Troubleshooting a Discrepancy Between the Calendar and Listing's Availability

Note:

If you are using a smart pricing tool, check your availability settings as they may override changes you make in Guesty For Hosts.

The calendar displays the availability settings in your Guesty For Hosts listing's Advance Notice and Availability Window. Please note the following, which is explained in more detail here.

  • If you open up days outside the availability window, your channel calendars will present these dates as available, while the Guesty For Hosts calendar remains blocked based on the listing settings. 
  • If you open up days within the advance notice time, your channel calendars will present these dates as available, while the Guesty For Hosts calendar remains blocked based on the listing settings.

  • Same day advance notice is not reflected in the Guesty For Hosts calendar. Learn more about this setting on each connected channel here.
If a discrepancy falls outside these scenarios, it is most likely due to manual changes made in the calendar. You can refresh the default availability for the affected dates by following the steps below.
