Holiday rental availability calendars but not booking

Recommended Posts

Hi I'm creating a website for our holiday rentals - it's one company but there are 3 properties on the site that people can book. We want to be able to show the availability for each property and the tariff for that week but we don't need people to be able to book, bookings are mainly managed through a 3rd party site (usually used by new customers) or by telephone (returning customers), hence why we just need to be able to show availability and price to any customers who then want to book via telephone. It needs to be fairly easy to update so that my grandfather who runs the properties can update it when bookings come in through either channel. I thought I could use the Lodgify 'Search box' feature but it seems to go a step too far and goes into booking which we don't need, but that is similar to what we would like it to look like (calendar style). On the current site which is very outdated we just have a table for each property showing the date of that week, if it's booked or not and that weeks tariff which doesn't look good.

Does anyone know of anything else I could try?

Thank you

I would typically look for a single solution that can manage bookings and reduce manual administration. If you are already managing bookings through a third party site, have you explored whether this can be integrated into your Squarespace website, or replaced with a single service like Lodgify?

It will also help if you can include the URLs of your site and the third party booking site.
