History of South End Hospitality
We started Home Sharing on Airbnb by using a spare bedroom in one of our own South End apartments, to make some extra cash. We welcomed guests from the US and all over world, including France, Australia, and India. Sometimes we bring our guests with us to parties or share a bottle of wine with them after work. Listening to our guests’ stories, sharing our backgrounds, and helping them learn about the great city of Boston really makes the Airbnb experience special and unique.
We turned this passion for hospitality into a full service Airbnb management company, launching South End Hospitality in September of 2015.Our first contract was for complete management services for a small studio apartment in South Boston. Our business is growing, as we have added multiple listings in Boston and Cambridge, all using our signature Hand Us The Keys Service.
