Rate versus nights booked
In Chelan 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 | $239 | 62% | 225 | $53,737 |
| Market pricing | $265 | 55% | 201 | $53,199 |
| Price 10% over the market | $292 | 48% | 177 | $51,585 |
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.
