Best Mattress for Airbnb & Vacation Rentals in 2019

Why You Need the Best Mattress for Airbnb

The difference between a low rating and a high rating on Airbnb can be as simple as the mattress your guest sleeps on. When looking for the best mattress for Airbnb, put yourself in your guests’ shoes and look for one that provides the best sleep experience.

I recommend one that is younger than ten years, lacks stains and smells, and, obviously, is void of lumps. When searching for the best mattress for Airbnb, look for one that is durable and of medium firmness to please even the pickiest guest. That is unless they prefer lumps. Who knows? Maybe lumps will become a trend.

A Great Night of Sleep Leads to Positive Reviews

Want to know a secret? Sleep affects our mood, our thoughts, and how we feel about the world. It’s no surprise that when guests stay over that how they sleep can determine how they rate your Airbnb.

Seriously, when have you slept on a terrible mattress and thought “wow, I want to do this again” with no sarcasm? I even recommend trying it for yourself and ask: would you want to rate your mattress five stars? If you answered “no,” then look no further as I go over what is the best mattress for Airbnb.

Selecting a mattress can be a huge decision. I mean, they have entire stores dedicated to it and commercials for it! If you’re short on time, or this entire experience with Airbnb hosting is new to you it can be difficult! Look no further, we did the leg work for you! Sit back and sleep well at night knowing the mattress suggestions we have for you to make this process easy!

The Best Mattress for Your Guests… And Your Investment

Let’s idealize the best mattress for Airbnb for a moment— it needs to be durable, memory foam, and ideally, without the need for a box spring!

There are many reasons why a box spring may still be necessary. This can be to avoid buying a bed frame, add height so guests can comfortably get into and out of bed, and to provide support to the mattress of your choice.

Before picking a mattress, read the reviews as you may be able to skip the box spring with no issue. I go into more detail here about other aspects of the best luxurious sleep such as thread count.

Best Mattress for Pain Relief

Choosing the best Airbnb mattress that also caters to those who have back pain can have guests smiling, feeling better, and leaving positive reviews! There are plenty of mattresses that cater to relieving body aches, but when shopping for, perhaps America’s best mattress, remember some guests get overly warm.

For this, I recommend Nectar’s Memory Foam Mattress. It has a cooling layer with medium firmness that is perfect to help melt some of those aches away while keeping your guests from overheating.

Comfy and cool- but not cold! A perfect combo!

Most Affordable High-Quality Airbnb Mattress

Regarding cost, I wouldn’t call Nectar’s mattress as the “best mattress for Airbnb” though the warranty might help in the long run.

For those looking for something similar, but more on the affordable side, I recommend this affordable best Airbnb mattress: Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress. It has medium firmness for a memory foam mattress, and the green tea helps prevent the smell that builds up in mattresses.

Side note: I’ve had numerous guests reached out to me about my Zinus Memory Foam Mattress. They all wanted to know where I bought it…

Surprise! It was from Amazon.

Mattresses You’ll Want to Sleep On

You may have some upscale properties that require a little more “oomph!”. I understand and I got your back! …Or mattress. Either way, this mattress will make you drool.

Once a friendly ghost, now he’s back as your mattress! What a true BFF! The Casper 10- inch Memory Foam mattress is taking America by storm.

This mattress has hypoallergenic latex with open cell foam! What does this mean for your guests? It keeps them cool and supported just like a real friend would!

With the perfect firmness, Casper only sells three different types of mattresses! What makes this perfect for you (and your guests)? It has a smooth transition between the different foam.

This different foam depending on spots treats your body parts differently! It might provide more support for hips than feet. It feels like a more customized sleep!

      They are comfortable too!

      I don’t do anything fancy, in fact, we’ve standardized the memory foam bed from Zinus.

    Our guests loved the memory foam bed from Zinus. It’s by far the best mattress for our Airbnb. Currently, we have 3 and about to get a couple more beds for our 4th unit which is a 2-bedroom. Thanks for this blog and I agree, Zinus is the better choice out of the other more expensive memory foam beds.

    I have the Zinus green tea mattress myself, and really like it. For guests, which mattress thickness do you recommend?
