The challenge
- Capture bookings across the calendar without giving away rate: protect ADR and avoid unnecessary discounting.
The strategy
- Use demand-based pricing in PriceLabs with clear boundaries, connected to Hostaway.
What I did
- Managed pricing and revenue performance in PriceLabs and Hostaway.
- Configured a $690 base price, a $525 minimum and a $2,000 maximum to guide demand-based pricing.
Results

Hostaway owner statement
63%
occupancy, next 30 days
vs 35% for the market (PriceLabs, November 2026)
65–75%
estimated occupancy, July–October
Mary’s estimate across the reviewed calendars
- The 65–75% occupancy range is an estimate from reviewed calendars, not a platform report.
- Next-30-day occupancy is forward-looking: bookings on the books at the time of the screenshot.
What it means for the client
Bookings were spread across multiple weeks while pricing boundaries protected the nightly rate, rather than relying on discounts.
