S2. Ep. 33: Beyond Airbnb: Who Will Bring the Next Guest to Your Kavala Property? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Barcelona plans not to renew more than 10,000 tourist-apartment licences after 2028. Amsterdam limits many holiday rentals to 30 nights. Paris uses a 90-day ceiling for primary residences. Greece has introduced national safety standards and geographically targeted restrictions in central Athens. Kavala has no announced local restriction of this kind. But every property owner should still ask a harder question: If Airbnb disappeared tomorrow, where would your next guest come from? Our new corners
S2. Ep. 32: Airbnb vs Booking.com in Kavala: What 437 Bookings Reveal (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Which platform actually performs better for short-term rentals in Kavala? In this episode of The Planbnb Playbook, we break down 437 confirmed Airbnb and Booking.com bookings from Planbnb-managed properties. Booking.com clearly leads in booking volume and total value, while Airbnb shows a higher portfolio-wide ADR and becomes relatively more important in the shoulder season. But when we compare similar properties on both platforms, the gap changes dramatically. A data-driven look at revenue shar
S2. Ep. 31: Why We Don't Use AC Sensors or Key Cards in Our Airbnb Properties (opens the original)
Read excerpt

In this episode, we explain why guest comfort always comes before saving a few euros on electricity, how these systems affect the guest experience, and why small operational decisions often have a bigger impact on reviews, repeat bookings, and long-term rental performance than most owners realise. If you o

Read excerpt
In this episode, we explore the findings of the Planbnb Kavala Airbnb Market Report (2025–2026) , one of the first publicly available analyses based entirely on real booking data from professionally managed properties. Drawing on 838 booking events across 29 managed properties , we discuss: • Which booking channel generates the most revenue • How guest booking behaviour is changing • Average stay length and booking windows • Seasonality and demand throughout the year • Guest origin and internati
S2. Ep. 29: Pool or No Pool: What It Actually Does to Your Airbnb Revenue (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every villa owner in Kavala asks the same question at some point: is a pool actually worth the money, or is it just a nice-to-have that looks good in photos? In this episode, I break down a real case study comparing two similar 3-bedroom villas, one with a pool and one without. The difference: 12,300€ in additional revenue in a single season, from a combination of more nights booked and a higher nightly rate. I walk through why a pool changes which search filters guests use to find you in the fi
