Join the fastest growing and best rated community on Airbnb!
Over 50’s Hosts are breaking records!
Hosts in the 50+ age bracket are the fastest growing demographic in the Airbnb hosting community! Older adult hosts are also far more likely to receive 5 star reviews than any other age group.
So what do these hosts tell us they most enjoy about hosting on Airbnb?
-
New social connections.
Let’s face it, when we’ve lived a full life, we know how to connect with people and Airbnb provides an opportunity to meet and connect with interesting people from near and far.
Retirement or semi-retirement shouldn’t mean losing social connections, in fact it can be the perfect time to make new ones!
-
Extra income.
Every Airbnb guest pays an accommodation and cleaning fee, the additional income stream can often come in handy, whether it funds more trips away, meals out or some new gifts.
Why downsize when you can make an extra income from your extra space on Airbnb?
-
Sharing knowledge.
Have you got some local tips that visitors would love to know about? Those hidden away gems that only a few locals know?
That’s exactly why Airbnb guests love to stay with locals over a plain old hotel. If you plan to meet your guests you can share advice directly, alternatively we can create a beautiful house guide to share your hot local tips.
-
Providing an experience.
Have a unique skill or talent? Some guests are eager to learn a new skills.
We have one host who became a wedding celebrant and turned their home into a stunning wedding venue!
-
Creative outlet.
Unleash your creative side!
Setting up a space for Airbnb is a chance to showcase your creative talents. Design and decorate your space, add personal touches, make it authentic, and truly you. Tell your story.
-
Stay active.
For many hosts, Airbnb is an enjoyable way to stay busy and active, welcoming new guests keeps us on our toes and feeling fun and creative.
Providing a valuable service, while also making some special new friendship along the way.
I Want to start hosting but I have a few questions first . . .
I don’t like technology… and technology doesn’t like me.
That’s ok, we take care of that. We create your online listing, find guests, vet them, book them in, then let you know exactly who they are and when they will be arriving at your place. As long as you have a mobile phone and an email address, we can get you up and running.
How do I know my guests will be nice people?
Great question. We have a rigorous screening process which enables us to pre-select the guests to make sure they are experienced Airbnb travellers with good feedback and reviews from other hosts who have shared a home with them.
It sounds like this might cost a lot?
We love that over 50’s hosts are the fastest growing demographic on Airbnb and to celebrate this, we waive our annual membership fee of $245, which means you can get up and running completely free of charge.
No financial risk what so ever, all you need to invest is a bit of time to answer some questions about your space.
What about the cleaning?
Cleaning is a big part of Airbnb hosting, some hosts like to do this themselves, others hire a cleaner or a team of cleaners instead. Whatever option you take, the guest will pay a cleaning fee and its up to you how you spend it. We can also connect you with local cleaners if you would like us to.
Is it a lot of work?
If you enjoy meeting new people, then Airbnb is a lot of fun. If you don’t enjoy new people so much then it might feel a bit more like work.
We’re a team and we make it as easy as we can, we are here 24/7 to help at any time. We can coordinate any requests or issues with guests. If you’d like us to keep family in the loop, we can also include them in your messages so they know who’s coming and going from your place… and who knows, it might be another reason to drop by for a cuppa and a chat!
