Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky called out his own company in an interview with Bloomberg published Monday. AdvertisementAdvertisementAirbnb CEO Brian Chesky says it's time for the company to "get our house in order," in an interview with Bloomberg, and short-term rental hosts are thrilled. Airbnb host Ric Kenworthy, who manages over 90 properties in Arizona, says Chesky's comments were a long time coming. Chesky's site is a marketplace that connects hosts and travelers, and the CEO is struggling to keep both sides happy. As travelers continue to book short-term rentals, Chesky acknowledged the company "never fully built the foundation" needed for the current size of the company.

Airbnb and Vrbo demand is strong this summer, but a glut of supply continues to pinch hosts. But some hosts said, even with the demand, the headaches of hosting are no longer worth the money. Courtesy of Ryan VillinesAfter a grueling summer, Airbnb and Vrbo operators are deciding if the headaches of hosting are worth it. "I could be on vacation or out having drinks with friends, but I'm going to have to reply to Airbnb guests who can't get in or can't find the street," she told Insider. Are you a short-term-rental host deciding whether to stay in or leave the industry?

Americans are still booking short-term rentals for the summer at record rates, beating expectations. But the growing pool of Airbnb and Vrbo hosts means some hosts are seeing revenue drop up to 18%. Americans are still voraciously booking short-term rentals, despite economic uncertainty — and are even outpacing expectations. In January, analytics site AirDNA forecasted demand for short-term rentals, as measured by nights booked, would grow by 5% in 2023. "Travel brands and the service economy have outperformed expectations, and short-term rentals are no different," said Jamie Lane, chief economist at AirDNA.

Airbnb hosts are hotly debating the appropriateness of security cameras. Some guests and hosts say it's an invasion of privacy for vacationers. Arizona host Zach Narus says cameras provide a "peace of mind" to his guests, just as much as they do for him. Once a guest messaged Narus that there was a loud banging outside the property and asked him to use the security cameras to check for an intruder or wildlife. Disclosing the use of cameras, Narus says, discourages bookings that are looking to throw a party.
