Consequently, the badge is dynamically awarded to qualifying properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far, millions of listings worldwide have earned this shiny new badge, greatly enhancing their visibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Are the Benefits of the Airbnb Guest Favorite Badge?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When you search for accommodations on Airbnb, you&#8217;ll notice they are actively promoting the \u201cGuest Favorites\u201d feature. Listings with the Guest Favorite Badge are prioritized at the top of search results. Additionally, there\u2019s a dedicated filter that allows guests to specifically search for \u201cGuest Favorites.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This new badge effectively shifts the prestigious Superhost status to a secondary role, making it seem less significant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Get the Airbnb Guest Favorite Badge?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned earlier, the Airbnb Guest Favorite Badge is evaluated based on historical ratings and reviews. However, this assessment is updated daily. With millions of stays occurring every day, Airbnb\u2019s system automatically evaluates listings based on guest feedback related to overall experience, service quality, and reliability. This ensures that only the properties currently loved by guests earn the badge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The specific criteria for evaluation are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>At least 5 reviews from guests.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your property must have an average rating of 4.9 stars or higher.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Based on guest feedback, your listing needs to meet the following criteria:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Easy check-in<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spotless cleanliness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accurate description<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Great communication<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Excellent location<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Value for money<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You must have a cancellation rate of less than 1%\u3002<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There should be no recent quality-related complaints from guests.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"601\" src=\"https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iShot_2024-10-18_19.29.20-1024x601.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1703\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iShot_2024-10-18_19.29.20-1024x601.png 1024w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iShot_2024-10-18_19.29.20-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iShot_2024-10-18_19.29.20-768x451.png 768w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iShot_2024-10-18_19.29.20.png 1328w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Is the Difference Between Guest Favorites and Superhost on Airbnb?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, the evaluation criteria for the Airbnb Guest Favorite Badge and <a href=\"https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/airbnb-superhost\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Superhost<\/a> status are quite similar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what exactly are the differences between them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. <strong>Award Recipients<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Superhost status is awarded to the host, reflecting the overall performance of all properties they manage. In contrast, the Guest Favorite Badge is awarded to the individual listing, focusing on the quality and performance of that specific property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Superhost<\/strong>: If you have 3 listings and become a Superhost, all three will display that they are hosted by a Superhost. However, if one listing underperforms and you lose your Superhost status, all three will revert to standard host status.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Guest Favorites<\/strong>: If all three of your listings earn the Guest Favorites Badge, and one loses it due to poor performance, the others remain unaffected.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. <strong>Evaluation Criteria<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Both require hosts to have a cancellation rate of less than 1%. However, the main difference lies in the review requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Superhost<\/strong>: Requires an overall rating of at least 4.8 across all listings. Hosts must complete at least 10 trips or nights within a year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Guest Favorites<\/strong>: Requires a rating of at least 4.9 for the specific listing, with a minimum of five positive reviews, focusing on review quantity rather than total bookings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. <strong>Assessment Frequency<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Superhost<\/strong>: This status is evaluated quarterly, meaning you retain it until the next assessment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Guest Favorites<\/strong>: Evaluated daily using AI and machine learning, meaning any new guest reviews can lead to gaining or losing the badge. This daily evaluation adds pressure for hosts to maintain high standards continuously.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iShot_2024-10-18_19.26.09-1024x443.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1702\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iShot_2024-10-18_19.26.09-1024x443.png 1024w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iShot_2024-10-18_19.26.09-300x130.png 300w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iShot_2024-10-18_19.26.09-768x332.png 768w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iShot_2024-10-18_19.26.09.png 1468w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. <strong>Priority in Search Results<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Listings with the Guest Favorites Badge appear at the top of search results.

However, as the leading player in the short-term rental market, it faces increasing competition and challenges. Public sentiment indicates that more and more people feel Airbnb is more expensive compared to other OTA platforms, which is certainly not favorable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To encourage guests to stay with Airbnb, the company needs to find ways to motivate hosts to lower their prices. Yet, directly ordering hosts to reduce prices is clearly not feasible. Instead, the new Guest Favorite Badge serves to stimulate competition among hosts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an Airbnb host, to secure more bookings, you must ensure that more guests can see your listing. This means working hard to earn and maintain the Guest Favorite Badge. To achieve this badge, you need to garner more five-star reviews. To get those reviews, you must provide an exceptional value-for-money experience. In other words, your service needs to be top-notch, and your pricing must be competitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This creates a perfect feedback loop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"746\" src=\"https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Airbnb-Guest-Favorite-Badge-vs-Superhost-status-Display-on-the-Airbnb-Website-1024x746.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1699\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Airbnb-Guest-Favorite-Badge-vs-Superhost-status-Display-on-the-Airbnb-Website-1024x746.png 1024w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Airbnb-Guest-Favorite-Badge-vs-Superhost-status-Display-on-the-Airbnb-Website-300x219.png 300w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Airbnb-Guest-Favorite-Badge-vs-Superhost-status-Display-on-the-Airbnb-Website-768x560.png 768w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Airbnb-Guest-Favorite-Badge-vs-Superhost-status-Display-on-the-Airbnb-Website.png 1464w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Improve Your Chances of Earning the Badge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you understand the importance and significance of the Airbnb Guest Favorites Badge, it\u2019s time to make the necessary changes and adjustments to your strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/pricing-strategy-for-vacation-rental-property\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Optimize Your Pricing Strategy<\/a><\/strong>: You must offer attractive pricing to increase your chances of bookings.
