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 Zakopane: skiing and the FIS ski-jump World Cup at the Wielka Krokiew; the Tatra peaks, the Gubalowka ridge and the Kasprowy Wierch cable car; the Morskie Oko lake and Podhale Goral mountain culture; the shops and grilled oscypek cheese along Krupowki street. Guests I price for: Polish and central-European families and groups on week-long winter-ski and summer-hiking stays, concentrated near Krupowki and the trailheads. Where I start: Running a dual ski-and-hike season with sharp Christmas, New Year and school-holiday premiums, floor-pricing the two shoulders in Poland's busiest mountain resort.
I set up your pricing with Christmas, New Year, each regional school-holiday window and summer hiking weeks as separate bands. Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Expedia then share the same minimum stays and fees, so the calendar fills with the right length of stay.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Zakopane.
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.
“Zakopane is Poland's busiest mountain resort, with ski season, festive weeks and summer Tatra hiking. Polish families and groups stay a week, and the ski-jump World Cup adds a winter spike. I run a dual season with sharp holiday premiums.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Christmas, New Year's Eve and the start of the ski season fill every chalet, so I price the whole period as one block with week-long minimums and no late discounts.
Polish winter school holidays are staggered by region over several weeks, so I load each regional window and keep week-long stays for families who book well ahead.
Late snow and Easter bring some demand, so I price Easter and sunny ski weekends higher and accept shorter stays during the quieter weeks.
The May long weekend and Corpus Christi fill quickly with hikers, so I price those holidays individually and keep ordinary weekdays close to the floor.
Tatra hiking season and summer holidays fill the town again, so I price for week-long family stays and keep a premium on homes close to the trailheads.
Autumn colours bring some hikers in September, then November is quiet, so I set a careful floor and offer weekend breaks with the Bukowina thermal baths in mind.

Add the ski-jump World Cup weekend.

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% |

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.

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!

Busiest in Zakopane: December to February for skiing and the festive weeks, and July and August for Tatra hiking. July to August: Tatra hiking season and summer holidays fill the town again, so I price for week-long family stays and keep a premium on homes close to the trailheads. Late December to early January: Christmas, New Year's Eve and the start of the ski season fill every chalet, so I price the whole period as one block with week-long minimums and no late discounts. 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. Whether the calendar includes each region's ferie zimowe dates, because Polish winter school holidays are staggered and each window brings a fresh wave of family bookings.
Price Christmas, New Year and school holidays as top bands. Next: price July and August hiking weeks. For Airbnb revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Zakopane 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 Zakopane: April and November between the seasons. September to mid-December: Autumn colours bring some hikers in September, then November is quiet, so I set a careful floor and offer weekend breaks with the Bukowina thermal baths in mind. March to April: Late snow and Easter bring some demand, so I price Easter and sunny ski weekends higher and accept shorter stays during the quieter weeks.
Holiday weeks underpriced and summer ignored. I look for these first when I review Airbnb revenue management in Zakopane, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For Airbnb revenue management in Zakopane, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Zakopane sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and Expedia. March to April: Late snow and Easter bring some demand, so I price Easter and sunny ski weekends higher and accept shorter stays during the quieter weeks.
Near Gubałówka and the Wielka Krokiew: Close to the funicular and the ski jump; I add a premium on World Cup weekend and price the rest of winter for skiers. Krupówki and the centre and Kościelisko 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.
the shops and grilled oscypek cheese along Krupowki street, skiing and the FIS ski-jump World Cup at the Wielka Krokiew and the Tatra peaks, the Gubalowka ridge and the Kasprowy Wierch cable car are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue management in Zakopane. September to mid-December: Autumn colours bring some hikers in September, then November is quiet, so I set a careful floor and offer weekend breaks with the Bukowina thermal baths in mind.
