Summary:

These rules, covering gap lengths, arrival/departure days, and stay durations, offer flexibility and control. Examples demonstrate the adaptability of these rules, ensuring optimized park grid efficiency and a structured booking schedule.

Reservation Rules

These rules allow you to better quantify your reservations by defining gaps, when a reservation can arrive or depart, and length of stay.

Rule: No gaps of _ length allowed

Purpose

• Minimize the time between guest check-out and the next guest's check-in, optimizing park grid efficiency, and reducing site vacancy.

• Allow filtering results based on the defined gap length for enhanced reservation management.

Example:

Employing a rule not allowing a 2-day gap, a reservation search will list sites available with more than a 2 day gap between the last reservation's checkout date and the new reservation's check in date. The rule can be overridden when necessary.

Rule: No arrivals or departures on _ day of the week

Purpose

• Prevent check-ins or check-outs on specific days of the week, providing greater control over reservation flow.

• Ensure a more structured schedule for arrivals and departures

Rule: Reservation minimum of _ days

Purpose

• Manage the minimum length of stay required for a valid reservation, ensuring reservations meet or exceed a specified number of nights.
• Enforce stay duration policies for optimal booking management.

Example

A 5-night length of stay rule means reservations must stay 5 or more nights for confirmation.

Rule: Reservation maximum of _ days

Purpose

• Set a maximum stay rule, limiting the total number of nights allowed in a single reservation.
• Useful for controlling extended stays and ensuring flexibility in site availability.
