Should Your Airbnb Feel Like Home or an Adventure? Let's Find Out!

Updated: Aug 19

Hey there, Airbnb hosts and design lovers!

Picture this: you're torn between making your rental feel like a warm, cozy home or turning it into a unique, unforgettable experience. What do you choose? The secret sauce is knowing exactly what your guests want!




Home Sweet Home For many travelers, the appeal of an Airbnb or Vrbo over a hotel is the comfort and coziness that a well-designed home offers. These guests appreciate:

  • Comfy Vibes: Think squishy sofas, soft-as-clouds bedding, and kitchens where you can whip up a midnight snack.

  • Practical Perks: Things like a washer-dryer and fast Wi-Fi may not seem sexy, but they're total lifesavers!

  • Personal Touches: Books, board games, and local tips make your place feel super inviting.

These touches make sure your guests feel all warm and fuzzy inside.




Adventure Awaits! On the flip side, some travelers seek an escape from the ordinary. They desire an experience that's unique and memorable:

  • Bold Designs: Eye-popping decor and themed rooms can make your place Insta-famous! 📸

  • Cool Amenities: Think hot tubs, hammocks, and fire pits.

  • Must-Share Moments: Unique spots and quirky details that guests can't wait to share on social media.

It's all about creating an experience they’ll never forget!




Who's Your Guest? The magic happens when you really know who your guests are:

  • Location, Location, Location: Are you in a bustling urban center where guests will spend more time exploring outside, or in a serene countryside where they'll relish home-like relaxation?

  • Types of Travelers: Families might love comfort, while solo travelers or couples might be up for some adventure.

  • Stay Length: Long-term guests often prioritize comfort and amenities, whereas weekend travellers might prefer a unique, impactful experience.


Choosing the Right Path

Ultimately, the direction you choose should align with your guest’s desires and expectations. Hybrid solutions can also be effective—combining the best of both worlds. For instance, offer a stylish, thematic design that also includes practical, homey amenities.


By tailoring your space to meet your ideal guest's needs, you'll create a rental that doesn’t just accommodate but enchants and delights your visitors every time.
