Google Hotel Ads optimization is the work I do to make a property rank, convert and price correctly on Google. I set up your Google Business Profile, free booking links and Hotel Ads, and make sure your direct booking path is competitive.
What I plan around in Sedona: Spring and autumn hiking season; Wellness and retreat travel; Grand Canyon road-trippers; Holiday-week demand. Guests I price for: Couples and small groups from Phoenix, California and beyond on 2 to 4 night stays. Where I start: Two shoulder-season peaks, weekend premiums, and view and hot-tub positioning against a dense casita supply.
Sedona sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com. Sedona resorts and boutique hotels sell wellness, views and hiking. My five-star hotel background helps with spa package pricing, wedding and retreat groups, weekend length-of-stay controls and a comp set divided between Uptown, West Sedona and the Village of Oak Creek.
The service in general is described on my google hotel ads optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in Sedona.
Your profile is often the first thing a traveler sees. I complete it, correct the details and keep rates and availability accurate.
Free booking links cost nothing to appear in. I set them up, then judge whether paid Hotel Ads are worth it for your hotel.
A click only helps if the booking path converts. I review your site and engine against the OTAs and fix what loses the guest.
Reviews on these sites travel with the property. I set up a routine to collect and answer them consistently.
“Sedona has two peaks, spring and autumn, instead of one summer season, and a very dense supply of casitas and small homes competing on views and hot tubs. Guests are mostly couples on short stays, often driving from Phoenix or California. The difference between a well-priced and a poorly priced listing here usually comes down to weekends and features.”

Cold nights and occasional snow on the red rocks bring photographers and couples; I offer weekly rates and keep weekends modest, with Martin Luther King weekend as an exception.
The Sedona Marathon and the Sedona International Film Festival bring early visitors, and Valentine's weekend sells well, so I lift those dates and keep other nights flexible.
Spring break, Easter and perfect hiking weather make weekends hard to find; I keep two-night minimums and lift hot-tub and view homes above standard casitas.
Heat and monsoon storms slow hikers, so I target Phoenix residents escaping the valley heat with weekend offers and price weekdays for road-trippers heading to the Grand Canyon.
Cooler days and autumn colour in Oak Creek Canyon bring the second peak; I keep weekend rates firm and lift Thanksgiving week as its own band.
Christmas and New Year sell as a holiday block for couples and families, so I raise those nights and keep earlier December weekends priced for festive getaways.
Google shows your hotel, your rates and your OTAs side by side, and the direct link only wins if it is accurate and competitive. A modest amount of careful setup here is the cheapest way I know to move bookings off commission-heavy channels.
Price March to May and September to November as the main seasons, with weekend premiums.

A new Google listing
You have just connected Google 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 Google.
Commission without much return
You pay Google commission and its share of bookings is small next to your other channels.
A portfolio with uneven quality
Some listings are polished on Google and others were never finished, and nobody owns the standard.
Send me the Google listing or property links and your channel manager. I check how the property ranks and reads today before we speak.
A scorecard for Google: content, photos, rates and promotions, policies and reviews, with every fix ranked by impact.
I make the changes live on Zoom in your Google 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 Google and adjust what the numbers say to adjust.
I quote Google Hotel Ads optimization per property after a short chat. You get a fixed scope and price before any work starts.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Single property | Google Hotel Ads optimization for one property | Quoted |
