Your Airbnb should feel like a home to your guests.  After all, home is where the heart is and to make your guests fall in love with your Airbnb, you need to be certain you have the kitchen essentials.

To help you hit the mark for your Airbnb, we’ve made a list of kitchen essentials needed for your guests.

1. Cooking Device

What separates Airbnb from hotels is that they provide guests with the freedom to cook what they want. For some, cooking allows them to save money and stick to their diet better. Prepare a kitchen essentials checklist and ensure you have a stovetop, microwave, oven, and toaster.

It’s best to also include oven mitts and hot pads for safety reasons.

2. Cookware, Cutlery and Utensils

Make life easier for your guests by providing them with the essential cookware and utensils. For starters, put a cutting board in a kitchen to make cooking easier for guests whenever they want to cut up onions, tomatoes or other vegetables.

Secondly, have pans for your guests as well. If they want to fry eggs, this will come in handy. It’s always recommended to include a variety of utensils in the kitchen, such as a whisk, big spoon, spatula etc.

Don’t forget basic cutlery! It may sound small, but it goes a long way in reminding your guests that you’ve thought about the finer details of your Airbnb kitchen essentials.

3. Fridge and Freezer

A kitchen is incomplete without a fridge and freezer. You never know how long guests will be staying in your Airbnb. Sometimes they’ll go grocery shopping and want to store their shopping items in the fridge or sometimes they have leftovers. The best Airbnb hosts are prepared for every guest.

4. Hand Towels and Kitchen Cloths

The kitchen can be quite a messy place for guests and that’s why you’ll need to equip the kitchen essentials like hand towels and kitchen cloths. If you need fresh and absorbent kitchen hand towels, just get in touch with Laundryheap Linen to book an order! We also offer you kitchen cloths – giving your guests the choice to dry dishes effectively and to wipe spills!

5. Cups and Plates

When thinking about cups and plates, the golden rule of thumb is that it depends on the number of guests. The higher the guest count in a room, the higher number of cups and plates. However, if there is a family staying, make sure you have plastic cups and plates. 

6. Kettle and Coffee Machine

Lastly, it’s best to have the option of a kettle and a coffee machine. People staying in an Airbnb usually have busy lifestyles and a cup of coffee will keep them going! Have sugar and milk in place and a variety of tea choices, not just English Breakfast tea.

Hosting guests is one of the most rewarding things from a host’s perspective. You are providing comfort and all the kitchen essentials they need to feel right at home.
