Over 90% Off Stays: How Troy and Donna Transformed Travel with Hostshare
For Airbnb hosts Troy and Donna, travel used to come with a hefty price tag—until they discovered Hostshare. This innovative platform allowed them to enjoy stays at other hosts’ properties at over 90% off, opening up a world of affordable exploration. In their first Hostshare experience, they found the process seamless and the savings game-changing. Here’s how Hostshare helped them rethink travel and why it could do the same for you.
The Challenge: High Travel Costs for Hosts
As seasoned Airbnb hosts, Troy and Donna knew the ins and outs of the short-term rental world. While they loved hosting, they faced a common challenge: the high cost of travel. Standard booking platforms like Airbnb meant paying full price for stays, which made frequent trips or longer vacations feel out of reach. They craved a way to explore new destinations without the financial strain, all while experiencing unique properties as guests themselves.
Discovering Hostshare: A Game-Changer for Hosts
Troy and Donna’s solution came when they discovered Hostshare, a platform designed specifically for short-term rental hosts to connect and exchange stays. Unlike traditional booking sites, Hostshare focuses on sharing unbooked nights—allowing hosts to stay at each other’s properties for free (aside from cleaning fees) or at a steep discount. Intrigued by the concept, Troy and Donna decided to give it a try. “We’re Airbnb hosts, so using Hostshare was just as easy,” they shared. The platform’s simplicity and host-exclusive community made it a perfect fit for their needs.

The Results: Over 90% Off Their First Stay
The impact of Hostshare was immediate. On their first trip using the platform, Troy and Donna enjoyed a stay at another host’s property with over 90% off the regular price. They were thrilled not only by the savings but also by the opportunity to experience a space curated by fellow hosts. “It’s really just people just like us who share in space, giving us the opportunity to experience other hosts for free or at least 90% percent free,” they explained. The process was seamless, and the sense of community among hosts made the experience even more rewarding.
Why Hostshare Stands Out
What sets Hostshare apart is its focus on hosts helping hosts. The platform allows short-term rental owners to share last-minute unbooked nights (within five days), ensuring no revenue is lost on peak bookings. Hosts can travel up to 21 nights per year, even if their own properties are fully booked, with no obligation to share their own listings. It’s a cost-effective way to travel while connecting with a community that values hospitality. For more insights on the benefits of home-sharing for hosts, check out this Airbnb hosting guide.
