Airbnb calendar sync
and availability replies
Reads the platform calendar directly and tells the guest whether the date is open.
- Live Airbnb iCal sync — booked dates are pulled automatically and marked unavailable on the website calendar. Redirect following, line unfolding and both date and datetime formats are handled, so a change in calendar formatting will not break it.
- 5-minute cache — no excessive requests to the platform even under load, while new bookings appear within five minutes.
- Pick a date, send an inquiry — selecting check-in and check-out computes the number of nights and carries it straight into the inquiry.
- Natural-language dates — “this Saturday”, “the 15th of next month”, “early August”, “two nights” are all interpreted in Korea Standard Time. A past date is automatically rolled forward to next year.
- Rate rules applied automatically — peak season (weekends, holidays, defined peak period) versus off-season, minimum stay, cleaning fee and extra-guest charges are quoted by rule.
- Direct booking encouraged — the reply naturally mentions that booking direct avoids platform commission.
- SMS and chat confirmation — guests confirm availability either in KakaoTalk or with a single text message from the website.
For the hostYou never open the calendar to answer “is that date free?”
