Airbnb guest screening, AdelaideGuest screening

The name on the door is Guest Guardian for a reason. Every booking is vetted by a person before it is accepted — not waved through because the platform showed a green tick.

Why it matters

One bad booking undoes a good year

Platform verification confirms who a guest is. Our screening looks at the bigger picture — helping ensure each booking is suited to your property, your neighbourhood and the type of stay you want to welcome.

Screening is the cheapest insurance in short-stay, and it is the part most managers quietly skip because it takes time.

  • Every booking reviewed by a person, not a rule
  • Local bookings and one-night stays given extra scrutiny
  • House rules accepted in writing before check-in
  • Guest count confirmed and enforced
  • Declined bookings handled diplomatically to protect your rating

The process

What we check, every time

01

Identity

Government ID verified and matched to the booking account and payment method.

02

History

Full review history read, not just the star average. Patterns matter more than the score.

03

Booking pattern

Trip purpose, group size, lead time and proximity. Local one-nighters get a closer look.

04

Agreement

House rules, guest count and no-party terms accepted in writing before keys are released.

Questions

Guest screening

Does screening cost me bookings?
It costs you a small number of bookings you did not want. We decline a low single-digit percentage of requests, almost always local one-night party risks. Occupancy is not the metric that suffers; damage claims are.
Will declining guests hurt my Airbnb ranking?
Handled badly, yes. We manage declines within platform guidelines and keep response rates high, so your ranking is protected.
What about instant book?
We can run instant book with tightened requirements, or keep approval manual. We will recommend based on your property and street, then leave the call to you.
Do you take a security bond?
Where the channel supports it, yes. Combined with the property check that follows every stay, it gives a claim the support it needs.
