Create Airbnb Guest Messages

A full set of saved message templates for every stage — from inquiry to review request.

The Prompt
You are an experienced Airbnb Superhost. Write a full set of guest message templates I can save and reuse.

Context:
- Property: [PROPERTY TYPE] in [LOCATION]
- Check-in style: [CHECK-IN, e.g. self check-in with a lockbox / in-person]
- House rules that matter: [KEY RULES]
- Local tips I love to share: [LOCAL TIPS]
- Tone: [TONE, e.g. friendly and relaxed / professional]

Deliver templates for:
1. Inquiry response (answers questions, nudges toward booking).
2. Booking confirmation / welcome message.
3. Pre-arrival message with check-in details (sent the day before).
4. Check-in-day message and a mid-stay check-in.
5. Check-out reminder and a post-stay thank-you that politely asks for a 5-star review.

Use placeholders like [GUEST NAME] and [DATE] so I can personalize each one, and keep them warm but concise.

What to fill in

Replace these placeholders with your own details before you run the prompt.

[PROPERTY TYPE]
Type of property.
[LOCATION]
City / area.
[CHECK-IN]
How guests check in.
[KEY RULES]
The house rules worth stating up front.
[LOCAL TIPS]
Recommendations you like to share.
[TONE]
How you want to come across.

How to use this prompt

  1. 1Save each template as an Airbnb saved message so you can send it in one tap.
  2. 2Keep the placeholders — a personalized name and date lifts reply and review rates.
  3. 3Ask for the review request to be gentle; pushy asks backfire on Airbnb.

Example input

Property: studio apartment in Bangalore. Check-in: self check-in with a smart lock. Rules: no parties, quiet after 10pm. Tips: nearby cafes and metro. Tone: friendly and relaxed.

What you'll get

A full template set — inquiry, confirmation, pre-arrival with smart-lock instructions, check-in-day and mid-stay, checkout reminder, and a warm post-stay thank-you with a soft 5-star review ask — all with [GUEST NAME]/[DATE] placeholders.

Pro tips

  • A mid-stay 'everything okay?' message catches small problems before they become a 3-star review.
  • Ask for the review after a genuinely good checkout, referencing something specific from their stay — it doubles response rates.
