These superhosts understand homesharing better than anyone else. I strongly recommend this book for homeshare host . . . It's perfect for both beginners and advanced hosts. Written by two business experts with eight years of homesharing experience, Airbnb superhosts Gabriela and Derek offer coaching to other hosts -- Chip Conley, Strategic Adviser for Hospitality and Leadership, Airbnb and bestselling author
Derek's and Gabriela's experience and competitor insights have helped me make decisions on how best to run my homeshare -- Jeff Sandon, homeshare host
Inspirational! If there is just one word to describe Gabriela and Derek this is it: inspirational. If you get the chance to work together, you will discover two people that are passionate, committed and extremely professional. Blend this with a truly genuine sense of hospitality and you can't help but be motivated to be a part of their world -- Geoff Turner, hotelier and educator, Anhong Consulting
This book has encouraged me to explore home sharing hospitality, a road map to becoming (and remaining) a Super Host. It has driven me to optimize the guest experience as well as our own, while off-setting part of my financial burden in a very expensive city.
The structure of the book chapters is clear, full of illustrative examples from real-life hosts, as well as useful tables and charts, with a bulleted summary of each chapter. That the authors are expert business and financial consultants themselves in their day jobs, helps with the clarity and professionalism of the book.
Great book, highly recommended to the millions of aspiring or seasoned home stay hosts around the world!
-- Romy S, homeshare host
