How to Create Packages and Build Custom Accommodation Bundles

Article Summary: This comprehensive tutorial explains how to create and configure attractive accommodation packages within your Reservit booking engine. You will learn how to set up a new base offer, define specific validity periods, and seamlessly link custom extras—like spa access or dining options—to build complete stay bundles. Publishing enticing packages allows you to automate upselling, increase your average booking value, and provide a richer, more tailored experience for your guests.

The 5 Key Steps to Create Accommodation Packages:

  • Access Offers & Initiate Package: Navigate to "My rates and availability," select "My offers," and click "ADD" under your regular rates to establish and name your new package.

  • Define Pricing & Eligible Units: Set your baseline room rate (such as your standard RACK rate), select which specific units are included, and choose your distribution channels (e.g., exclusive to your website).

  • Configure Validity & Restrictions: Specify the valid date ranges, active days of the week, and any length-of-stay restrictions, then save the core offer settings.

  • Create Package Extras: Access the "Manage Extra" menu to build the specific add-on services that complete your package, carefully defining their individual prices, taxes, and billing frequency.

  • Link Extras & Publish: Assign these newly created extras exclusively to your new package offer, save the final configuration, and publish the bundle to make it live for your customers.

Why follow this guide? Building integrated packages directly in your system automates the upselling process, saving your staff from manually adding and calculating extras during check-in. This strategic configuration ensures perfectly accurate billing and taxes for complex stays while effortlessly boosting your property's overall revenue per available room.
