He‚Äôs An Actor By Day and Super Airbnb Host by Night — Meet the Creator of Airstream Island

In just a moment you‚Äôll meet Andrew Hunter — the creator of Airstream Island, a mid-century, tropical hideaway in Atlanta, Georgia.

Andrew is an actor. He will never forget the first time his mother took him to see Fiddler on the Roof. He was transfixed by the characters in the show, but more bewildered by the fact that you could make money pretending to be someone you weren’t!

Fast forward a couple of decades and Andrew is pursuing his acting dream by day and Instagram influencing at night to help pay the bills. But after he meets the love of his life — and proposes to her just two months later — Andrew realizes that in order to continue his acting dream, he‚Äôs going to need some supplemental income to support his family.

And that’s when the idea that would ultimately become Airstream Island was born.

Tune in to hear the story behind how Andrew transformed his backyard into a tropical escape and how he grew it to become one of Atlanta’s top-rated Airbnbs.

This week's episode is brought to you Guesty for Hosts — the bestie of top-rated Airbnb hosts.

It’s 11:32 pm on a Thursday night and you wake up in a panic.

You forgot to send your guests the custom lockbox combination for your Airbnb, and you missed the 17 messages they sent saying they couldn‚Äôt get in because you enabled ‚Äúsleep mode‚Äù on your iPhone — you know, to try and cut down on screen time before bed and all.

After apologizing profusely and sending them a bottle of bubbly — in hopes they won‚Äôt leave you a 1-star review — you think to yourself, ‚Äúhow do other hosts stay on top of guest communications?"

The answer? They use Guesty For Hosts — an easy to use rental management platform. With features like Automated Messages that send important communications to guests at the exact right times‚Ķyou'll never have to jeopardize your beauty sleep again.
