Describe your 2024 as a host in one word

Hosting 2024 Airbnb Community Center.jpeg

 

Hello everyone 👋

As the year comes to an end, many of us reflect on how the last 12 months have gone. Whether it was full of ups, some downs, surprises or interesting meets, I think it’s safe to say we’ve all had yet another big year.

 

With that in mind, I’d like to invite you to look back on 2024 together: can you think of one word that encapsulates the past year for you?

 

Looking forward to reading all your words of choice! 😃

Wishing you all the best, 
Rebecca

Hi Rebecca!

Thank you for keeping us in contact!

 

2024 on Airbnb as a host:

It's been up; it's been down; it's been bliss; it's been bizarre.

 

My ONE word for 2024 as an Airbnb "baby" (3 months; 3 guests), is :

       INITIATION

 

I have even more regard for the hard work that goes on behind the scenes from the awesome support teams and staff at Airbnb and looking forward to learning and growing!

 

Thank you all for the wonderful advice and suggestions- couldn't have continued without the support!

 

All the best

Accomplished.

 

2024 has been a truly accomplished year for me as a host. Navigating new challenges and seeing both this past summer and the upcoming one already fully booked has been incredibly rewarding. I’ve also enjoyed connecting with wonderful guests and contributing to this fantastic community.

Wishing everyone here a fulfilling and successful 2025!

Best regards,
Karen

Great word, @Lisetta3! Thank you so much for sharing. Has it been an excellent year on Airbnb, or in general? I’m hoping it’s the second option!

 

Wishing you a wonderful 2025! 😃

Enriching!

and fun!

It gave us a thrill to host guests and to get to know them and the why's of their visits. Our rental unit is not in a tourist destination and it's interesting to get some insights on the guests we host. We did get one "problematic" guest but overall I can say that we had a fantastic year 🙂

Looking forward to hearing from you.
