Airbnb/Holiday Let Cleaning

Fast changeover cleaning to keep your guests happy.

Running a successful Airbnb or holiday let requires consistently spotless presentation for every guest. Our Airbnb and holiday let cleaning service is designed specifically for short-term rental hosts who need fast, reliable turnovers without compromising on quality. We understand that guest satisfaction directly impacts your reviews and bookings, so we deliver thorough, efficient cleaning that helps you maintain those all-important 5-star ratings.

Guest-ready touches

We go beyond basic cleaning to ensure your property looks welcoming:

  • Staging the property for a great first impression
  • Arranging towels and linens attractively
  • Checking that all lights and appliances are working
  • Ensuring the property smells fresh
  • Positioning welcome materials or guest books
  • Final walkthrough to check everything is perfect

Damage and issue reporting

After each clean, we check your property for any damage or maintenance issues left by previous guests. If we spot anything - stains, breakages, missing items, or maintenance concerns - we'll notify you immediately so you can address it before your next guest arrives. This helps protect your property and ensures you can document any damage for Airbnb's resolution centre if needed.

Quick turnaround

We understand that changeover windows can be tight, especially with back-to-back bookings. Our cleaners are experienced in efficient turnovers and can work to your schedule. A typical Airbnb clean takes around 2 hours depending on property size, but we can accommodate shorter windows when needed. Let us know your checkout and check-in times when booking.

Linen changes

Fresh linens make a huge difference to guest experience. As part of your Airbnb clean, we can change bed linen and towels. You provide the fresh linens (clean sheets, pillowcases, duvet covers, and towels), and your cleaner will handle the changeover - stripping the used bedding, making the beds with fresh linen, and arranging towels attractively for your incoming guests.

Regular scheduling

Set up recurring cleans that sync with your booking calendar. Whether you have multiple turnovers per week or occasional weekend bookings, we can work around your schedule. For hosts with high booking volumes, we can integrate with your Airbnb calendar for automatic scheduling - no need to book each clean manually.

Host communication

We'll notify you when cleaning is complete so you know your property is guest-ready. If we encounter any issues or damage, we'll flag it immediately for your attention. You'll have peace of mind knowing your property is in good hands, even when you can't be there in person.

Ideal for

Our Airbnb cleaning service is perfect for:

  • Airbnb and holiday rental hosts
  • Serviced accommodation providers
  • Short-term rental property managers
  • Landlords with multiple rental properties
  • Anyone with frequent guest turnovers

Deep cleans for your rental

Between guests, a standard turnover clean keeps your property looking great. But periodically, you may want a deeper clean to maintain standards - especially during quieter periods or after long stays. We can arrange one-off deep cleans for your rental property alongside your regular turnovers.

Booking your Airbnb clean

When booking, let us know the size of your property, your checkout and check-in times, and any specific requirements (linen changes, restocking, etc.). If you have regular turnovers, ask us about setting up recurring bookings synced with your calendar. For questions or to discuss your needs, contact us at support@servella.co.uk.
