Tips for Making Your Marbella Airbnb Listing Stand Out

Marbella boasts a staggering 25,000 listings on Airbnb, and if you’re looking to shine in this competitive market, we’ve got some valuable tips to share with you.

At LPM, we’ve been hosting guests since 2014, and after over 10,000 reservations, we’ve compiled this article to unveil tips that can truly benefit those who are just starting out as hosts or considering putting their property up for rent.

Is Listing on Airbnb the Right Choice?

The answer is a resounding “yes” if you consider that 57% of reservations in the Marbella area are made through Airbnb. One-bedroom and two-bedroom properties are the most sought after by guests.

Crafting an Appealing Listing

Your journey begins with creating the listing. Start by choosing an enticing title and an eye-catching cover photo that beckons potential guests to click and explore further.

Showcase your Space with Stunning Photos

Inside your listing, provide around 30 high-quality photos of your property, allowing potential guests to visualize themselves in the space. These images should present your property in its best light, creating an inviting virtual experience. Include a few photos of the neighborhood to give guests a sense of the surroundings.

Emphasize Cleanliness and Minimalism

Ensure your property is spotless and free from clutter. When guests arrive, you want to give them the feeling that they are entering a clean, welcoming space, not someone else’s home. Provide essentials such as salt, pepper, oil, soap, shampoo, towels, and linens.

In terms of decoration, opt for a minimalist approach with neutral and white colors. Avoid overly personalized or highly themed décor, as it may not appeal to all potential guests.

Set the Right Mood with Lighting

Choose neutral lighting that is neither too cold (like an office) nor too warm (yellowish), as this can give your property an outdated vibe.

Personal Touch and Welcome Packages

If you’d like to add a personal touch or offer a welcoming package to your guests, it’s always appreciated. Small gestures can go a long way in making guests feel valued and comfortable during their stay.
