |
| Portfolio | 2 to 4 listings, 45-minute session | $145 |
| Scale | 5 to 8 listings, 60-minute session | $245 |
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!
