Are you an Airbnb host looking to revamp your rental property? Making smart design choices can take your space from drab to fab, attracting more guests and earning you higher ratings & Super Host status!

Follow these tips from the interior design experts at Emberr to create an Airbnb rental that wows:

Focus on First Impressions

Curb appeal and a welcoming entrance set the tone when guests first arrive. Paint or power wash the exterior, install attractive lighting, and ensure the entry area is free of clutter. A clean, well-lit entrance makes a great first impression.

Maximize Multifunctional Furniture

Look for furniture that can serve multiple purposes in order to maximize space. Murphy beds, sofa beds, coffee tables with storage, and nesting tables save space while offering guests convenience.

Create Cohesive, Inviting Rooms

Decorate each room with a specific theme or color palette to give the space a polished, cohesive look. Incorporate decorative accents like throw pillows, area rugs, and artwork to create a welcoming atmosphere. Stick to a minimalist style to avoid clutter.

Upgrade with Strategic Color

Paint walls or accent walls in colors that evoke desired moods. Cool tones like blues and greens promote relaxation in bedrooms, warm neutrals encourage socializing in living areas, and energizing hues like yellows help productivity in home offices.

Let in Natural Light

Maximize natural light through large windows, glass doorways, and mirrors. Use sheer curtains to allow light in while maintaining privacy. Make sure window treatments match the room's decor. Proper lighting makes spaces appear larger and more inviting.

Define Areas with Rugs

Rugs visually define spaces within open concept rooms while adding color, texture, and warmth underfoot. Place area rugs under seating arrangements or beds to create intimate spaces within larger rooms.

Add Personality Through Accessories

Personalize with unique, memorable accents that reflect the local culture. Framed art, decorative objects, coffee table books, throw blankets, and accent pillows quickly add flair. Focus on high-impact spots like walls, tabletops, and seating areas when decorating.

Provide a Well-Equipped Kitchen

The kitchen should have all essential cooking tools and appliances, as well as attractive, coordinate dinnerware. To optimise storage, install organizational solutions like pegboards, racks, baskets, or drawer organizers.
