Adding an Amenity

Adding an Amenity

On suggestion of an AirBnB chat associate I am posting the following This is Jex Wilson PGA Master Golf Teaching Professional living in Florida. I wanted to reach out to any Super Hosts that might be interested in adding a "Golf School" amenity option. This could be an attractive option that could separate you from surrounding hosts. If interested please contact me at

@Jex4 Sorry but this is almost as daft as me wanting to add a croquet lawn as an amenity option. 

Golf school probably needs a little more clarity

Clients looking for lodging see that there is an option of participating in a golf instruction program being conducted near their AirBnB lodging

@Jex4 I suspect there are probably golf courses (and hence professionals) available to give instruction within 10 miles or less of almost every Airbnb in the UK.  Its similar to suggesting that a local supermarket or fuel station be added as an amenity.

There is where the separation begins

The quality of the facilities and the instruction

@Jex4 Ok so now you are expecting Airbnb to vet the amenity list to ensure the golf schools are up to a certain standard? They don't even vet the properties they list but leave this to the review system.

If you want to market your services to hosts in Florida I would suggest you invest in advertising/promoting your service to these hosts. @Jex4  Then you could ask them if they would include information about your service in their guest books if you offered them a discount/promotion for their guests. 

 

I'm not sure who this 'airbnb chat associate' is that recommended that you approach hosts to add Golf School to their amenities was but I would suggest they don't fully understand how Airbnb works. There isn't an option as far as I am aware to add 'golf school' as an amenity. Amenities are normally to do with the listing ie swimming pool/dishwasher etc.

 

I have been hosting for eight years and have never had a guest interested in playing golf/getting golf tuition.
