Managing your Luxe calendar

Updating your calendar

Your calendar lets travelers know when your place is available and how much it costs to book per night. It is your responsibility to ensure that the availability and pricing of your place are accurately displayed on the calendar.

To mark dates as available or blocked:

Go to Calendar and select a listing
Select a date or multiple dates
Under Availability, select Available or Blocked
Click Save

Available dates on the calendar are white. Unavailable dates are gray when automatically blocked or have a slash if you've manually blocked them.

Access your Hosting dashboard

Note: When placing a hold on your calendar you should only block the dates where the night is unavailable. For example, if the check in date is 1/1/2023 and the check out date is 1/10/2023, the calendar should be blocked from 1/1/2023 to 1/9/2023.

Ways to view your calendar

When you access your “Calendar” page from the top navigation, you will start on our multi-calendar view. You can access a listing’s single calendar by clicking on a listing name.

Single home view

Each property has a single calendar where you can see an overview of the upcoming reservations, your personal input availability, and external syncs from other calendars. Your calendar will default to a scrollable month to month view.

Multi-home calendar view

This view is meant to make it easier to see your bookings across multiple homes. The multi-calendar view allows you to view all your homes across a certain date range. This view is meant to give hosts a clear overview of their calendars and more visibility into multiple events happening around the same time.

If you also manage listings that are on Airbnb’s marketplace, you can view the calendars for your marketplace and luxury listings separately, and manage your calendars more easily.

Year view

To get a long-term overview of any individual property calendar, select the Year view.

Learn why calendar dates may be blocked and how inquiries or pre-approvals affect availability.

You can block dates for any reason such as external reservations, maintenance or personal use. We recommend you add a note for yourself directly in your calendar. This is visible only to you.

Go to your calendar

Export calendar to other websites

Go to Calendar and select a listing.
Go to the side panel and click Availability
Scroll to Connect calendars
Click Connect to another website
Copy the other website's URL, then add to the other website’s calendar

Each website has a different place to paste the URL, and you may need to find that information in their help section. Learn how to import a calendar from VRBO, Booking.com, and Tripadvisor.

To import a calendar from other websites:

Once you have the URL ending in .ics from the other website, paste it in the field, “Step 2”.
Name the calendar (ex: “VRBO”).
Click Add calendar

To link calendars for multiple listings:

You can only link calendars for listings that have the same primary Host. Co-Hosts can't link calendars.

Go to Calendar and select the listing calendar you want
Click Availability, then go to Connected calendars
Click Link separate Airbnb calendars
Choose the main listing that contains your other listings
Click Continue
Select the listings you want to link
Click Save

Calendars are only linked between the listings you select.

Integrating with a Channel Manager

If you currently use a Channel Manager Software (CMS), and would like to leverage it to facilitate the updating of pricing and availability information for your Luxe listings, this may be possible. Go to Channel Manager Partners for more information.
