As an Airbnb photographer, I’ve seen so many different kinds of homes and had an idea of what kinds of things I would incorporate if I ever had my own. This is the first of * hopefully * many Airbnbs for us in the future and I really wanted this first one to set the tone for our brand as it grows. I put so much of my own personality into this home with all the things I think guests will love and appreciate!
In my opinion, bedrooms are kind of the most important when it comes to an Airbnb. Awesome bedding and quality mattresses is what will set one Airbnb apart from another because guests are usually traveling for work or to relax and either way, a restful sleep is important!
As far as design, I had ideas of the vibe I was going for and I honestly started with rugs and bed frames and built off that. I knew from the start I was going with white and off white bedding because it’s fresh and crisp and you can’t go wrong with it! The fabric we went with for the bedding is a linen blend to compliment the cooling of the mattresses so our guests can experience the most comfortable and breathable sleep. People always ask how I can do white bedding, my answer is, bleach LOL! Truly in my opinion there’s nothing more inviting than fresh clean white linens and I wanted guests to feel as comfortable as possible in our home. If you know me at all, know anyway that my very favorite way to add color is PLANTS, rugs, pillows, throw blankets, and wall art/decor!
I’m very visual so my process usually starts in photoshop. I’ll grab a few pieces I like and put them together in a room design mood board to see how I like the items together and just keep switching things around until I love it! Sometimes it can take weeks before I finalize a design. For this specific process, we did have a budget in mind and so some pieces were even bought while out and about or off Facebook Marketplace and I’ll just snap a quick photo of it and add it to my mood board and keep trucking forward until I have a full room design.

Mattresses were a no-brainer for us! We have the Purple Premier 3 at our house and Anthony and I have never slept better and definitely wanted this experience for our guests! As a matter of fact, we travelled for the first time, recently, since getting the mattress and honestly couldn’t wait to get back home to it 😆 It’s truly the absolute best mattress we’ve ever slept on and we are over the moon that we are able to have two Purple Premier 3 mattresses for our guests! If you’re not familiar with Purple, I’m glad you’re here because I’d happily highly recommend them to anyone! They actually have tons of products from mattresses, pillows, and bedding, to seat cushions, and even pet beds! The Purple Grid technology is what sets them apart from other companies in the fact that it provides no-pressure support, it’s responsive, and keeps you cool at night. Quite literally what everyone looks for in a mattress. The thicker the Purple grid, the less pressure you feel and we really think our guests will love and enjoy how the stretchmax cover on the mattress allows you to feel the full benefits of the Purple grid while the ultra-breathable woven side panels encourage airflow. Overall the Purple mattress design is absolute quality, and we love the dreamy fabrics and textures. It’s like sleeping in the most comfortable cloud and we just can’t say enough amazing things!
