What does a minimum-stay restriction mean?

Published October 1, 2026 · 1 minute read

The answer

A minimum-stay restriction sets a lower duration under the applicable rule or agreement. Its exact meaning, exceptions, and enforcement depend on the source. Check whether it applies to each reservation, advertised availability, or another defined condition.

Align the calendar settings with the rule and audit changes made by pricing tools. An accidental shorter booking can create operational and compliance problems.
