Now, Airbnb is stepping into that space, allowing travelers to enjoy personalized, high-quality services during their stays, or even without booking a stay at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently available in\u00a0260 cities, Airbnb Services span\u00a010 categories, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Private chefs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Photography<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Massage therapy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spa treatments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Personal training<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hair styling<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Makeup services<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Manicures<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prepared meals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Catering<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These services are a win for guests, but what about hosts?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Hosts Can Benefit from Airbnb Services<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Airbnb now allows qualified hosts to apply as service providers. You can register at&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.airbnb.com\/setup\/services\/create\">Airbnb&#8217;s setup page<\/a>, but there are a few requirements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Proven expertise, typically\u00a010 years of experience\u00a0in your service field<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Completion of Airbnb\u2019s\u00a0identity verification<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Submission of any\u00a0required licenses or certifications<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A strong reputation is preferred, for example, being a Michelin-starred chef or an award-winning photographer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you&#8217;re not providing the service yourself, you can still\u00a0recommend or partner with third-party professionals. This can significantly improve your listing\u2019s appeal and increase bookings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where Can Services Be Offered?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Airbnb Services are&nbsp;<strong>location-flexible<\/strong>. You can host them in your Airbnb property, the guest\u2019s location, or even in your own studio or business space. As long as you meet Airbnb\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.airbnb.com\/resources\/hosting-services\/a\/whats-required-to-host-airbnb-services-744\">standards and requirements<\/a>, you&#8217;re eligible to apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, this is not just an extra feature\u2014it\u2019s a real opportunity for hosts to\u00a0diversify income,\u00a0enhance guest experiences, and stay competitive in an increasingly professionalized short-term rental landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Services-flow-2025-Airbnb-Summer-Release-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2405\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Services-flow-2025-Airbnb-Summer-Release-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Services-flow-2025-Airbnb-Summer-Release-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Services-flow-2025-Airbnb-Summer-Release-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Services-flow-2025-Airbnb-Summer-Release-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Services-flow-2025-Airbnb-Summer-Release-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/hostex.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Services-flow-2025-Airbnb-Summer-Release-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Airbnb Experiences: A Fresh Upgrade with New Opportunities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.airbnb.com\/host\/experiences\">Airbnb Experiences<\/a> has been a key focus for the platform in recent years.

The platform now prioritizes authenticity, professionalism, and high guest ratings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s New in Airbnb Experiences?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To stand out from other platforms, Airbnb is doubling down on originality and social interaction. New upgrades include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Airbnb Originals<\/strong>: These are premium, one-of-a-kind experiences hosted by fascinating people worldwide. Some Originals are even led by global celebrities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Social features<\/strong>: Guests can now view who else has booked before confirming. During the experience, they can message others\u2014individually or as a group\u2014and stay connected afterward.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These changes aim to make every Airbnb Experience more personal, meaningful, and memorable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Hosts Should Pay Attention<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Airbnb Experiences is separate from Airbnb stays.
