Thanks for the tag. The listing is perfect for someone who just joined. The only issue is your amenities. The "Essentials " have been crossed out which means you don't provide them. Airbnb rules are you should provide essentials for your Guests to prevent any future cases or mention it in the description that you will not provide or charge linen fee. NB that may reduce booking from Guest you may want to book!

Congrats on starting your Airbnb!

I agree with @Moesha1  that providing essentials is what people look for so they don’t have to pack. 

I might suggest that you open the curtains in the pictures, when possible, to let natural light in. 

I’d also suggest captions under each photo to say a few words about each space. Example, does your kitchen have a coffee pot? Do you offer any coffee to get your guests started? 

Think of it this way. Guests don’t know what is great about your kitchen, the shower, the pool, etc., until you tell them. 

Best wishes!
