Pesky Problem
You’ve got a case of Airbnb hosting burnout.
You knew the honeymoon period of hosting wouldn’t last forever, but you never thought you would end up with a case of hosting burnout. After all, launching your Airbnb was a long term dream that finally came to fruition. But lately, the happy hustle and bustle of your hosting routine has started to devolve into drudgery. On the worst days, you’re daydreaming about closing up shop.
Is this you? If so, we promise this isn’t a terminal case of Airbnb hosting burnout! (And if you haven’t hit burnout yet, but you can feel that spark waning, keep reading. A little proactive planning can help you sidestep an enormous amount of frustration.)
Let's Try This
Bite-Size Solution
Flip the script and become an Airbnb guest.
Reigniting your excitement as a host is definitely possible. A combination of new systems, helping hands, and big-picture goal setting can usually jumpstart dormant enthusiasm. But before you start working on a strategic plan to dismantle the burnout, we’d bet you need a vacation. (Did you just nod and sigh?) It’s time to step away, clear your head, and relax.
We’re officially prescribing you a weekend away as a guest in someone else’s Airbnb. (Yep, even if that means you’ve got to press pause on your own operation for a day or two.) Flip the script and experience the joy of being an Airbnb guest. Nothing will reboot your appreciation faster or generate more hosting ideas than being on the other side of the Airbnb equation.

Here's Your First Step
Open the Airbnb app and start daydreaming.
So what’s your first step? You guessed it! Time to open the Airbnb app and start daydreaming. This could be a staycation at a local Airbnb in town. Or maybe you’re ready to pull the trigger on that trip you’ve been eyeing for years. Whatever your time and budget will allow, go for it.
If you can, book at least two nights, so you have a full day away. And as you’re scrolling, keep an eye out for aspirational Airbnbs, those places that make you feel downright giddy when you book. Those spots will give you the biggest dose of excitement for all that this incredible Airbnb community can offer.
