Guide to Airbnb Hosting: 9 Tips on How Couples Can Have a Relaxing Staycation

If you’re marketing your Airbnb rental as a staycation place for couples, then you should make sure that you follow-through on that.

Here are some ways you can create a couple’s haven with your Airbnb rental unit:

1. Have a Welcome Gift

In order for your rental unit to give a good first impression, it’s always nice to leave a welcome gift for your guests, especially if they’re couples.

If you can ask your guests beforehand what the purpose of their travel is, if they’re comfortable with that, then you can create a special welcome gift for them to enjoy.

2. Offer In-Home Massage Service

If you can connect with a local masseuse or are one yourself, then consider offering an in-home massage service to them.

Not only is it a special service that you can help you earn extra bucks, but it will also level up the service that you provide to your guests.

3. Invest in a Comfortable Bed

The center of your Airbnb rental is the bed. Thus, you should make sure that you maintain a clean and comfortable bed for your guests.

You may have hired an Airbnb turnaround service provider to clean your unit after a previous guest checked out, it’s still a good practice to replace the sheets and fluff the pillows to create a great impression.

4. Dress the Windows

Your windows aren’t just something you use to protect your rental from the sun or for privacy. It can create the right atmosphere if you know how to dress them.

Add a little something to it and consider it as part of the decor of your rental.

5. Set a Romantic Table

Even if your guests are only having a staycation in your rental, you should make sure they feel like they’re in a romantic restaurant nonetheless.

Thus, you should try and arrange your table with that picture in mind. Maybe adding some flowers or great tablemats or a candle will add that nice touch.

6. Set Up an Indoor/Outdoor Hut Tub

If you can, try and upgrade your Airbnb rental unit by installing an indoor or outdoor hot tub.

Getting things steamy between your guests will make them appreciate that good experience. This could even lead to a five-star rating from them!

7. Plug Some Nightlight

Adding nightlight will make things more intimate. It also makes things safe in case a guest needs to get up in the middle of the night and have to walk to the bathroom or kitchen ‒ without the need to blind his or her partner by turning on the fluorescent light.

8. Provide Wi-Fi and Other Passwords

Of course, your couple guests will want to post photos of their staycation or they’re probably going to watch TV in your rental for their staycation. Thus, make sure that you have a strong Wi-Fi connection and provide passwords to your guests.

9. Provide Breakfast in Bed

Providing breakfast for your guests will add that very special homemade and warm touch to their stay that they will definitely appreciate. And since it saves them money and time from going out, you’ll likely receive positive reviews on this regard from your guests.

Adding that extra touch to your Airbnb rental listing is something that your guests will appreciate. At the same time, it will ensure that you get positive reviews from guests. Try some of these tips and see how it works out for you!
