Preparing Your Home to Airbnb

Updated: Oct 19


When preparing your home for Airbnb guests, organization is key. Let me guide you through a practical approach that ensures both you and your guests have a seamless experience.


Step 1: Designate a Room for Storage


Start by deciding which room you'll lock off for private use. Ideally, this room should have a separate door to the outside, allowing you easy access without disturbing guests. The proximity of this room to the main living area is advantageous for quick transitions. Inside, place dressers against each wall, designating space for each family member. This becomes the central spot for all personal items.


Step 2: Organize Linens and Personal Items


Each bedroom should have a dresser that holds linens specifically for those beds. This streamlines the laundry process as everything can be stored in one space, making it easy to close off when needed. For your personal storage room, introduce a shelving system. This is for personal mementos like pictures, drawings, or anything you may want to keep private but still have organized.


Step 3: Manage Personal Items and Security


When you prepare for guests, remember to remove personal items such as fridge magnets and secure digital devices. An important tip is to lock accounts like Prime or any purchase-capable apps with a code. This ensures privacy and prevents any unauthorized purchases.


Step 4: Consider Technological Solutions for Accessibility


Incorporate a digital lock system that you can control from your phone. This adds a layer of security and convenience, allowing you to manage access remotely. Consider this for your main entry point.


Step 5: Personal Touch


Before leaving, I remember to take down personal items like the corkboard of pictures and drawings but plan to bring them out upon your return home. This small step personalizes your space for your return while maintaining professionalism for guests.


By organizing your home with these steps, you'll set a clear boundary between personal and guest spaces. This not only elevates the guest experience by removing clutter and ensuring they have all necessities within easy reach but also allows you the peace of mind that your personal belongings are secure. Your home remains both a welcoming space for visitors and retains its heart for you.
