Gold Coast AirBnB Cleaning Checklists for Hosts

Below is a comprehensive cleaning checklist tailored to cleaning AirBnB properties:

General & Living Areas

  • Surface Care: Dust all furniture, shelves, electronics, and decor.
  • High-Touch Points: Disinfect remotes, light switches, and doorknobs.
  • Floors: Vacuum carpets and rugs; sweep and mop hard surfaces (including under furniture).
  • Upholstery: Vacuum cushions and check for hidden debris.
  • Waste: Empty all bins and replace liners.

Kitchen

  • Sanitisation: Disinfect worktops and small appliances (microwave, toaster).
  • Appliances: Wipe the fridge exterior/interior and scrub the hob/oven.
  • Dishware: Wash and dry all dishes or start the dishwasher cycle.
  • The Sink: Scrub the basin and clear the drain of any food particles.

Bathrooms

  • Scrub Down: Thoroughly clean the toilet (bowl, seat, and base).
  • Shower/Bath: Scrub tiles, tub, and fittings to remove soap scum.
  • Polish: Ensure mirrors and chrome fixtures are streak-free.
  • Linens: Replace used towels with fresh, folded sets.

Bedrooms

  • Fresh Linens: Change sheets, pillowcases, and duvet covers.
  • Dusting: Wipe down bedside tables, dressers, and lampshades.
  • Hidden Areas: Vacuum thoroughly in corners and under the bed.

Windows & Exterior

  • Glass: Clean windows (inside and out) and wipe glass tabletops.
  • Outdoor Spaces: Sweep patios, balconies, or decks.
  • Tidy Up: Straighten outdoor furniture and clear away cobwebs.

Finishing Touches

  • Restock: Replenish soap, shampoo, toilet paper, and coffee supplies.
  • Ambience: Add a pleasant, neutral scent or air freshener.
  • Lost & Found: Check drawers and under furniture for guest items.

Final Inspection

  1. Walk-through: Perform a final visual check for organisation and “flow.”
  2. Documentation: Take photos of every room to document the condition at the time of the next check-in.

Pro Tip: Don’t forget to check the “hidden” spots, such as the inside of the coffee maker and the lint trap in the dryer.
