Our recent podcast episode with Key Data called out an interesting data point for the US market 🇺🇸. On April 5, 2025, reservations per property had decreased 20% year-over-year for the US as a whole.

How are Q2 bookings looking for you, compared to last year, in your part of the world?

I’m up overall but some are down in some markets, while others are up. The ones that are down, are significantly down. Utilizing Pricelabs, my properties aren’t the adnominally. 


I’m down about 8% from last year for 1st quarter.  April is about the same as last year, and May is a bit up, and I’m still hoping to fill in some mid weeks with a child listing.  This is when I really wish I could duplicate a listing in Hospitable!  


Its been quite a bit lighter this year than last. Summer is starting to build nicely, but its at a later and slower pace. Seems we are in recessionary times. Municipalities adding more MAT taxes in some areas also adding challenges. 


Revenue is up 33% this quarter so far (compared to Apr - May last year). The fun thing is the number of reservations stayed the same, but I’m getting longer bookings at a higher average nightly rate. Maybe we can attribute some of that to Hospitable’s dynamic pricing, which I turned on a few weeks ago while Hospitable employees tested it before our customers got a hold of it 😏
