Thanks for putting all these amazing little details into one video! It all adds up to having the best airbnb place for any guest! 💖

We've been doing Airbnb for five years and the expense is in replacing towels and linens because people will even bleed on the sheets, if they have a scrape or the kids take chocolate to bed, so I protect my pillows and always clean every sheet, but it's a regular thing. I guess because I have a rule of white sheets and towels I think clients need to see if these things are nasty or clean. I hate to go to a rental and see brown towels or dark sheets that only means they're hiding stains. But it's a lot of work and you can't splurge in giving people all this nice stuff, we give them cleanliness and the necessities, like air/heat fridge stove to have a nice quiet rest and stay, the rest is up to them. But we stopped giving perks like special soaps and things they usually bring their own if they want something expensive we give a decent soap and bathroom tissue that's nice. That's it wifi, Netflix that too. It's expensive guys!!😂

I do most of these items and have for years. A couple of other things I do are: make the door code the last four digits of guests phone number, have outdoor shower, gas fire pit on back screen porch, wood burning fire pit down by water, electric fireplace inside, gas & charcoal grills, towels specific for the lake (all white inside but striped cabana style to take on boat), extra easy boat supplies they may need including variety of life jacket sizes, I keep aloe gel in refrigerator JIC but also have large aloe plant, upside down basic condiments, I have cocktail stations set up both inside and outside, outside cocktail station has high end nonbreakable glassware, YES blackout drapes but I also paint my bedrooms very dark colors to make cozy & have less reflection making sleep easier, disposable satin sleep masks, both satin & matching white cotton pillowcases, I use clear labels with small black print so it doesn’t take away from the esthetic, love idea of record player but I use Bose revolve, also in the back my welcome book I have a separate section of paint colors & links to items I purchased online (people have purchased the makeup cloths from my Amazon affiliate link), I know it’s controversial but I leave a variety of candles instead of the incense because people can have allergies (I’ve found that just a good clean fresh smell is best upon arrival), cute dishwashing gloves, fire extinguisher both inside & by grills), snuggly blankets, Xbox console with rechargeable controllers that sit on countertop, outdoor games (football, soccer ball, horseshoes, baggo, scheduled yard service late morning (never early morning & never during peak afternoon time, let guests know what day & name of service provider, never had a single complaint), designated parking spaces so guests don’t park on grass, a few tide pods (not entire bucket), steamer instead of iron, hairdryer in each bathroom, candles in bathrooms, plunger in each bathroom, flower vase under sink & depending on turn time there’s usually a small bloom in each bathroom & in kitchen, wireless printer because my husband after needs one for work, fresh herb garden outside by outdoor kitchen, dimmer switches, small lamp/phone holder with plug in every bunk, a bunk room ( I try to design every house to be multigenerational but one room to accommodate several younger people). Wow…. I didn’t mean that to be so long. Great video, good luck with Peach Casita! Oh one word of caution, I used to keep the journal in mine as well and never had trouble but I removed it after a friend had a bad experience. Their renter never called to report any issue but wrote a comment about the AC unit. The owner did not know to have it serviced until it ran so long that they ended up having to replace instead of minor repair. There was not another booking immediately following that stay so she allowed cleaning crew to work elsewhere. It was bad. Heard other horror stories too about bad reviews left in the book that could have been avoided had renter called owner. Renter used it as justification to get full refund. 😮

What a beautiful house! I love it! Fredericksburg is so cute, too. Your house will bring so much joy and inspiration!
@annswallow2247
Great tips! I have already implemented most of them. An umbrella is a great idea. I use Dusk Til Dawn exterior lights. No timers necessary.
@TheMcHastings
You put together ideas that complete the hospitality experience. Thank you for putting these together.

One the best video for Airbnb on YouTube. Thanks
@shawnnov13
Airbnb is the best way to travel if u have 5-10 people vacationing . You have so much more space, cooking facilities,free parking, a yard & place where u can all sit together. I am always booking Airbnb whenever I travel with a larger group.

I wish all AIRBNBs had a pull up bar by the toilet Us older folks appreciate anything that makes movement easier. Thanks.
@ontherise323
Thank you for this video! I’m currently preparing my house to host, and I was starting to feel like all of the extras I wanted to add were not good ideas due to theft or things breaking. It’s refreshing to to hear that these are all good things!!
@dianegilders7659
Thank you for all the amazing ideas! I have one concern, many people have allergies to air fresheners. Twice I have arrived at an Airbnb only to become so sick that we had to flee and find a hotel room. (Not fun at a 12:00 am arrival with children). Fortunately, both of those times the hosts were gracious and gave us a full refund. My grandson has cancer and his oncologist have told us that no one should ever go near those air fresheners. I’m planning to create an allergy free Airbnb and I will advertise that. That’s what I always look for when I’m travelling and there is a shortage of those.
@successwithstacee9290
Great list!! I’m just wrapping up setting up a new Airbnb and my biggest challenge now is naming the home. I love the idea of a local magazine subscription.
@carloserodrod
Great suggestions
@Glamourcreations4490
That you for taking the time to put together this list. I will be retiring soon from my 9 to 5 and dream to start investing in hosting properties so this was very helpful. Sending positive energy your way ❤
