Monitor your bookings and availability at a glance

When managing multiple accommodations, you need a clear and quick view of their status. With Avantio's Availability and Revenue plannings, you can see which properties are available, which have bookings, and how to adjust your prices to maximize income. All from a single, centralized visual environment.

Availability Planning: instantly manage your bookings

The Availability Planning is the main calendar for daily management. It allows you to view the status of each accommodation in block format and operate directly on the calendar.

What you can do from Availability Planning

  • View bookings, blocks, and their status through colors.

  • Create new bookings for customers or owners.

  • Confirm or cancel bookings with a few clicks.

  • Easily move or block periods.

  • Sort accommodations by custom categories.

Helpful Tip

Use categories to quickly identify your key properties. For example, "premium villas," "central apartments," or "family accommodations."
