You can pause hosting on Holidu without deleting your account or removing your property. Blocking your calendar or unpublishing your property stops new bookings while keeping your settings, history, and reviews safe for when you return.

How can I pause bookings without removing my property?

The simplest option is to block your calendar. A calendar block stops guests from booking the dates you select, and your property stays active and visible on all channels. Blocking your calendar is ideal if you:

• Are taking a short break
• Need time for repairs or upgrades
• Expect to reopen soon
• Want your property to stay visible and ready for later

How do I unpublish my property?

If you do not want your property to appear on Holidu or partner channels for a while, you can unpublish it. Unpublishing hides your property everywhere but keeps all your details, so you can republish it at any time. Only the host can unpublish a property.

Steps to unpublish a property

1. Log in to your Holidu Host account.
2. Go to Properties and choose the property.
3. Scroll to Advanced Settings.
4. Click Unpublish and confirm.

What happens to my information when I pause hosting?

Whether you block your calendar or unpublish your property, you can still:

• Log in to your Holidu account
• Review your booking and payment history
• View and edit your property details
• Reactivate your property whenever you choose

Some booking data must be retained for legal and operational purposes, such as invoices, complaints, and upcoming stays. Your account stays accessible even when your property is unavailable.

How do I request permanent deletion of my data?

If you are sure you no longer want to use Holidu, you can request permanent deletion of your personal data.

How to request deletion: Use the Holidu Assistant.

Important: Once deleted, your account, properties, messages, and booking history cannot be recovered. If you only want to pause hosting, blocking your calendar is the better option.

How can I show only published properties?

Use the filter at the top of your property list to focus on active properties.

1. Open your property list in your Holidu Host account.
2. Select Published properties from the filter.

This filter only changes what you see in your dashboard. It does not affect how your property appears on channels.
