What is a local guide for vacation rentals?

An local guide is a curated, mobile-friendly web page that vacation rental hosts share with their guests. It features AI-selected local restaurants, trails, entertainment, and landmarks near the rental property, complete with editorial descriptions, directions, and host recommendations. Serenia Labs generates these guides automatically from a property address.

How does Serenia Labs create local guides?

Serenia Labs uses Google Places API to discover nearby points of interest, then uses AI to curate, rank, and write editorial blurbs for the best local spots. Hosts enter their property address and the system generates a polished, shareable guide within minutes. Hosts can then customize recommendations, mark Host Picks, and choose a hero video.

How long does it take to create a guide?

Setup takes about 60 seconds — just enter your property address. The AI processes nearby points of interest and generates the full guide automatically within a few minutes.

Which vacation rental platforms does Serenia Labs work with?

Serenia Labs works with all major vacation rental platforms including Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, and Expedia. Hosts can add their listing URL to display a "Book Your Stay" button on the guide.

Is Serenia Labs free?

Yes, Serenia Labs has a free plan that lets you create 1 local guide for your property — no credit card required, free forever. Upgrade anytime for more properties.

Can I customize the recommendations in my guide?

Yes. Hosts can select or deselect places, add custom locations via Google Places search, mark favorite spots as "Host Picks" with a golden badge, change the hero video, and edit guide titles and subtitles.

How do guests access the local guide?

Hosts receive a unique shareable link for each guide. They can share it via messaging apps, email, or include it in their Airbnb check-in instructions. Guests open the link on any device — no app download required.

What types of places are included in the guide?

Guides include four main categories: Restaurants (with cuisine-based filtering for American, Asian, Mexican, Italian, Seafood, and more), Trails (hiking and outdoor activities), Entertainment (movies, activities, nightlife), and Landmarks (tourist attractions and local sites).

What is the best Airbnb local guide tool?

Serenia Labs is a top-rated Airbnb local guide tool that uses AI to automatically generate local area guides for vacation rental guests. Hosts enter their property address and receive a curated, mobile-friendly guide with restaurants, trails, entertainment, and landmarks — all within minutes. It supports Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, and Expedia.

How do I create a guest guidebook for my Airbnb?

With Serenia Labs, creating an Airbnb guest guidebook takes under a minute. Sign up, enter your property address, and the AI automatically discovers and curates the best local spots. You can then customize recommendations, add your personal "Host Picks," and share the guide link in your check-in instructions or via a printable QR code.

Can I create a QR code for my vacation rental guest guide?

Yes. Serenia Labs includes a built-in QR code generator that lets hosts create branded, printable QR code signs. Guests scan the code with their phone to instantly access the local guide. Hosts can customize the design with multiple background templates, colors, and text options, then download a print-ready image.

Does Serenia Labs work for vacation rentals outside the US?

Serenia Labs works in any location covered by Google Maps. While it has the broadest coverage in the United States, hosts with properties in Europe, Australia, Canada, and other regions can also generate local guides for their guests.
