Anyone know anything about AirBnB Plus?
I’m curious if anyone out there has any insight into the AirBnB Plus program? It’s basically their way of denoting the top properties, along with AirBnB Luxe. But there is basically zero info out there on how they go about selecting/vetting these properties, or if there is some sort of application process. I have a rental that seems like it should tick all their boxes, but don’t know how to get them to bring it into the program. Any insight would be appreciated!

@Lucas Martinez they asked us to do airbnb plus and airbnb sent their representative and a  designer out to a few of our properties and they told us that one of our properties in particular was the house they wanted the most on airbnb plus. In the end we decided it didn’t make sense to do as they take a lot more money and you have to be exclusive and can’t rent it out on other platforms or directly. That by itself wouldn’t have killed it for us if it was say 20% higher revenue after there extra cut or whatever they claim but the truth is my properties were already making way more than any properties in my market on airbnb plus (the main reason they were chasing after us so hard) they also wanted us to spend 10K on design changes when we already had multiple properties that out preformed all the houses on airbnb plus in my market that had taken the design advice. I think it could be good for some people but in our case we had already optimized better for less than what they could offer.
