One thing you should know before opening an Airbnb: it is NOT passive income 😂

Just like any business, there’s admin involved. Guest messages, calendars, pricing, check-ins, availability, different booking platforms… and when you only have one property, doing all of that manually is totally manageable.

But once you start managing multiple properties, those little 5-minute tasks add up VERY quickly.

In order to keep growing, I had to put better systems in place.

I started using Lodgify about a month ago. My bookings feed into one calendar, I can automate guest messages, manage multiple properties from one place and work on my direct booking website without constantly jumping between different apps.

It definitely hasn’t made hosting completely passive 😂 but it has made the day-to-day much simpler.

This is a paid partnership with , but I actually chose and paid for Lodgify before they ever approached me about working together.

If you’d like to try it, you can use code CHANEL15 for 15% off all yearly and bi-yearly Lodgify plans, including a free 7-day trial and free onboarding. 💛

I’ve been using my simple home made cleaners for months now. Not only has it saved me THOUSANDS of Rands, it’s also reduced the amount of chemicals in our home and the amount of plastic we use. PLUS, my home is just as clean as before. 🤷‍♀️

PS: I also use ONE disinfectant (Jik / Domestos) to clean the toilet. You DON’T need to disinfect your entire home.

Also, clean does NOT have a smell. We’ve been tricked into thinking everything needs to smell like a flower. Why? Because it sells. 💸 But all those scented products are actually pretty bad for our health.

Anyway, thanks for coming to my little rant. 😜 Remember to save this post for when you need it. 🧽🫧💕

Unfiltered opinion here, but if I’m staying in your space, I treat it like my own. 🤷‍♀️

I spent weeks researching, testing and comparing different property management systems before finally choosing Lodgify… and SIX days after paying for an entire year upfront, they reached out to me about working together! 😂 Talk about perfect timing!

As someone who manages multiple Airbnbs, I knew it was time to start working smarter, not harder. I wanted to expand onto more booking platforms, build my own direct booking website and manage everything from one place — without spending a fortune on software.

And that’s exactly why I chose Lodgify!

If you’re an Airbnb host looking to grow your business, streamline your operations or start taking direct bookings, this is definitely worth looking into. 🏡

Painting multiple coats? Don’t waste time washing your brushes in between 👏

I wrap my brushes + rollers in cling wrap/plastic, and do the same with my paint tray.

✔️ 2–4 hours at room temp
✔️ Overnight if you pop it in the fridge

Such an easy way to save time, mess & paint.

PS: the colour I’m using is Lala Palm by Duram

Unpopular opinion about the things I leave in my Airbnb. I know it’s a drop in the ocean, but a little bit everyday = a lot. 😆

I don’t use single use sachets or soaps. I refill as much as I can — soap, shampoo, conditioner, coffee, tea, sugar, you name it!
