How to not allow same day booking

This post explains how to not allow same day booking on Houfy

Last updated August 23, 2026

To stop guests booking a stay that starts today:

  1. Go to Manage Listings and open the listing.

  2. Click Calendar, then click Settings in the calendar toolbar.

  3. Open the Availability tab and click Edit at the top right of the panel.

  4. Under Same Day Booking, set Allow same day booking to No.

Guests then cannot book any stay whose check-in date is today. They can still book today for a later arrival date, and stays already booked are unaffected.

If a same-day arrival is fine earlier in the day but not late, leave this set to Yes and use the Cut off time dropdown that appears next to it instead. Today stops being bookable once that hour passes in your listing's own timezone.

Same day booking is allowed by default, so if you have never changed this you do not need to turn anything on.
