Now that we are getting a bit more settled in our new home I need to begin moving onto marketing and booking. I have homework to do.
I have a sound foundation of hospitality /bed and breakfast experience AND am lacking in the nuanced differences in the way that airbnb is handled, advertised, shared, marketed.
I need to connect with some folks who can share their experiences and offer suggestions.
I would suggest rather than Other you list as a Studio I think people filtering other are more into camping or treehouse not sure you fit in there.
Tweak your description a bit like it says lot of extras tell me some
Review your amenities yours looks low Include everything you offer extra pillows etc
Hey @Marie8425 , thank you so much for the feedback. Honestly, I was confused and felt a little limited by some of the options and the previous owners had it listed as a pool house and I didn’t see any place in there to create your own category like that so that was confusing to me but definitely I appreciate the information about, randomly being in other and the fact that other really might mean hey we’re looking for some thing that’s a little bit more unique and what we have isn’t super unique, but it is a great spot so I will take your advice on that and I will also go back through and review the amenities. We also have some unique amenities that aren’t listed in there so I’m hoping there’s an option to add your own , based on what ability to create a unique description is a little tricky that the options available to choose from seem to limited to me, but maybe I’m missing something
If you have unique amenities you highlight in your description. Your description is built from the multiple pages the Airbnb app gives you, Maybe look at some properties in your area read their descriptions to get ideas.
Also I think they were using pool house because it sets the expectation in the Hosts yard which may matter to some but not others.
I did not find any options to identify our space as 'studio' - I did make a few changes though that may address your suggestions.
I had previously completed ALL of the sections with our details, check in etc. and when I popped in to look at making those changes it looked as if none of my work was saved as all of those areas were blank again. Really peculiar.

I think Guest house is perfect. People will realize the Host is close and I think your changes in description are great. When making changes to the other pages sometimes I forget scroll down there is a save button that you have to click.
Since you are new Guests kind of expect the Airbnb New Host Discount if you can work that in to your p;rficing. It is like a sale but only for first 3 reservations.
Usually your first 3 will be Guests that need only a day or two so with the discount they figure if not good it is very short. You will do excellent you want to learn.
