Availability Calendar Management lets you maintain availability calendars for your VacationPads easily and conveniently. With the Availability Calendar Management service, you maintain availability calendars for your VacationPads listings directly through the VacationPads.com website. Since VacationPads is a full-service, integrated site, you will not have to leave the VacationPads.com website to update and maintain availability calendars, and your potential renters will not have to leave our site to view availability for your VacationPads.
By maintaining availability calendars for your VacationPads, your listing experience is enhanced in the following ways:
|
- An availability calendar is displayed directly on your VacationPad's "Rates and Availability" page. Potential renters will be able to view availability for current and future months.
- As a convenience measure, potential renters will have the ability to check availability by entering rental dates directly on a form available on your listing's "Rates and Availability" page so they do not have to scroll through your availability calendar to find what they're looking for.
- Your potential renters will know exactly when your property is available so you do not receive unnecessary inquiries.
- Displaying your VacationPad's availability adds a feel of extra professionalism and convenience
|
|
Of course, if your package includes Availability Calendar Management and you choose not to display this information on your property's listing, you have the option to disable publication of the Availability Calendar in your member section. Even when your property's availability is not published, you will still have the ability to make updates to the calendar. In this case, only you will be able to view your property's availability; site visitors will not see any Availability Calendar on your listing's "Rate Information" page.

For any business, it is extremely important to maintain an accurate record of all correspondence with the customer. The Reservation Management System allows you to enter details for all your rentals, including renter contact information, dates, rates quoted and notes. When you correspond with the renters, you can record the content of your conversations as they happen to help eliminate potential misunderstandings in the future. The Reservation Management System will also alert you if you try to book rentals with overlapping dates.

Suppose a renter contacts you requiring information about their rental. Instead of flipping through stacks of paper trying to find what you're looking for, quickly access their reservation online in the Reservation Management System using the reservation search feature. You can search for reservations based on a number of criteria, including payments/outstanding balances status!
|
|
 |
 |
|
Maintain an accurate log of all payments received and refunded. You also have the ability to enter notes along with each payment. As payments are entered, the outstanding balance on reservations is automatically calculated so you can always keep track of which rentals are paid-in-full and which are not.
|
|
 |
 |
|
The Reservation Management System includes a reporting engine to help you understand how well your business is performing.
|
- The Occupancy Report calculates the occupancy rate for your properties over a given period of time.
- The Rates Summary Report summarizes the amounts charged for your reservations during a given time period, and breaks the amounts down into base amounts, taxes and cleaning/other fees.
- The Payments Summary Report summarizes the total amount of your payments credited and refunds issued over a given period of time.

|
All listing packages that include the Reservation Management System also include Availability Calendar Management. As a preference, you can choose to keep your availability calendars automatically synchronized with the reservations you enter into the Reservation Management System. Whether you enter new reservations into the system or cancel existing reservations, your availability calendars will always reflect the reservations you store in the Reservation Management System.
|
|
 |
 |
|
Whether you're on vacation or away from your home, the Reservation Management System is always at your fingertips to keep you in-touch and up-to-date with your vacation rental business. Simply login to your account from any computer and access the Reservation Management System from your member section.

| Please note: The Reservation Management System premium service is designed as a convenience measure for vacation rental owners allowing them to monitor and keep track of their vacation rental reservations in an online environment. It does not allow renters to book reservations at properties nor does it collect funds from renters. Only vacation rental owners who subscribe to listing packages with this service are able to access the Reservation Management System. Users of the Reservation Management System are strongly encouraged to maintain physical records of reservations (outside the scope of the Reservation Management System) to protect against service downtime or unavailability. VacationPads is not responsible for loss of data, accuracy of data or system downtime. |
