If you’re running an Airbnb (or thinking about it), here’s a little secret: your bed can truly make or break your guest experience. A cozy, clean, thoughtfully chosen bed can turn an ordinary stay into a “Wow, I’m definitely coming back!” moment.
Whether you're hosting families, weekend adventurers, or friends on a quick getaway, the right bed sets the tone — comfort, style, and that warm “you’re welcome here” feeling guests instantly appreciate.
Not sure where to begin? We’ve put together a super helpful guide on choosing the perfect Airbnb beds — from comfort tips to design inspiration and those small touches that guests absolutely love.
Give it a read here: beds4u.co.nz...
If you want your Airbnb to stand out (and score those glowing 5-star reviews!), this guide is a must-read.
Happy hosting, neighbours!

These days, we’re getting pretty creative about how we do it too. The latest idea? You can actually buy a symbolic piece of one of New Zealand’s most remote islands as part of the Auckland Island Restoration Project.
If you had a bit of spare cash, would you 'buy' into the project?
And maybe the bigger question — should we be looking at doing the same kind of thing for wildlife refuges on our main islands too?
