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 Medellín: Feria de las Flores; Christmas lights (Alumbrados); Digital-nomad demand in El Poblado and Laureles; Conference travel. Guests I price for: US and European remote workers on 1 to 3 month stays, and short-stay leisure visitors. Where I start: Monthly discount ladders, event premiums in August and December, and unit positioning inside dense El Poblado supply.
I set up your Airbnb and Booking.com pricing with a monthly discount ladder for remote workers, event blocks for the Feria and December and a July premium for Colombiamoda. I also tighten titles and photos so the listing stands apart from neighbouring units at the same price.
The service in general is described on my airbnb pricing strategy page; this page covers how I apply it in Medellín.
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.
“Medellín is one of Latin America's biggest nomad hubs, and El Poblado and Laureles are crowded with similar apartments. Monthly stays carry much of the year, while Feria de las Flores and the December Alumbrados bring short-stay peaks. Colombia requires registration in the RNT tourism register.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Dry weather and North American winter escapes keep El Poblado busy, so I hold weekends and use monthly terms for remote workers arriving for the season.
Easter brings domestic visitors, then the April and May rains thin leisure travel. I price Holy Week higher and lean on monthly stays through the wet stretch.
Colombiamoda at Plaza Mayor brings buyers and the fashion crowd in July, so I add a premium that week and keep mid-year holiday weekends firm.
Feria de las Flores and the Silleteros parade fill the city, so I price the festival as its own block with a three or four night minimum.
October rains and fewer events make this the quietest stretch, so I set monthly ladders, protect the floor and highlight workspace and internet.
The Alumbrados along the river and family visits lift demand, so I raise December weekends and price Christmas and New Year as premium nights.

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 Medellín. Highlight workspace and internet quality. Next: price Feria de las Flores and December as short-stay peaks.
Busiest in Medellín: Feria de las Flores in August, December holidays, and the January to February dry season. Early August: Feria de las Flores and the Silleteros parade fill the city, so I price the festival as its own block with a three or four night minimum. December: The Alumbrados along the river and family visits lift demand, so I raise December weekends and price Christmas and New Year as premium nights. 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 Medellín: April to May and October. September to November: October rains and fewer events make this the quietest stretch, so I set monthly ladders, protect the floor and highlight workspace and internet. March to May: Easter brings domestic visitors, then the April and May rains thin leisure travel. I price Holy Week higher and lean on monthly stays through the wet stretch.
Nightly pricing only in a nomad market and unregistered listings. I look for these first when I review Airbnb pricing strategy in Medellín, 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 Medellín behave differently. Envigado: Calmer and more local just south of El Poblado; I price below Provenza and target remote workers and families on longer stays. Provenza and Manila and Laureles around La 70 and Primer Parque get their own treatment.
Digital-nomad demand in El Poblado and Laureles, Conference travel and Feria de las Flores are the dates I price first for Airbnb pricing strategy in Medellín. September to November: October rains and fewer events make this the quietest stretch, so I set monthly ladders, protect the floor and highlight workspace and internet.
For Airbnb pricing strategy in Medellín, each channel gets its own markup, so the net rate you receive is the same wherever the booking comes from. Medellín sells mostly through Airbnb and Booking.com. September to November: October rains and fewer events make this the quietest stretch, so I set monthly ladders, protect the floor and highlight workspace and internet.
Whether the building allows short stays and what the administración charges for guest registration, since rules differ widely between towers in El Poblado. 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 Medellín I would start from January to February: Dry weather and North American winter escapes keep El Poblado busy, so I hold weekends and use monthly terms for remote workers arriving for the season. To start, open the chat or email me with your property type and size in Medellín.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Medellín the first gains from Airbnb pricing strategy usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: highlight workspace and internet quality. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
