The days are getting longer, the sun is making more frequent appearances and that can only mean one thing: camping season is here! It’s the time of year when everything comes together: guests, bookings, new team members, and lots of small details to stay on top of. But how do you make sure your park is ready for the busy season, without burning yourself out?
In this blog, we’ll share practical tips and show how automation can help you enter the high season smoothly and stress-free.
In deze blog delen we praktische tips én laten we zien hoe automatisering je helpt om soepel het hoogseizoen in te gaan.
Nothing is more frustrating than double bookings or messy spreadsheets. With an automated reservation system, you always have real-time insight into your availability. Guests can book directly through your website, no more back-and-forth emails or phone calls. It saves time and reduces errors.
Demand is going up, but your prices are staying the same? That’s a missed opportunity! With dynamic pricing, your rates automatically adjust based on occupancy, season, or accommodation type. That way, you get the most out of your offer without constantly having to keep an eye on it. Check out our Revenue Management partners and find the best fit for your business!
Guests want clear information, before, during, and after their stay. With automated emails, you can inform them at the right moment about their booking, arrival, practical details, and even send a thank-you afterward. It helps guests feel welcomed and well-informed, while saving you loads of emails and phone calls.
Long queues at the front desk? Not necessary. With self-service check-in or digital access, guests can arrive smoothly, and you have more time for personal interaction or other important tasks. Consider investing in access control so guests can skip the reception entirely and head straight to their accommodation, unlocking it with a digital key.
Automation gets you far, but extra hands are often essential in high season. Make sure your seasonal staff starts on time and is properly trained. Don’t just show them around the park — introduce them to your systems too. Through the Booking Experts Academy, new team members can follow online training modules so they quickly get up to speed with your automated workflows.
A smoothly running park starts with clear task management. With the Booking Experts task module, you can easily assign jobs to colleagues or teams — from housekeeping and maintenance to checklists for arrivals and departures. Thanks to the Task App, your staff can work directly in the system, and you get a real-time overview of everything that’s been completed. It helps prevent miscommunication and keeps your operations running efficiently, even on the busiest days of the season.
Every minute counts during high season. By connecting your systems, think channel manager, accounting integrations, or a housekeeping planner, you save hours of manual work. Everything you automate is something you don’t have to remember or check yourself. That’s priceless during your busiest months, and it prevents miscommunication, ensuring your guests enjoy a smooth and pleasant stay.
Automation isn’t a luxury, it’s a smart move if you want to enter high season with confidence. Curious how you can set up your camping or holiday park more efficiently?
