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 The New Forest: Bournemouth Air Festival over the seafront each late summer; the free-roaming ponies and ancient woodland of the New Forest; Beaulieu National Motor Museum and Buckler's Hard; the beaches of Bournemouth, Sandbanks and Lymington's yachting harbour. Guests I price for: Families and couples splitting time between forest cottages around Brockenhurst and Lyndhurst and beach flats in Bournemouth and Poole. Where I start: Running two linked demand curves, a rural New Forest cottage rate and an urban beach rate, and stacking air-festival and school-holiday premiums onto the coast.
I set up the pricing tool with you so beach flats carry air festival and summer premiums, forest cottages run on short breaks most of the year, and each type of home uses its own minimum stays across Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo.
The service in general is described on my airbnb pricing strategy page; this page covers how I apply it in The New Forest.
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.
“The New Forest and Bournemouth sit side by side but sell different stays. Forest cottages sell calm and ponies, Bournemouth sells beaches and the Air Festival in late summer. I run two linked curves and stack school-holiday and air-festival premiums on the coast.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Forest cottages attract walkers and couples on winter breaks, while beach flats go very quiet, so I keep the two calendars separate and price forest weekends more confidently.
Easter, the May bank holidays and the first warm weekends bring families to the coast, so I lift those dates and keep midweek forest breaks available for walkers and cyclists.
School holidays fill both areas, and the New Forest Show near Brockenhurst lifts late July, so I sell full weeks on the coast and price show week up in the forest.
The Bournemouth Air Festival packs the seafront, so I price beach flats near the pier and the East Cliff for that weekend and keep forest cottages on normal late-summer rates.
Autumn colour draws walkers into the forest, and Christmas breaks fill larger cottages, so I offer short stays and price the holiday weeks as fixed blocks.
Price Bournemouth Air Festival weekend as a coastal premium.
Use weekly summer stays for beach flats.
Price New Forest cottages on their own comps.
Offer short breaks in the forest year-round.

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 The New Forest. Lower December to February floors. Next: use weekly summer stays for beach flats.
Busiest in The New Forest: July and August for the beaches, with a September spike around the Bournemouth Air Festival. July to August: School holidays fill both areas, and the New Forest Show near Brockenhurst lifts late July, so I sell full weeks on the coast and price show week up in the forest. Late August to September: The Bournemouth Air Festival packs the seafront, so I price beach flats near the pier and the East Cliff for that weekend and keep forest cottages on normal late-summer rates. 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 The New Forest: December to February. October to December: Autumn colour draws walkers into the forest, and Christmas breaks fill larger cottages, so I offer short stays and price the holiday weeks as fixed blocks. January to March: Forest cottages attract walkers and couples on winter breaks, while beach flats go very quiet, so I keep the two calendars separate and price forest weekends more confidently.
Forest and coast priced from one comp set and air Festival ignored. I look for these first when I review Airbnb pricing strategy in The New Forest, 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 The New Forest behave differently. Bournemouth seafront and Boscombe: Beach flats close to the pier and promenade fill in summer and air festival weekend, so I price these firmly and accept quieter winters. Brockenhurst and Lyndhurst and Lymington and Beaulieu get their own treatment.
Beaulieu National Motor Museum and Buckler's Hard, the beaches of Bournemouth, Sandbanks and Lymington's yachting harbour and Bournemouth Air Festival over the seafront each late summer are the dates I price first for Airbnb pricing strategy in The New Forest. April to June: Easter, the May bank holidays and the first warm weekends bring families to the coast, so I lift those dates and keep midweek forest breaks available for walkers and cyclists.
For Airbnb pricing strategy in The New Forest, each channel gets its own markup, so the net rate you receive is the same wherever the booking comes from. The New Forest sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. April to June: Easter, the May bank holidays and the first warm weekends bring families to the coast, so I lift those dates and keep midweek forest breaks available for walkers and cyclists.
How the listing explains ponies, cattle and cycle routes in the forest, since guests value this information and it shapes expectations about driving and parking. 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.

The scope of Airbnb pricing strategy is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in The New Forest I would start from July to August: School holidays fill both areas, and the New Forest Show near Brockenhurst lifts late July, so I sell full weeks on the coast and price show week up in the forest.
