MANAGE CALENDAR/PRICING

Copy your Bud and Breakfast iCal link. For example: https://www.budandbreakfast.com/ical.php?property=34531 Once you have copied this link paste it into the iCal section in the calendar settings section for Airbnb, VRBO or any other vacation rental site. This will keep your Bud and Breakfast calendar updated on other rental sites you are listed on. After you complete this step a Bud and Breakfast booking will automatically block out dates on any other calendars such as Airbnb, VRBO and HomeAway. Hosts can paste iCal links onto Bud and Breakfast from other bookings sites by clicking “My Properties”, “Edit” and then scroll down to “Calendar Sync Address”. Paste the link into this section and click “Save Changes”. *This is a very important step for hosts to complete to avoid double bookings.
