Microsoft Bookings for small holiday accommodations businesses
Hi Kushla,
Bookings is not really designed for that scenario, but with a little extra work you can set up a workaround with some limitations.
1. You would need to add each room as a staff member
2. You would need to add the kind of rooms as services (I.e. Queen room, 2 twin beds, etc) and assign the staff/room to each service
3. You would need to setup specific time frames for each service (I.e. Set up 30 mins long per service)
4. You need to set your business hours from 3-30pm each day. This way, your customers can only book one service per day.
I set this up with one bedroom as a test and it worked. You can see it https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/TrialGabrielhotel@microsoft.onmicrosoft.com/bookings/
Let me know if you have questions, depending on how many rooms you have, this could take a while to setup.

Gabriel_Valdez do you know of a way to allow the customer to book "from" and "to" dates?
I offer pet sitting and would like them to be able to pick dates, not just the drop off day.
