How to create an AirBnB Manhattan KS

by Kyle Powers

 

With Kansas State University, Fort Riley, and plenty of local attractions, Manhattan, Kansas, is an ideal market for Airbnb rentals. Here’s a quick guide to setting up a profitable short-term rental.

1. Choose the Right Location

Location is key! Properties near Kansas State University, Aggieville, and Fort Riley see strong, year-round demand from tourists, families, and military personnel. Selecting a property in these areas will make it easier to keep your listing booked.

2. Check Local Regulations

Manhattan has specific regulations for short-term rentals. You may need a permit and should be prepared to collect state and local taxes. If your property is part of an HOA, verify that rentals are allowed.

3. Make Your Property Stand Out

Invest in comfortable, quality furnishings and consider adding Kansas-themed touches for a unique guest experience. High-quality photos and a well-written description can also help your property attract more views and bookings.

4. Price Your Rental Strategically

Research similar listings in Manhattan to set a competitive nightly rate. Adjust pricing for peak times, like university events, and consider Airbnb’s “Smart Pricing” feature for automatic rate adjustments.

5. Focus on Guest Satisfaction

Provide thoughtful amenities, maintain a clean space, and communicate clearly with guests. Positive reviews are crucial for repeat bookings, so ensure every guest has a great experience.
