We are Airbnb Superhosts and Vrbo Premier Hosts Loz and Trish McKenna and through this site, we hope to share lessons learned and those we’re still learning as we work to maintain and improve our Superhost and Premier Host status. On this site, we’ll share tips on how to get started as an Airbnb and/or Vrbo host, how to improve your ratings or get 5-star reviews on Airbnb and/or Vrbo, as well as how to achieve and maintain Airbnb Superhost or Vrbo Premier Host status.

Becoming an Airbnb and Vrbo Host

We started as Airbnb and Vrbo hosts in 2020 after purchasing a cabin in Virginia that was already a short-term rental property. But the property needed a lot of work to bring it back to its former glory – not only in appearance but in ratings.

We’ve learned so much since then, improved on the cabin dramatically, and since that time, have purchased another and very different property that we also list on Airbnb and Vrbo.

This site is dedicated to sharing what we’ve learned as hosts, from what to do and what not to do, to quick fixes and longer-term property investment ideas. We hope you’ll find value in this site. Cheers!
