Rate versus nights booked
In Poconos the two levers move against each other. Modelled outcomes at three pricing positions:
| Pricing position | Nightly rate | Occupancy | Nights | Gross revenue |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Price 10% under the market | $223 | 59% | 217 | $48,316 |
| Market pricing | $248 | 53% | 193 | $47,976 |
| Price 10% over the market | $273 | 47% | 170 | $46,474 |
The trade-off uses a modelled price elasticity: a 10% price move shifts occupancy by roughly 12% in the opposite direction. Real elasticity varies by property and by season — treat this as a way to frame the decision, not a forecast.
