As an Airbnb host, it is essential to keep your property well-stocked with necessary supplies to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable guest experience. From toiletries and cleaning supplies to kitchen essentials and bedding, regular supply restocking is crucial to maintaining a positive guest experience and receiving positive reviews.

However, keeping up with restocking can be time-consuming and challenging for busy hosts. That's where  comes in - we offer supply restocking services to take the hassle out of maintaining your Airbnb property.

Why Supply Restocking is Important for Airbnb Properties

Regular supply restocking is essential for maintaining a successful Airbnb property. Guests expect to have all necessary supplies readily available to them during their stay, including toiletries, linens, cleaning products, and kitchen essentials. Failure to provide these items can result in a negative guest experience and negative reviews, which can ultimately impact bookings and revenue.

To restock supplies effectively, hosts should keep an inventory of all necessary items and establish a restocking schedule based on guest demand and usage patterns. It's also important to consider the quality of the supplies being provided, as guests expect high-quality products that meet their needs. By prioritizing supply restocking, hosts can ensure a positive guest experience and build a strong reputation in the Airbnb community.

Types of Supplies to Restock

When it comes to selecting and purchasing supplies for an Airbnb property, hosts should consider the needs and preferences of their guests. Some common supplies that need to be restocked include toiletries such as soap, shampoo, and toilet paper, cleaning supplies such as disinfectant, paper towels, and trash bags, and kitchen supplies such as coffee, tea, and cooking oil.

Hosts can also consider providing additional amenities such as snacks, bottled water, and laundry detergent to enhance the guest experience. It's important to keep in mind that these additional amenities should not significantly increase the cost of hosting and should be factored into the rental rate.

Professional Supply Restocking Services

Professional supply restocking services can offer a range of benefits for Airbnb hosts. In addition to saving hosts time and effort, these services can also provide cost savings by purchasing supplies in bulk and ensuring that inventory is used efficiently. Furthermore, professional restocking services can help hosts maintain a consistent level of quality for their guests, which can lead to better reviews and increased bookings.

When selecting a supply restocking service, hosts should consider factors such as the cost of the service, the types of supplies that are included, and the frequency of restocking. Hosts should also inquire about the quality of the supplies that will be provided, as well as any additional services that may be offered.

It is important for hosts to choose a reputable and reliable service provider that has experience in the vacation rental industry. Hosts can do their own research online, ask for recommendations from other hosts, or consult with a professional management company like RedAwning Airbnb Management to find a trusted supply restocking service.

The Benefits of Professional Airbnb Management

Hiring a professional Airbnb management company for supply restocking can provide many benefits for hosts. Professional management companies like RedAwning Airbnb Management can offer regular inventory checks and restocking services to ensure that your guests have all the necessary supplies they need throughout their stay. Additionally, they can help you save time and money by purchasing supplies in bulk and taking advantage of discounts.

Other benefits of professional management include their expertise in identifying and addressing supply needs that hosts may overlook, and their ability to make recommendations based on guest feedback to continually improve the guest experience. With a professional management company, hosts can have peace of mind knowing that their property is always fully stocked and ready to welcome guests.

Best Practices for Airbnb Supply Restocking

Supply restocking is an important aspect of maintaining a successful Airbnb property. Here are some best practices for hosts to follow:

  • Keep an inventory: It's important to keep track of what supplies you have on hand and what needs to be restocked. Create an inventory list and update it regularly.
  • Establish a restocking schedule: Set a regular schedule for restocking your supplies, based on how frequently they are used. This will help ensure that you never run out of essential items.
  • Address guest feedback: If guests provide feedback about a supply that is running low or missing, make sure to address it promptly. Restock the item as soon as possible and let the guest know that it has been taken care of.
  • Order in bulk: Consider ordering supplies in bulk to save money and reduce the need for frequent restocking.
  • Monitor expiration dates: Be sure to check the expiration dates on items such as toiletries and food products, and replace them before they expire.

A well-stocked property is essential for guest satisfaction and positive reviews. By following these best practices, hosts can ensure that their guests have everything they need for a comfortable stay.

Key Takeaway

Regular supply restocking is a crucial aspect of maintaining a successful Airbnb property. A well-stocked property can enhance guest satisfaction, leading to positive reviews and increased bookings and revenue. Hiring a professional management company like RedAwning Airbnb Management can provide hosts with the convenience and cost savings of supply inventory and restocking services. By implementing best practices such as keeping track of inventory and addressing guest feedback, hosts can ensure that their property is always well-stocked and ready for their guests' needs.

FAQ

What is vacation rental management?
Vacation rental management involves overseeing a property rented out for short-term stays, typically through platforms like Airbnb, Vrbo, or Booking.com. It includes tasks like marketing the property, handling bookings, communicating with guests, arranging cleanings, and ensuring the home is maintained. Companies like RedAwning take on these responsibilities for homeowners, aiming to maximize rental income while minimizing the owner’s day-to-day involvement.
How does Airbnb management work?
Airbnb management works by delegating the operational aspects of hosting on Airbnb to a professional service or individual. For RedAwning, this means we create and optimize your listing, distribute it across Airbnb and 50 more platforms, manage reservations, handle guest inquiries, and process payments. The homeowner provides the property and sets preferences, while the manager ensures it’s booked and guest-ready, often for a percentage of the rental revenue.
What are the benefits of a professional Airbnb manager?
A professional Airbnb manager saves you time and stress by handling guest communication, pricing, and logistics. With RedAwning, you get broader exposure through listings on 50+ platforms, dynamic pricing to boost earnings, and 24/7 guest support—all of which can increase bookings and improve guest satisfaction. It’s ideal for owners who want passive income without the daily grind of hosting.
What is full-service vacation rental management?
Full-service vacation rental management covers every aspect of running a short-term rental, from marketing and booking to cleaning, maintenance, and emergency response. RedAwning offers both full service and essential options to our customers.
What additional benefits are there to full-service vs half-service management?
Full-service management offers hands-on property care—like cleaning coordination, maintenance, and emergency fixes—beyond what half-service options like RedAwning provide. With full-service, you get a complete solution, including physical upkeep and local support. Full-service is pricier but more comprehensive.
Are there restrictions on personal use for properties under RedAwning management?
RedAwning doesn’t impose strict restrictions on personal use. Owners can block dates for their own stays via the Smart Portal, maintaining control over availability. However, frequent personal use might reduce rental income, and you’d need to coordinate with RedAwning to ensure your calendar aligns with guest bookings.
How much are RedAwning property management fees? What do they depend on?
RedAwning plans start at a 10% commission on booking revenue. Unlike some competitors, there are no upfront or setup fees. Fees are consistent across properties, but additional costs (e.g., cleaning or maintenance) depend on your arrangements with local vendors, as RedAwning doesn’t handle those directly. Your total expenses hinge on property location and service needs.
Where is RedAwning Vacation Rental Management available?
RedAwning operates across the U.S., managing properties in over 10,000 destinations as of 2025. From coastal condos in California to mountain cabins in Colorado, their tech-driven model supports nationwide coverage without requiring local teams for every market, making it accessible wherever your vacation home is located.
What services does RedAwning vacation rental management offer?
RedAwning provides listing creation and distribution on 50+ platforms, professional photography, dynamic pricing via PriceLabs, reservation management, 24/7 guest support, and payment processing. Owners get a Smart Portal to monitor performance and adjust settings. However, they don’t handle cleaning, maintenance, or on-site tasks—those are your responsibility or outsourced locally.
Can RedAwning help me convert a rental property or home into an Airbnb?
Yes, RedAwning can help convert a property into an Airbnb by setting up optimized listings, arranging professional photos, and distributing it across platforms, including Airbnb. You’d need to ensure the property meets basic requirements (e.g., a private entrance and bathroom) and handle any physical prep—like furnishing or repairs—yourself or through vendors.
Does RedAwning manage condos on Airbnb?
Yes, RedAwning manages condos on Airbnb, along with houses, apartments, and boutique hotels. They’ll list your condo on Airbnb and other channels, optimizing it for bookings. You’d just need to confirm it qualifies during onboarding and manage condo-specific rules or HOA restrictions yourself.
How does RedAwning compare to Vacasa?
RedAwning is a half-service manager focused on marketing and reservations with a 10% fee, while Vacasa offers full-service management—cleaning, maintenance, and more—for fees often exceeding 25%. RedAwning gives owners more control but less support; Vacasa handles everything but costs more and may limit personal use with longer contracts. RedAwning’s tech edge suits hands-on owners; Vacasa’s suits those wanting total delegation.
How does RedAwning compare to Evolve?
RedAwning and Evolve both charge 10% and focus on marketing and bookings, not physical management. RedAwning lists on 50+ platforms, offers a damage waiver, and emphasizes guest support, while Evolve sticks to fewer channels but includes $5,000 damage protection and a risk-free guarantee. RedAwning’s broader reach appeals to visibility-focused owners; Evolve’s simplicity suits those prioritizing ease and security.
How does RedAwning handle emergencies at the property?
RedAwning doesn’t directly handle on-site emergencies like plumbing issues or power outages, as they focus on digital management. Their 24/7 guest support can address renter concerns, but physical fixes fall to you or your local vendors. You’d need a plan for urgent situations, unlike full-service managers who coordinate repairs.
Does RedAwning offer insurance for hosts and their properties?
RedAwning provides up to $20,000 in damage protection to each host.
Does RedAwning offer assistance with furnishing?
Yes, RedAwning is partnered with great interior designers. Please check out our furnishing page.
Will RedAwning maintain amenities like pools and hot tubs for hosts?
Yes!
How quickly can RedAwning take over management of a property?
RedAwning can start managing a property within days on some channels (e.g., their site or Airbnb), with full distribution across 50+ platforms taking up to two weeks, assuming you provide all required info during onboarding. It’s a fast, self-guided process compared to full-service setups that might take longer.
Does RedAwning use technology to price my home?
Yes, RedAwning uses a dynamic pricing tool powered by PriceLabs, blending market data and AI to optimize rates. You can set parameters during onboarding or adjust them manually via the Smart Portal, ensuring competitive pricing that maximizes occupancy and revenue.
What is the pet policy for homes under RedAwning management?
RedAwning lets owners decide their pet policy. You can allow pets and add a fee (set via the Smart Portal), or prohibit them entirely. RedAwning communicates this to guests and collects any fees, but cleaning or damage from pets is your responsibility to address.
Why is RedAwning better than other property management companies?
RedAwning sets itself apart from other property management companies with a technology-driven, cost-effective approach that offers both full-service and partial management options, catering to vacation rental owners who value flexibility and control. Unlike competitors like Vacasa or AvantStay, which focus solely on full-service management with fees ranging from 25-50% of income, RedAwning provides a choice: comprehensive oversight including marketing, reservations, guest support, and maintenance, or a partial-service model emphasizing marketing and bookings across 50+ platforms like Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com, potentially increasing bookings compared to narrower-channel options like Evolve. RedAwning's fees start at 10%. Having served the industry for 15 years, RedAwning combines experience with lower fees and rapid onboarding—listing properties in an afternoon—appealing to hosts who want efficiency without losing decision-making power, though it may not suit those needing extensive local support like Vacasa provides. Its scale (20,000+ properties across 10,000 destinations) and data-driven pricing give it an edge over Evolve’s simpler approach, making it a versatile choice for tech-savvy hosts seeking tailored management solutions.
