Airbnb Summer 2025 Update: What Hosts Need to Know About Services & Experiences | The STR Scale Show with Mike Reilly | Ep 14


Listen Later

Airbnb just rolled out its biggest update of the year, and if you’re a host, you need to know what’s coming.

In this live breakdown, we cover:

• The truth about Airbnb’s new “Services” feature and why it matters

• What this means for photographers, chefs, massage therapists, and YOU

• How Airbnb plans to monetize add-ons (and why you might not see a cut)

• Major liability concerns Airbnb isn’t talking about

• How this could affect your guest experience—and your reviews

• Why this is really a pivot toward becoming the Instagram of Travel


Plus: actionable strategies to get ahead of this change, build local service partnerships, and protect your property.


TLDR? This update means more work for hosts, unless Airbnb starts paying us to help them grow. Watch this now so you’re not caught off guard.
