It's critical to ensure that your calendars and availability are in sync when listing your property on several booking sites. Otherwise, you risk obtaining multiple reservations, which may be quite expensive if two distinct visitors reserve your property for the same period on two different booking platforms.

Hence it is better if you merge your calendar like Airbnb or Vrbo with other calendars to avoid other guests booking on the same date. For this purpose, both Airbnb and Vrbo, and many other sites offer calendar importing mechanisms.
