🏡 Designing a Stylish Yet Spacious Airbnb in Greensboro, NC for 16+ Guests

A 6-Bedroom Retreat Made for Comfort, Convenience, and Cohesion

When our client brought us this spacious 6-bedroom property in Greensboro, they needed help turning it into a warm, functional Airbnb with broad guest appeal—from families to business travelers to weekend groups. It had great bones, but needed design cohesion and staging for that "Wow, we need to book this!" moment.


🎯 The Design Goals

This wasn’t just about making the space look good—it had to:

  • Sleep 16+ guests comfortably

  • Feel inviting and elevated, not basic or overstuffed

  • Showcase amenities like the fire pit, hot tub, and basketball court

  • Make guests feel at ease the moment they walked in

We started by analyzing top-performing Airbnbs in Greensboro via AirDNA, noting common themes, color palettes, and what guests rave about most in reviews.


🛏️ Room by Room Strategy

We focused on neutral, layered palettes to make the home feel both peaceful and elevated. Light earth tones, soft textures, and clean lines defined our selections.

  • Bedrooms were staged with symmetry, cozy accents, and crisp white bedding

  • The living area was arranged for group gatherings, with a modern touch

  • Artwork and greenery were used to create flow without visual clutter

  • Fire pit + hot tub zone was styled to feel like a true outdoor escape


🏀 Outdoor Energy, Balanced With Indoor Calm

We wanted to create a resort-at-home experience, so guests would feel like they were getting way more than just a place to sleep. We made sure:

  • The basketball court felt part of the brand—not just an extra

  • The hot tub/fire pit combo was staged with mood lighting and seating

  • Outdoor zones matched the interior’s calm tone, not clashing with it


✨ End Result

The final design is now live on Airbnb and has become a favorite for:

  • Sporting event weekends

  • Family reunions

  • Trade show attendees

  • Retreats and content trips

Everything from layout to finish selections is built around what guests actually want—and that’s why this Airbnb continues to stand out in a crowded market.
