If your property is closed for holidays throughout the year, you can create a property holiday schedule to mark your property as closed on those days and to prevent members or prospects from making bookings on holidays.
Administrators can make bookings when a property is closed for a holiday, and you can choose to allow regular members and 24/7 booking access group members to book under certain circumstances. For more information, see Setting who can book on holidays.
Kube supports two types of holidays: fixed and dynamic.
Fixed holidays occur on the same calendar date every year. An example of a fixed holiday is New Year's Day.
Dynamic holidays occur at a set time during a specific month, regardless of the date. An example of a dynamic holiday is Thanksgiving in the United States, which occurs on the fourth Thursday of every November.
When you configure holidays in Kube, you see different date selection options based on the holiday type you add.
This article is part of the Kube property setup flow. For more information, see Kube setup checklist.
NOTE: Depending on your assigned role and permissions, and the version of Kube your organization uses, some or all of these menus or services may not be available or displayed.
