Airbnb & Short-Stay Cleaning tailored to your space
Guests judge a short-stay apartment in the first minute. A hair in the shower, a smell in the fridge or dust on the bedside table can undo all of the effort you put into your listing, and it will often appear in a review. Reliable turnover cleaning is one of the most valuable things a host can invest in.
We help Airbnb and short-stay owners keep their properties ready for incoming guests. That includes cleaning bedrooms, living areas, kitchens and bathrooms, changing bed linen where provided, removing waste and presenting the property the way you want it to appear in your photos.
If you host regularly, it helps to agree a simple checklist and a way of sharing your booking dates. Then each turnover follows the same standard, even when your calendar gets busy. We can also schedule periodic deep cleans, as well as sofa, mattress and curtain cleaning, for the items that guests notice over time.
What our airbnb & short-stay cleaning service includes
- Cleaning bedrooms and living areas
- Bathroom and kitchen cleaning
- Changing bed linen where provided
- General property presentation
- Waste removal
- Preparing the property for incoming guests
The exact scope depends on your property and is confirmed in your quotation.
How the work is carried out

- Sync your dates. Give us check-out and check-in times so that we can plan the window
- Reset the property. Waste is removed, linen changed and every room cleaned
- Detail what guests notice. Mirrors, taps, hair traps, fridge and remotes get attention
- Report back. Anything broken, missing or running low can be flagged to you
Why it is worth using a professional
Hosts who clean their own units soon find that it limits how many bookings they can accept, especially with same-day turnovers or several units. Handing turnovers to a professional team protects your review score, gives you time back and makes it realistic to manage from another part of town or even from abroad. A consistent routine also picks up small maintenance problems early.
Airbnb & Short-Stay Cleaning in Nairobi and Thika
Short-stay demand in Nairobi clusters around Kilimani, Westlands, Kileleshwa, Lavington, Parklands and the airport corridor around Syokimau and Embakasi. Many of these units are in serviced blocks with strict access rules, so your caretaker needs to know about us in advance. Guests on business trips and conferences often arrive at short notice, so give us your calendar early and tell us about tight turnovers as soon as you can.
What affects your quotation
We price by scope of work, so your quote reflects your actual job. The main factors are:
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Frequency and timing of turnovers
- Whether linen handling is included
- Stay length and condition after check-out
How to prepare
- Keep clean linen and towels stocked and accessible
- Store guest supplies in a labelled cupboard
- Give the caretaker our visit details
- Share your preferred presentation with photos
Keeping the results between visits
Between professional turnovers, a few habits protect your listing. Use white or light linen that can be washed and refreshed easily, and keep a second set for each bed. Fit mattress and pillow protectors, as they are much cheaper than replacing bedding. Provide a clear note on rubbish and check-out expectations, so that guests leave the unit in reasonable condition. Keep a small locked cupboard of cleaning supplies and guest essentials on site. Compare your place with your listing photos now and then, because small changes creep in. Finally, read your reviews for any mention of cleanliness, and share that feedback, so that the checklist can be updated.
How we plan a clean in your home
Every household in Nairobi and Thika runs differently, so we start by asking who uses the space and what matters most to you. A family with small children may want the kitchen and bathrooms put first, while a working tenant may simply want a fresh home to return to. We confirm which rooms are in scope, whether we should bring cleaning supplies, and how we will get access if you are at work. Items that need special care, such as delicate finishes or valuables, are best put away or pointed out before we begin. That short conversation is what keeps airbnb & short-stay cleaning predictable, with no surprises on the day. After the visit, tell us what you would like done differently and we can adjust the next one.
What to expect on the day
On the day, our team arrives at the agreed time, confirms the plan with you or your representative, and starts with the areas that matter most. Please point out anything fragile, and tell us about pets or anyone at home who is sensitive to strong smells. We work through the home in a set order, so that clean rooms stay clean. Before leaving, we go through the agreed list. If you notice something that was missed, tell us as soon as possible so that we can look at it. Your feedback helps us to get the next visit right, and it allows us to adjust the plan as your household changes.
