So let's talk about Airbnb's Superhost status. Airbnb has done a lot of work with their algorithm, and being a Superhost (which we are at Open Air Homes—we're proud Superhosts) gives you better placement on the site.
When there's better placement, there's more visibility for your home. You're going to get more views, more bookings, and a higher occupancy.
A lot of times, hosts come to us because as someone managing their own home, it's very hard to maintain the Superhost status. There are a lot of requirements to meet, and so these homeowners often don't get Superhost status. As a result, their home is seen less, their occupancy drops, and they make less money than they'd like.
When you partner with Open Air Homes—we've been a trusted partner of Airbnb for a long time—we already have Superhost status. We work very hard to maintain that status for every single one of our homeowners, and what this does is it builds trust within the industry. Guests see that this homeowner or property management company is a Superhost, and they know the home is going to be well-maintained, well taken care of, and they'll have a great experience. That's really what the Superhost status and badge are designed for.
Recently, Airbnb launched something called Guest Favorites. We're very lucky that many of our homes qualify. Guest Favorites is an even higher level of recognition, indicating these homes are in the top 5% to 10% within the community. Many of our homes have achieved this status and rank among the top homes on all of Airbnb in the entire area.
From the moment your home is managed by Open Air Homes, it gains Airbnb Superhost visibility, driving more views, bookings, and revenue. Superhost status boosts your home’s placement, earning higher occupancy and premium rates, and building trust with potential guests.

Yes! By partnering with Open Air Homes, your property is included under our Superhost badge.
To maintain this status, Airbnb requires hosts to have a 90%+ response rate, an average rating of 4.8+ stars, and a cancellation rate below 1%. While most of these requirements are easily met, cancellations can be costly—both in penalties and in lost Superhost status.
Airbnb enforces strict fees for canceled bookings, and at Open Air Homes, we require all confirmed reservations to be honored to protect our overall business and maintain Superhost standing. By partnering with us, you agree to this policy, ensuring a seamless experience for both guests and homeowners.
As Superhosts, our entire portfolio benefits from higher booking rates, premium pricing, and increased guest trust. Guests actively seek out Superhost properties, leading to higher occupancy and stronger overall earnings.
While we can’t assign an exact dollar figure to the revenue increase, in a competitive industry, top visibility on booking platforms is a major advantage—helping to secure more bookings and long-term profitability.
Cancellations negatively impact Superhost status and can result in financial penalties from Airbnb. At Open Air Homes, our service agreement requires homeowners to honor all confirmed bookings to protect our portfolio and ensure a seamless guest experience.
That said, we recognize that true emergencies happen. Maintenance issues such as a burst pipe, fire, or other severe property damage, as well as global emergencies, may qualify under Airbnb’s extenuating circumstances policy. In these rare cases, we will work with the homeowner and Airbnb to find the best resolution.
We optimize listings using dynamic pricing, professional photography, SEO-driven descriptions, and strategic guest interactions to ensure top placement in Airbnb search results.
As of 2024, pricing plays an even greater role in Airbnb’s ranking algorithm. While our goal is to increase pricing over time, setting rates too far above market value can significantly reduce visibility and hurt booking performance. We carefully balance competitive pricing with long-term revenue growth, ensuring your property remains both highly ranked and highly profitable.
As discusses, maintaining our Airbnb superhost in SoCal status is critical for our mutual success, and critical for top placement in their search results.
Yes! We actively work to elevate properties beyond Superhost status by enhancing guest experience, refining amenities, and maintaining consistent 5-star ratings.
The Guest Favorite badge is location-based and awarded to top-performing listings in each area. While it’s not essential for success, it provides an additional competitive edge. Our goal is to position every home in this exclusive category, maximizing visibility and booking potential.
