When you list your home it has ZERO trustability ; no reviews and no bookings.
But, when we list your home, under our Flag – CapeHolidays, your home is seen as a SuperHost home immediately. Our GOODWILL becomes yours.
To be SuperHosts:
We must maintain a 4.8 star rating with positive reviews (more on criteria). Something we have achieved:
2021 SuperHost Stats for CapeHolidays
A few years ago when we only had about 500 reviews.
As you can see we score 4.9 out 5 for every of the nearly 600 guests who reviewed us. Designed for success from 2009.
For this reason, we are SuperHosts and very proud of it (see our profile at Airbnb).
Obviously, we can, with confidence, say we are a successful professional Airbnb Agency in Cape Town.
Because of this Badge of Trust, we share it with owners who are willing to work with us and have remarkable accommodation.
Unfortunately, choosing remarkability is not that easy. Why? Because the final judge is the very critical guest who paid to stay and have earned the right to review your home.
These guests come with high expectations. If your home fails at the first booking it will be uphill to recover.
When we choose, the owner and/or the home, incorrectly we could lose our SuperHost status. Therefore, we must be supercritical before a holiday home is added to our portfolio.
Guests who book and see our SuperHost badge know:
- Superhosts are experienced hosts who provide a shining example for other hosts, and extraordinary experiences for their guests.
- When we reached Superhost status, a SuperHost badge automatically appears on our listing and profile to help guests identify us.
- Airbnb checks Superhosts’ activity four times a year, to ensure that the program highlights the people who are most dedicated to providing outstanding hospitality.
In other words, SuperHosts attract more business because of established trust. This overcomes the lack of trust you have when you list your home from ground-zero. It takes time and lower rates to attract guests when you are new and competing with the masses out there.
I have said it:
We choose our owners and homes very carefully.
We are a team working together and the sky’s the limit. And there is nothing like reading reviews from happy guests. Wait. You’ll see. It’s fun to bank good money while everyone is happy!
