Efficient Solutions from Ani M for Airbnb Apartments
As an industry-changing phenomenon, Airbnb now goes way beyond the mere provision of accommodation in desirable locations. The sheer variety and range of interiors available is raising standards right across every sector of the market and Airbnb hosts are finding themselves with work to do if they wish to stay competitive. With expertise, experience and creative energy in plentiful supply, the design teams at Ani M have the necessary skills needed to ensure that their clients’ properties captivate, dazzle and stay in demand.
A trio of bespoke transformations by Ani M have recently elevated living spaces while setting new benchmarks of taste, elegance and photogenic desirability. All three of these homes continue to captivate the imagination and attract the interest of Airbnb customers worldwide. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the perennially fashionable Notting Hill features prominently in our study. The West London neighbourhood became something of an instant favourite during the meteoric rise of Airbnb and is still top of most holiday renters’ lists. Like the rest of Prime London, properties here are let out for over four-fifths of the year and can command rents of just under £200 per night. Landlords will not hesitate to invest in specialist help to keep these investments lucrative.
Campden Street – An Offshore Airbnb Landlord Gets Immediate Results
Overseas investors frequently conduct their London affairs through remote channels and will therefore be meticulous when it comes to selecting design collaborators. Even though she is based six thousand miles away in South Africa, Tracy knew that her one-bedroom apartment had the potential to transcend its modest dimensions. We heartily concurred with this sentiment and quickly presented her with a range of ingenious options that could merge the functional with the aesthetic, no matter how restricted the square footage.
Both the client and designer agreed that cosy needn’t mean cramped and that Airbnb guests should not have to skimp on comfort, regardless of the length of the stay. Sliding doors and a revised furniture layout were both key space-saving factors, while warm colours created an intimate atmosphere that would provide sanctuary and calm. Bespoke window dressings were used to enhance the tree-lined street views that this Notting Hill location affords.
Enthused by how subtle changes could make such a marked difference, the client was also appreciative of the unassuming way the design team applied them. “Professional and competent” was how Tracy described Ani M’s approach, and we could not ask for a more glowing accolade. In the end, however, the success of an Airbnb refurbishment is measured in its immediate effect on profitability and in this case, Tracy’s investment paid off spectacularly. Before a week had passed, the property had been let for a premium rental, a fact that drew even more plaudits from our satisfied client.
The Pembridge, Notting Hill – Where Luxury Meets Practicality
Giving an apartment a five-star gloss may be optional for some landlords, but in well-appointed areas such as Notting Hill, this is viewed as something of a necessity. Commissioned by a landlord to ready a high-end apartment for short-term rentals, the Ani M team worked hard to ensure that the living space would provide a premium Airbnb experience for even the most discerning visitor. Our designers used the unusual configuration to their own advantage by creating extra space for the kind of furniture that would act as bold focal points and give the apartment a sense of plushness and comfort.
This sense of modern practicality extended to the décor, which drew on rich, velvety tones that could complement an eclectic choice of furniture styles as well as some upgraded accessories and light fittings. In order to keep the budget within operational guidelines, we proposed that efficient furniture options be used. A sixty day lead time was proposed and adhered to; a detail that is of utmost importance when a landlord is keen to see a prompt return on their investment. This combination of speed, skill and precision greatly impressed the client, who was then able to confidently market the property as a top-tier Airbnb rental.
Bowen House, Hythe – Seaside Penthouse Rented in One Week
A seaside Airbnb property comes with its own unique set of demands, such as increased wear and tear, seasonal traffic and a concentration of similar competitive properties nearby. In such cases, the emphasis should still be on creating a carefree holiday space, but staying within budget. Our client’s three-bedroom penthouse in the coastal town of Hythe was ideally positioned to provide guests with sweeping sea views from a luxurious vantage point. What it needed in addition was the kind of décor and layout that would help maintain this desirability through the busy holiday months and beyond.
Efficient furniture options were used for flexibility, high-quality construction, and affordability. We also complemented the usual blues and greens that are so identified with seaside properties with warmer tones of gold and brown. The expected high turnover of holidaymakers called for extra storage and easily configurable furniture, and this was elegantly achieved by the design team with time to spare and well within budget.
As in the previous two examples, the property was let within a week, and the landlord was able to see the initial investment quickly yield a return. Having had a fairly comprehensive consulting period with the client, it was also gratifying to hear feedback that referenced some of the details covered, such as the use of local artwork and materials. Both parties agreed that it was this kind of attention to detail that gave the property the edge and led to a speedy rental.
