Overview

What is Airbnb revenue management in Myrtle Beach?

Airbnb revenue management is the ongoing work of pricing every night, setting stay rules, managing channels and reporting results. It goes further than a pricing tool: I review the strategy as demand, events and your own pace change, and I explain every change I make.

What I plan around in Myrtle Beach: Summer beach season; Golf packages in spring and autumn; Bike weeks in May; Carolina Country Music Fest. Guests I price for: Drive-to families on 5 to 7 night stays, golf groups midweek in the shoulder seasons. Where I start: Summer weekly pricing, golf-group midweek strategies, and deep winter floors with reduced minimum stays.

For Myrtle Beach hosts I set up PriceLabs or Wheelhouse with Saturday changeovers in summer, golf-group midweek rules, festival and bike week dates, and monthly snowbird pricing for winter, all benchmarked against comparable units in the same building and refreshed as the season's pace becomes clear.

The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Myrtle Beach.

Consultant's view

Alaa's take on Myrtle Beach

“Myrtle Beach is a volume market with a sharp summer peak and a surprisingly useful golf season on either side. Families drive in for summer weeks, while golf groups book midweek in spring and autumn. Winter is deep, so the pricing job is about capturing summer fully and building enough shoulder revenue to carry the quiet months.”

How I price it

My Myrtle Beach calendar, and what I do in each period

  1. January and FebruaryLow

    Canadian and northern snowbirds book monthly stays, so I set a monthly rate card for oceanfront condos and keep nightly floors low enough to catch weekend visitors.

  2. March to MayShoulder

    Can-Am Days, spring break, golf trips and the SOS Spring Safari bring different guests, so I price each block separately and add bike week rules in mid-May.

  3. June to AugustPeak

    The summer weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest are the core of the year, so I set Saturday changeovers for family homes and keep oceanfront rates firm until the final days.

  4. September and OctoberShoulder

    Golf groups, the World Amateur Handicap Championship and the SOS Fall Brawl fill midweeks and weekends, so I price for groups and shorten stays as summer families leave.

  5. November and DecemberLow

    Thanksgiving and Christmas carry a few strong weeks, so I price those dates individually and then move to monthly offers for the early winter snowbirds.

Where I price differently in Myrtle Beach

North Myrtle Beach and Cherry Grove
Quieter family beaches and shag-dancing weekends; I price for weekly family stays in summer and add the SOS weekends as premiums.
Central Myrtle Beach and the Boardwalk
Close to the SkyWheel and nightlife, these condos attract younger groups and couples; I price weekends firmly and use midweek offers in the shoulder months.
Surfside Beach, Garden City and Murrells Inlet
Family-oriented, with the MarshWalk nearby; I price homes for weekly stays and slightly below central Myrtle Beach, with strong July weeks.

What I check first in Myrtle Beach

  • Whether the condo resort or HOA allows short stays and what fees it charges, because many Grand Strand buildings have their own rules and costs that change how we can price.
  • How the unit is described against others in the same tower: oceanfront, ocean view, floor level and balcony, since guests compare units side by side within one resort.
  • Whether the city or county business licence and accommodations tax are in place, because Horry County and the beach towns each collect their own taxes on short stays.
Pricing playbook

5 pricing moves, and 3 mistakes, in Myrtle Beach

  1. 1

    Price June to August on weekly stays, with Memorial Day and July 4th weeks as the top bands.

  2. 2

    Target golf groups with midweek pricing and 3 to 4-night stays in April, May, September and October.

  3. 3

    Add bike weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest as date premiums.

Busiest in Myrtle Beach: June to August, with Memorial Day and July 4th, and golf shoulder seasons in April to May and September to October. June to August: The summer weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest are the core of the year, so I set Saturday changeovers for family homes and keep oceanfront rates firm until the final days.

What do you check first on a Myrtle Beach property when it comes to Airbnb revenue management?

Whether the condo resort or HOA allows short stays and what fees it charges, because many Grand Strand buildings have their own rules and costs that change how we can price.

Price June to August on weekly stays, with Memorial Day and July 4th weeks as the top bands. Next: add bike weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest as date premiums. For Airbnb revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Myrtle Beach property usually leaks the most.

What do you do in Myrtle Beach's quiet months?

November and December: Thanksgiving and Christmas carry a few strong weeks, so I price those dates individually and then move to monthly offers for the early winter snowbirds.
