Do Airbnb Provide Tea And Coffee: From Owner’s View

Airbnb is all about giving guests a unique, authentic experience. That means it’s essential that you provide your guests with everything they need to make their stay as pleasant and relaxing as possible.

Yes, including providing tea and coffee supplies. If you don’t, your guests might get frustrated with the lack of refreshment options, or worse still – leave without getting the most out of their stay! 

Thankfully, there are ways of making this inconsequential detail not so inconsequential after all. 

Even if you have a small home in the country and no formal living room; there are plenty of hidden spots where you can keep your supplies hidden away from prying eyes and nosey guests. 

Or perhaps you have a large city home that has a fully-furnished guest suite or apartment? You could even ask friends and family to store their supplies for when they stay over. 

Here are some pro tips on how to keep your tea and coffee supplies hidden and secure for when your guests visit:

Plan your supply of tea and coffee before they arrive

If you’re not sure how often your guests will be staying, you should plan for the worst. That means stocking up on tea and coffee several weeks before the guests arrive.

Lock up your supply in an airtight container

It’s never a bad idea to keep your tea and coffee supplies locked up inside airtight containers. It makes it difficult for anyone to smell the contents of your supply, let alone steal them. 

It also keeps them from getting stale and keeping your guests happy with their tea and coffee options.

Hide your supplies in a small cabinet or drawer

You might not want to risk storing your supplies somewhere that guests could easily find them. But hiding it in a small cabinet or drawer is a great option. You can then ask your guests to politely remove their tea and coffee from the cabinet before they leave.

If not, you can make one yourself with the help of some screws, nails, and quick-drying paint. Just make sure that the hiding place is small enough for only one or two cups at a time so your guests don’t go crazy!

Use an old-school keychain to hide large things like mugs, spoons, etc.

One of the easiest ways to keep your supplies hidden is by using an old-school keychain. You can use a small and discreet keychain that is easy to store and transport, and it can also easily be attached to your bags or other belongings for when you travel. If you’re worried about guests being able to see the keys dangling from your bag, consider adding some fake keychains or stickers to cover them up.
