How can I change the number of guests?
If you need to modify the number of guests on your confirmed reservation, you can request this change through your booking platform. The process varies slightly depending on whether you booked through Holidu, Airbnb, or Booking.com. Here's how to make these changes on each platform.
How to change the number of guests on Booking.com
If your Booking.com reservation allows modifications, you can easily change the number of guests by following these steps:
- Log in to your Booking.com account
- Click on "Bookings and trips" in the top right corner
- Select the reservation you want to modify
- Scroll down and click the "Modify" button
- Check if your booking is changeable. If the property allows modifications, you'll see an option to "Modify booking"
- Select the new number of guests and confirm the change
- If you don't see the option to modify your trip, the property may have restrictions. Click on "Contact property" or call them directly to request changes
Once you submit your request, Booking.com will receive a notification and evaluate whether the change is possible based on the property's guest capacity.
How to change the number of guests on Airbnb
You can modify the number of guests on your Airbnb reservation by submitting a trip change request. Follow these steps:
- Log in to your Airbnb account
- Click "Trips" in the top right corner and select the trip you want to change
- Scroll down and, under Reservation details, click "Change reservation"
- Change the number of guests for your stay and click "Save"
- Review your changes and click "Send request"
After you submit your request, Airbnb will send a notification to the host. The request will be evaluated to confirm it's possible to approve based on the property's guest capacity.
How to change the number of guests on Holidu
You can request to change the number of guests on your confirmed Holidu reservation directly through your account. Here's how:
If you have a Holidu account:
- Log in to your Holidu account
- Click on "My bookings" in the top right corner
- Select the reservation you'd like to change from your list of bookings
- Scroll down to the "Booking details" section and click "Change reservation"
- Adjust the number of guests as needed, then click "Save"
- Review your changes and click "Send request"
If you don't have a Holidu account:
- Find the Holidu booking confirmation in your emails
- Click on the link "Booking details". This will take you to your booking page where you can request the change by clicking on "Change reservation"
After you send your request, Holidu will review it to check if the change is possible based on the property's guest capacity. You will receive a notification with details about any price changes. Once you confirm, Holidu will process your request.
Important considerations when changing guest numbers
Keep these important points in mind when modifying the number of guests on any platform:
- Property capacity limits: Changes depend on the property's guest limits and availability. If the new number of guests exceeds the property's maximum capacity, your request may be denied.
- Price changes: The total price of your booking may change if you increase or decrease the number of guests. You will be notified of any price adjustments before the change is finalized.
- Approval required: All changes must be approved by the platform and the property host before they take effect. This may take some time depending on the host's response time.
- Booking restrictions: Some properties have non-modifiable bookings. If you cannot see an option to modify your reservation, contact the property directly to request the change.
