Customers can easily get to know the list of available and booked dates in a calendar view and based on it they can continue their booking process.
Price calculation of the service for the booked dates can be automated using ‘Calculate the Price’ button. Visitors can also get in direct touch with the owners of the rented property through ‘Contact Owner’ button on the property detail page.
