Summary

AI-generated

Airbnb hosts renting for 30+ days need to be aware of a new default setting that can impact bookings. The platform now defaults to instant book for the first five reservations, after which a deeper setting allows hosts to manually accept or decline all guests.

Key insights

  • Airbnb's default setting now includes instant book for the first five reservations for new listings or after a reset, which may not be ideal for 30+ day rentals.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Failing to adjust Airbnb's default booking settings for 30+ day rentals can lead to unwanted reservations being automatically accepted, potentially causing issues for landlords.
