Dear Airbnb Team,
I’m writing as a long-time host to express how valuable the “Add Notes” feature was on the Airbnb calendar, particularly for blocked dates. The recent removal of this function has created an operational gap for many hosts like myself who rely on clear internal record-keeping to manage our properties effectively.
Beyond simply noting personal or family use of a property, the “Add Notes” feature was essential for tracking a range of property-related activities. This includes scheduled maintenance, deep cleans, staging days, pest control visits, inspections, and other operational needs that may require blocking dates temporarily. Without the ability to add context to these blocks, it’s much more difficult to keep track of why dates were reserved and to coordinate with staff or co-hosts managing the listing.
I respectfully ask that Airbnb consider reinstating this feature—either as part of the standard calendar tools or within the Professional Hosting Tools interface. It was a simple but powerful tool that greatly enhanced our ability to run an organized and efficient hosting operation.
Thank you for your attention and for continuing to improve the hosting experience.
Warm regards,
Kendall Ermshar
SuperHost
