Rate versus nights booked
In Chincoteague 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 | $212 | 62% | 225 | $47,666 |
| Market pricing | $235 | 55% | 201 | $47,176 |
| Price 10% over the market | $259 | 48% | 177 | $45,755 |
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.
