Detailed Calendars
Booking calendars are provided in separate “Availability Calendar” pages and in each house/room detail page. There’s also one available in the back-end section.
Block Dates
Is your hotel/house unavailable during some parts of the year? If yes, set them in the back-end and they will be unavailable for booking.
Translate the plugin
Use WPML to translate the plugin and even create a multilingual site where visitors can change the default language per their requirements.
Setup promotions using coupons
The included coupon module will allow you to offer discounts for the standard booking fees. Coupon codes created in the back-end can be modified and removed at any time.
Set a Deposit
If you don’t want to charge the full price online, use the deposit functionality. Have them pay a fixed percentage online and the rest while checking in.
