PRACTICAL GUIDE

Build a clear and convincing accommodation listing

A concrete example and a five-step method to help travelers understand your accommodation before they book.

Travelers should understand the essentials within seconds

A strong listing does not overpromise. It describes the actual spaces, sleeping arrangements, price, services and booking terms accurately.

  1. 01

    Choose a precise title

    State the accommodation type and its main benefit without piling up adjectives or writing in all caps.

  2. 02

    Show every space clearly

    Use recent, bright photographs that match the description and present the rooms in a logical order.

  3. 03

    Describe beds and capacity

    Separate beds, sofa beds, bedrooms and shared spaces so every traveler knows where they will sleep.

  4. 04

    Present prices, services and terms

    Explain what is included, free or paid, together with cancellation rules and any applicable tourist tax.

  5. 05

    Check the calendar and arrival details

    Keep availability, check-in and check-out times, address and practical instructions up to date before publishing.
