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 Puerto Vallarta: US and Canadian snowbirds; Sayulita and Punta Mita surf and luxury demand; Semana Santa domestic travel; LGBTQ+ travel and Pride. Guests I price for: North American couples on 5 to 7 night stays, snowbirds on monthly stays. Where I start: Monthly winter rate cards, holiday premiums, and rainy-season floors.
I set up your pricing tool with monthly winter rates reviewed every year, holiday minimums for Christmas and Easter, a Pride week premium in the Zona Romántica and a firm autumn floor, keeping Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com and Expedia aligned on rates, rules and taxes.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Puerto Vallarta.
I review demand and pace and make two or three price changes a week where the market calls for them, inside the tool you already use.
On Plus I also optimize listings, plan promotions, track competitor rates per listing and manage Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo together.
A monthly summary on every plan and a full ADR, occupancy and RevPAR report on Plus and Pro, so you see what changed and why.
On Pro I forecast demand, keep a 12-month pricing calendar, meet you monthly and review quarterly, and I set launch prices for new listings.
“Puerto Vallarta mixes snowbirds on monthly stays with holiday visitors, while Sayulita and Punta Mita sell surf and luxury. It is also one of Mexico's most important LGBTQ+ destinations. Semana Santa brings domestic travellers. Returning winter guests often book the same place every year, so reviewing monthly rates before renewals keeps pricing in line with the market.”

Snowbirds return and US Thanksgiving fills homes, so I confirm monthly winter rates early and keep the nightly rate firm for the weeks just before Christmas.
I hold the highest rates with a seven night minimum, especially in Conchas Chinas and the Zona Romántica, where returning guests compete with first-time holiday visitors.
Monthly guests fill much of the season, so I price the remaining open nights by week, then build Semana Santa as a separate band for Mexican families heading to the beach.
Vallarta Pride in May gets its own premium in the Zona Romántica; the rest of early summer suits shorter stays and domestic weekend travellers from Guadalajara.
Heat, humidity and storm risk thin demand, so I keep a cost-covering floor, loosen minimum stays and prepare monthly winter rates for the next snowbird season.

One listing and no time
You want pricing handled properly without checking the calendar every day.
A growing portfolio
You manage several listings and need one consistent, scalable method.
A property manager
You want owner-ready reporting and revenue leadership without an in-house hire.
Smart Pricing is not enough
Airbnb's own tool optimizes for Airbnb's fill rate, not your revenue across channels.
Send the listing links, your pricing tool and your goals. I confirm the plan level and the monthly price for your listing count.
I build the base, minimum and maximum prices, seasons, events and stay rules for your market before the first month starts.
I watch demand and pace and move prices and restrictions as the market does.
Step 4
You get the monthly report, and on Pro we meet, and I adjust the plan from the results.
Priced monthly by listing count on a graduated curve, so there are no tier cliffs. Plus adds 35 percent and Pro 75 percent to the Core price. Never a percentage of revenue.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Core | Managed pricing, run for you every day | From $225/mo |
| Plus | Pricing plus listing and channel optimization | Core +35% |
| Pro | Full revenue management with a monthly strategy call | Core +75% |

Busiest in Puerto Vallarta: November to April, with Christmas to New Year and Semana Santa the highest. January to April: Monthly guests fill much of the season, so I price the remaining open nights by week, then build Semana Santa as a separate band for Mexican families heading to the beach. November to mid-December: Snowbirds return and US Thanksgiving fills homes, so I confirm monthly winter rates early and keep the nightly rate firm for the weeks just before Christmas. For Airbnb revenue management, i raise floors and tighten minimum stays ahead of these windows and review pace every week, so the strongest dates never sell early at a shoulder rate.
For Airbnb revenue management, that is the first thing I check before taking on the pricing, because everything else sits on top of it. When the returning winter guests last saw a rate change, because many snowbirds rebook the same unit every year and old rates quietly fall behind the market.
Build monthly winter rates for snowbirds. Next: price Sayulita and Punta Mita separately. For Airbnb revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Puerto Vallarta property usually leaks the most.
For Airbnb revenue management, in the quiet months my job is to protect the floor, close gaps with length-of-stay and last-minute rules, and keep the property visible on every channel. Quietest in Puerto Vallarta: August to October. August to October: Heat, humidity and storm risk thin demand, so I keep a cost-covering floor, loosen minimum stays and prepare monthly winter rates for the next snowbird season. May to July: Vallarta Pride in May gets its own premium in the Zona Romántica; the rest of early summer suits shorter stays and domestic weekend travellers from Guadalajara.
Snowbird demand ignored and sayulita priced like Vallarta. I look for these first when I review Airbnb revenue management in Puerto Vallarta, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For Airbnb revenue management in Puerto Vallarta, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Puerto Vallarta sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com and Expedia. August to October: Heat, humidity and storm risk thin demand, so I keep a cost-covering floor, loosen minimum stays and prepare monthly winter rates for the next snowbird season.
Bucerías: A calmer beach town across the bay in Riviera Nayarit; I position it for families and snowbirds who want space, priced below Sayulita and Punta Mita. Zona Romántica and Conchas Chinas get their own treatment. For Airbnb revenue management, i set rates, comp sets and restrictions per area and per room or listing type, not as one citywide number.
LGBTQ+ travel and Pride, US and Canadian snowbirds and Sayulita and Punta Mita surf and luxury demand are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue management in Puerto Vallarta. January to April: Monthly guests fill much of the season, so I price the remaining open nights by week, then build Semana Santa as a separate band for Mexican families heading to the beach.
