Airbnb Hosts Hanging Out in the Kitchen

What to Do When a Potential Guest is Sending Warning Flags

What can you do when your gut is sending you warning signs about a guest booking?

While you don’t want to be individually vetting guests, you do want to make sure that they’re a good fit for your properties – especially if you have specific rules, guidelines, or qualifications. Airbnb is on your side when it comes to making sure guests stay honest.

We’re going to outline some of the things Airbnb already does to help hosts (including identity verification), as well as some of the “do”s and “don’t”s to keep you safe.

@bluejayhaven

It’s time for #strsharesunday and today we are sharing Blue Jay Haven!

Rebecca is your host, and she’s been hashtagging us for awhile. We see you, Rebecca! It’s your time to shine!  

Rebecca is really crushing the IG highlight game. She lets you know where you can get good cocktails, good food, and have some good sightseeing in her area. Other highlights we love: the reviews highlight, the “meet us” highlight so guests can get to know their hosts, and the renovation highlight so you can see her process and the before and after of her properties.

This helps connect the guest to the host and the property, and really helps show the time, love and care put into the property. If the guest feels more connected, they are more likely to treat the space the way it should be treated.  

We love the full, well-rounded picture and story telling that Rebecca has accomplished with her IG highlights! Go check her out for some inspo!

We would love to feature YOU, so don’t forget to use #STRShareSunday to get your chance!
