Generating Your Property Description

A clear, well-structured property description helps guests choose your home. Holidu's Description Generator builds the text for you in a few clicks, in eight languages, so you don't have to write from scratch.

How to Get Started

Follow these steps to generate your property description:

1. Log in to the Holidu Homes website or app and access your property.
2. Click on Title & Description. Note: This option only appears once you've completed the Amenities section and some of the information in General Information.
3. Make sure the Amenities section is complete and accurate. The Description Generator uses this information to build your text, so it's important that all relevant features and services are selected.

1. In the Description Generator, you can let the tool create a description automatically, or select "Provide your own text" to submit your own version. Our system will adapt this input to meet platform requirements.

1. Use the sections Essential details for guests and Other details to add any extra information you'd like included.

1. When everything is ready, click Generate at the bottom right of the page. Your description will be created.
2. You can view the result in other available languages by using the dropdown menu above the text.

What You Can Do After Generation

Once your description is generated, you have several options:

• Accept and use the suggested description
• Regenerate a new version
• Edit the description
• Leave feedback so we can keep improving the generator

Managing Multi-Unit Properties

If you manage a multi-unit property, please follow this two-step process:

1. Go to Global configuration > Global title & description and generate the main text for the entire property.
2. Then, go to each individual unit via Units > Unit title & description, and generate their respective descriptions one by one.

This ensures your main property description is comprehensive while allowing each unit to have its own tailored description that highlights its unique features.

Making Edits to the Description

If you'd like to change the generated text:

1. Click Edit at the bottom right of the description.
2. Modify the content as needed — you can correct typos, update amenities, or include more specific details.
3. Choose whether to apply your edits to:
   • Only the current language, or
   • All translated versions (recommended for important updates like check-in times, pool availability, or parking)

This flexibility allows you to personalize your description while maintaining consistency across all language versions.

Updating an Existing Description

If your property already has a description and you want to update it, you can either edit directly in Title and Description or follow these steps:

1. Go to your property page.
2. Update the Amenities section with any new or changed services and features.
3. Navigate to the Description section.
4. Click on "Generate new description".
5. Add or adjust any relevant details in the available fields.
6. Click Generate to create a new description.
7. Compare it to the current one and click Use new description if you'd like to replace it.

This process ensures that your updated amenities are reflected in the new description and that your property information stays current.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why can't I just use my own text?

Holidu generates descriptions structured for visibility and accuracy across the booking channels we publish to. This allows us to:

• Provide translations into eight languages
• Follow the formatting and content guidelines of distribution channels
• Support the discoverability of your listing

If you want to use your own description, after the Holidu description is generated, click on "Edit" and add the exact text you want. Our tool will adjust it to comply with the rules of distribution channels.

Can I personalize the description?

Yes. You can adjust and personalize your description by editing it. After generation, simply click the Edit button to make any changes you'd like. You can update specific sections, add personal touches, or modify any details to better reflect your property's unique character.

What if the text is incorrect?

You can edit or regenerate the description at any time. Just make sure the Amenities section is up to date, as it is the foundation for the text generation. If you regenerate, the Description Generator will create a fresh version based on your current amenities and any additional details you provide.

What information does the Description Generator use?

The Description Generator uses information from your Amenities section, General Information, and any additional details you provide in the "Essential details for guests" and "Other details" fields. Make sure all these sections are complete and accurate for the best results.

How many languages does the Description Generator support?

The Description Generator creates descriptions in eight languages: English, Spanish, German, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, French, and Greek. You can view and edit the description in any of these languages using the language dropdown menu.

Important Note: Booking.com Information Section

Please note that the "Info" section displayed on Booking.com is automatically generated by the platform based on the active facilities and features configured in the listing. As a result, Holidu does not have direct control over the content shown in this section. Your Holidu-generated description will be used on our platform and other distribution channels as configured.
