It would be great to be able to globally set, for example, a 2 or 3 night minimum for specific days like Mon-Thurs. There is a setting for longer minimums if the stay includes a weekend--but for API-integrated channels that only works if the arrival is on the weekend, so you couldn't use that setting to prevent 2-night Thursday-Saturday booking.
Thank you so much for posting this request. We truly appreciate you taking the time to outline what you are trying to accomplish.
I did want to share that much of the flexibility you are looking for is already available today. By adjusting your weekend definition under Property Rules, you can extend your minimum-night requirements to include additional days like Thursday through Saturday instead of only Friday and Saturday. That allows you to enforce a longer minimum even when a guest arrives on a weekday, which solves the Thursday-to-Saturday scenario you mentioned.
Additionally, the Advanced Selector in the Rates Calendar gives you even more precision. You can quickly highlight specific weekdays across a date range and apply custom minimums just to those days. For example, if you’d like all Wednesdays to require three nights year-round, that can be applied in just a couple of clicks.
With these two tools combined, most day-specific minimum-night patterns can be set or customized as needed, even if not globally across every property in one step.
That said, we always appreciate feedback that helps us refine the system, and I’ve logged your request so our team can review whether there are opportunities to simplify or enhance these options in the future.
Thanks again for the great suggestion, and please keep them coming!
Here is a video showing how you can adjust your settings to take advantage of different minimum-night combinations.

Oh I did not know about the option of the advanced selector in the rates calendar. That totally works! Thanks so much.
