Hi @Bruce444 😊

Thank you for bringing up this topic in the community!

 

I’m mentioning other Superhosts to see if they have any helpful advice to share with you about this: @Alex12990@Amrita8@Angela1056@Beverley120 and @Bob297.

Thank you in advance, everyone!

 

Warm regards, 🌻

@Bruce444 
If you don't meet the requirements for a Superhost, then it's indeed not possible.
I currently also have fewer reservations through Airbnb because we are temporarily not renting out one apartment. I make sure my reviews are very good and remain so, and beyond that, I don't worry about it.

Ciao @Bruce444 , even if you only rent in the spring/summer/autumn months you can maintain your Superhost title if you get a t least 10 bookings during the year. 
We rent our house from mid-April to mid-October and with 10 bookings in this period we have always managed to maintain the Superhost status because every 3 months the requirements are assessed over the past 12 months. 

Hi Bruce,

 

Airbnb is strict with their requirements:

 

  1. Hosted at least 10 reservations, or 3 reservations that total at least 100 nights
  2. Maintained a 90% or higher response rate
  3. Maintained a less than 1% cancellation rate, with exceptions for cancellations due to Major Disruptive Events or other valid reasons

It is recommended to lower the price or offer a generous discount to attract more guest. It is also helpful to advertise on social media to boost visibility of your property.

 

I hope this helps.

 

All the best,

this is what happened to me. Lost it due to no guests in the winter. Disappointing but I’m not going to get  stressed about it
