Where Every Setting Lives

Haven splits a listing's controls across three surfaces: the listing editor (content and guest experience), the Calendar page (money and availability), and Listing settings (every listing's settings in one grid). This article is the map.

A quick scope rule: anything you change in the editor or on the Calendar panel affects that one listing. To send a setting from that listing to your other listings, use the small copy button next to that setting (see Copy One Setting From a Listing). Listing settings can change one listing or the rows you select. A few columns (fee name, unanswered requests, hold dates, OTA savings, taxes before checkout, clock) are one value for the account.

The Listing Editor

Open a listing and choose Edit Listing. Four tabs run down the sidebar:

Space — what the property is. Photos & Spaces · Property Story · Location · Amenities · Reviews & Testimonials · Cancellation policy.

Arrival — everything about the guest's stay and guidebook. Guidebook access · Welcome · Guide layout & tabs · Guide components · Check-in & tasks · Checkout & tasks · Rules & safety · WiFi & contacts · Upsells · House manual PDF · Guest verification (rental agreement and ID requirements). Pages are added and arranged beside the phone preview: Add page and Import (a guidebook link or PDF) sit to its right, and a press-and-hold on a card in the phone rearranges it.

Layout — how the public site looks. Site pages & tabs · Hero · Brand identity.

Preferences — operational settings. Pricing & Availability (opens the Calendar page) · Custom domain · Smart devices · Language · iCal calendar sync · Visibility · Advanced (duplicate or archive the listing).

The search bar at the top of the editor finds any section by name, so typing "wifi" or "cancellation" is often faster than browsing.

The Calendar Page

The Calendar button next to Edit Listing opens the pricing and availability workspace. Its right panel has three tabs:

Schedule — bookings, blocks, and day-by-day management.

Price — every money control for this listing: nightly and weekend rates, currency, seasonal pricing, promotions, discounts, discount codes, fees, custom fees, stay-based fees, pet fee, security deposit, PriceLabs sync, and this listing's direct-booking discount and margin overrides. Taxes themselves are configured under Payouts → Tax rules — the Price tab links there. These display controls also live here:

  • Hide price breakdown from guests (per listing) — groups nightly rates and fees into one line you can name. Guests still see taxes, discounts, and the total.
  • Show taxes before checkout (one switch for the account) — makes every pre-checkout total tax-inclusive instead of "Est. total before taxes and discounts". The same column as Listing settings, mirrored here because hosts look for it beside the breakdown control.
  • Show nightly prices in the date picker (per listing, off by default) — prints each night's price on its day while guests pick dates. Locked here while an older “set for all listings” rule is still on. Editing the column in Listing settings clears that rule.
  • OTA savings on booking bar (one switch for the account) — the "Saving $X booking direct" pill, the same column as Listing settings, plus where this listing's Airbnb price comes from and the button to link its Airbnb listing. See OTA Savings on Booking Bar.

Availability — blocked dates, booking settings such as advance notice, check-in and checkout rules, stay requirements, minimum nights by day (with Fill orphan gaps for shorter stays between bookings), Holiday region (this listing's own country and state for holidays, when it differs from your account's — set that under Settings → Account & Profile → Account → Holidays & key dates), Holiday rules (no check-ins, no check-outs or a minimum stay on holidays and school breaks, every year), Instant book, and the Inquiry button switch under it (hide the Submit an inquiry button so guests book or use the contact form — see Guest Inquiries). Listing settings at the top opens the grid of every listing's settings.

Listing settings

Sites → Listing settings (/host?tab=listing-settings) is where the settings that used to live in Property settings are edited, next to each listing's own rates and rules. The gear on Listing sites and Listing settings on a listing's Calendar → Availability tab both open that grid.

One row per listing. Hover a listing's name for View listing (the public page, in a new tab) and Edit listing (that listing's editor). Columns cover rates and fees (nightly and weekend rate, cleaning, short-stay cleaning, pet, extra guest, linen and resort fees, service fee, its name and whether it shows as a separate line), discounts (weekly, monthly, early-bird, last-minute, trip-length, direct booking, discount codes), policies (cancellation policy, payment schedule, security deposit, charge card for changes), stay rules (min and max nights, gap nights, max guests, pets), booking (instant book, inquiry button, advance notice, same-day cutoff, booking window, same-day turnover, check-in and check-out times and days, unanswered requests, hold dates, linked calendars), check-in (times, access type, keys, greeting, early and late check-in), house rules (events, quiet hours, photography, agree to rules), safety notes, trust (ID verification, rental agreement, each on OTA bookings too, Screen & Protect on OTA, selfie, returning guests, fee payer, when guests sign), guidebook (access, unlock window, auto-send and reminders, tap to call, weather unit), display (nightly prices in the date picker, price breakdown, offers section, OTA savings, taxes before checkout, clock, discovery survey, reviews, gallery, translation), and the listing itself (accepting bookings, visibility, search engines, language, iCal export links). Find a setting above the grid narrows the columns to the ones that match, misspellings included.

Edit a cell for one listing. Drag down a column (or ⌘/Ctrl-click cells) and press Set value to change those cells together. Tick rows and Edit settings to write the same value onto each of them. Fee name, unanswered requests, hold dates, charge card for changes, OTA savings, taxes before checkout, and clock are one value for the account: every row shows it, and changing one changes it everywhere. The All listings row under the column names applies one value to every listing, including listings you add later; the column is tinted on each listing that has it. See Set Booking Rules for All Listings.

Changes for particular dates (a block, a custom price, a minimum stay, check-in / check-out days, a promotion) are not grid settings. Make them on the listing's calendar, or on several listings at once from the dashboard's Calendar → Schedule: select the dates, then All properties or Choose listings. See Change dates from Schedule.
