Seasons allow you to set specific prices and restrictions for certain times of the year, such as:
Christmas
Easter
High season
Long weekends and holidays
This gives you more flexibility to adjust prices based on demand.
Where and how are the seasons configured?
Go to the My Accommodations menu and select the property you want to edit.
Go to the Rates tab.
From here, you can create, edit, copy, or delete seasons.
📌 Access to the seasons depending on the type of accommodation:
If your accommodation has a full setup, you'll find the Seasons section directly in the Rates tab.
If your accommodation has partial configuration, go to the accommodation page → go to Units & Rates → click on the Rates button for each unit to manage the seasons.

How to create a season?
Click the Create Season button.
Give it an identifying name (e.g., Summer 2025 or Christmas).
Select the date period in which to apply it.
Configure, only if necessary, restrictions such as:
Day of arrival/departure, Minimum stay, Force weekend.
Click Save
Important:
You can create as many seasons as you want, but they can't overlap.
Example: If you have a season from January 1 to January 10, you can't create another season from January 5 to January 6.
Remember to also configure the price per additional person for each season (it automatically synchronizes with bookings from the booking engine and with Booking in Full Sync mode).
How to copy seasons?
You can copy seasons from one property to another or replicate them for the next year.
On the Rates tab, click on "Copy to others".
A window will open to choose whether to:
Copy seasons from one year to the next in the same property.
Copy seasons from one property to another.
Select the desired option and click Duplicate.
How to delete seasons?
Go to the Seasons section, within the Rates tab.
Select the season you want to delete.
Click on the trash can icon to delete it.
You can select them all by clicking the tick at the top next to the tooth and then delete them all at once
How to manage days off between seasons?
As bookings come in, isolated days off may remain that do not comply with the restrictions of the main seasons (e.g. minimum stay).
To keep your accommodation bookable on these dates, you can create a specific season for days off
Advantages:
Receive bookings even on dates that would otherwise remain blocked.
Adapt conditions such as minimum stay, day of arrival/departure or specific prices.
Important:
It is not possible to overlap seasons: it will be necessary to divide the main season into two parts to insert the new one.
Practical example:
Main season: 01/08 – 31/08 with a minimum stay of 5 nights.
After some reservations, only the nights of 10, 11 and 12 August remain free.
Solution:
Edit the main season: 01/08 – 09/08.
Create a new season: 13/08 – 31/08 with the same conditions.
Create a "free days" season: 10/08 – 12/08 with a minimum stay of 2-3 nights.
📌 If you're on a Standard or Pro plan, you can manage your days off between seasons with the rate calendar
How do you manage bookings that span multiple seasons?
When a traveler books, the dates may fall into multiple seasons.
In AvaiBook you can decide the management mode according to your business model.
Where to set it up?
Go to Accommodations > My Accommodations.
Select the property.
Access the Options tab
In the seasons section, choose one of the 3 available ways.
Click Save.
📌 This configuration applies to bookings made by the AvaiBook booking engine and Rentalia.
