By listing your property on our platform, you agree to follow these guidelines to help ensure a consistent, secure, and positive experience for both hosts and guests. Following these best practices increases guest trust, encourages repeat bookings, and maintains the quality of the BaliLocalStays community.
Key Guidelines for Listing on BaliLocalStays
- Minimize Booking Cancellations
Avoid cancelling confirmed guest bookings except when absolutely necessary. Cancellations can disrupt guests’ plans, lead to financial loss, and diminish the reputation of both your property and BaliLocalStays. - Keep Your Calendar Up-To-Date
Maintain an accurate availability calendar at all times. This avoids the frustration of receiving booking requests for unavailable dates and reduces unnecessary messages and declined bookings. - No Grouping of Multiple Properties Into One Listing
Each property must have its own unique listing. Do not use a single listing to advertise or redirect guests to multiple separate accommodations.
Content Standards
To maintain the integrity and professionalism of all BaliLocalStays listings, please ensure you use each field for its intended purpose. The following information is not permitted in text areas of your listing (unless specifically requested by a particular field):
- Company or business names
- External URLs or website links
- HTML code
- Phone numbers
- Email addresses
- Exact property addresses (unless in the dedicated address field)
General Listing Best Practices
- Honest and Accurate Description:
Your listing must accurately describe the property, amenities, and location. Photos and written details should reflect what guests will actually experience. - Precise Region Selection:
Select the most accurate region or area for your listing. This helps guests find properties in the location they want.
Compliance and Visibility
These guidelines are designed to ensure an excellent experience for everyone using BaliLocalStays. If your listing violates any of these rules, it may be subject to the following actions:
- Reduced visibility in search results
- Limitations on receiving booking inquiries
- Temporary or permanent removal from BaliLocalStays
By maintaining accurate information and following these standards, you help grow trust and success for Balinese hosts and travelers alike.
