Alaa Elhadi, an independent revenue management consultant, provides Google Vacation Rentals optimization for Airbnb hosts, vacation rental owners and property managers in Zaragoza, Spain, one to one, remotely and in Central European Time (UTC+1). In Zaragoza, I price Fiestas del Pilar (around 12 October) as the peak and January and July and August as the quiet time, and I build the work around that calendar. Google and TripAdvisor optimization is quoted per property after a short chat, because the scope depends on the number of properties and room types.

Google Vacation Rentals optimization is the work I do to make a property rank, convert and price correctly on Google Vacation Rentals. I check that your property appears with accurate rates, availability and content on Google Vacation Rentals and TripAdvisor, and that your direct link is the one travelers click.
What I plan around in Zaragoza: Fiestas del Pilar; Basilica del Pilar pilgrimage; AVE high-speed business travel; Aljaferia palace. Guests I price for: domestic Spanish visitors and business travellers on 1 to 3 night stays in the Casco Historico near the Basilica. Where I start: a single dominant October festival peak, midweek AVE business demand between Madrid and Barcelona, and Aragon VUT registration for holiday lets.
Zaragoza sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. I configure PriceLabs or Wheelhouse for a Zaragoza host with Pilar as a protected block, one-night stays opened in the hot months, and weekday pricing linked to the train corridor. Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo then all follow the same calendar instead of drifting apart.
The service in general is described on my other ota optimization page; this page covers how I apply it in Zaragoza.
I check what Google shows for your property and review the feed that supplies it through your channel manager.
I review the TripAdvisor listing so the property reads as well there as on your booking channels.
Your direct link should win when your rate is competitive. I align your site, rates and booking path with what Google and TripAdvisor show.
Each channel is mapped through your channel manager with explicit markups, and I check parity and availability after changes.
“Zaragoza has one dominant week, the Fiestas del Pilar in October, and steady AVE business travel between Madrid and Barcelona the rest of the year. Most guests are Spanish and stay briefly. I price Pilar firmly and keep midweeks tuned for business.”

After Reyes the city goes quiet, so I protect a modest floor, open single nights freely and lean on hospital, university and trade-fair visitors rather than chasing leisure guests who are simply not coming.
Semana Santa processions and the drum tradition lift Easter, and spring weekends sell to Spanish couples. I price those weekends up and keep Monday to Thursday tied to train-borne business demand.
The heat empties the old town, so I shorten minimum stays, accept one-night bookings and target families breaking a long drive to the coast or the Pyrenees.
Business travel returns after the holidays and conferences pick up, so I firm weekday rates again and keep the week before Pilar clear of cheap long stays that would block the festival.
The Ofrenda de Flores and the full festival week sit on their own calendar block, with a minimum stay, no last-minute discount and a check that cleaning crews are booked well ahead.
I use Christmas lights weekends, the Puente de la Constitucion and the December holidays as small weekend lifts, while keeping weekday rates realistic for corporate travellers.
Travelers often start on Google, and what it shows decides which platform they end up on. If your direct link is accurate and competitive it can win the booking before commission is involved, which is why I treat Google and TripAdvisor as part of the pricing job.
Price Fiestas del Pilar week as the top band with minimum stays.
Set midweek business rates for AVE travellers.
Price Casco Histórico homes near the Basilica higher.
Allow short stays outside Pilar.
Lower July, August and January floors.
A new Google Vacation Rentals listing
You have just connected Google Vacation Rentals 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 Vacation Rentals.
Commission without much return
You pay Google Vacation Rentals commission and its share of bookings is small next to your other channels.
A portfolio with uneven quality
Some listings are polished on Google Vacation Rentals and others were never finished, and nobody owns the standard.
Send me the Google Vacation Rentals listing or property links and your channel manager. I check how the property ranks and reads today before we speak.
A scorecard for Google Vacation Rentals: content, photos, rates and promotions, policies and reviews, with every fix ranked by impact.
I make the changes live on Zoom in your Google Vacation Rentals 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 Vacation Rentals and adjust what the numbers say to adjust.
I quote Google and TripAdvisor 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 and TripAdvisor optimization for one property | Quoted |
| Several properties | One scope and one price for a group on Google and TripAdvisor | Quoted |
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!

Busiest in Zaragoza: October for the Fiestas del Pilar, plus spring city-break weeks. Fiestas del Pilar (around 12 October): The Ofrenda de Flores and the full festival week sit on their own calendar block, with a minimum stay, no last-minute discount and a check that cleaning crews are booked well ahead.
Domestic Spanish visitors and business travellers on 1 to 3 night stays in the Casco Historico near the Basilica. Demand is driven by Fiestas del Pilar and Basilica del Pilar pilgrimage. For Google Vacation Rentals optimization, i write content and photo order on Google Vacation Rentals for the guests who actually search for Zaragoza.
For Google Vacation Rentals optimization, i write location content, photos and amenity highlights on Google Vacation Rentals around the specific part of Zaragoza the property is in. Romareda and the university area: Close to the stadium, the main hospital and the university, so I price for family visitors, academic weeks and match days rather than tourism. El Tubo and the Casco Historico and Delicias get their own treatment.
Allow short stays outside Pilar. Next: price Fiestas del Pilar week as the top band with minimum stays. For Google Vacation Rentals optimization, the first changes on Google Vacation Rentals are content completeness and the cover photo, because those decide whether a Zaragoza traveler clicks.
For Google Vacation Rentals optimization, i check this on Google Vacation Rentals first, because it decides whether the listing is allowed to rank at all.

Google and TripAdvisor optimization is quoted per property after a short chat, because the scope depends on the number of properties and room types. The scope of Google Vacation Rentals optimization is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in Zaragoza I would start from fiestas del Pilar (around 12 October): The Ofrenda de Flores and the full festival week sit on their own calendar block, with a minimum stay, no last-minute discount and a check that cleaning crews are booked well ahead. To start, open the chat or email me with your property type and size in Zaragoza.
