Airbnb cleaning (concierge) or a regular housekeeper: what's the difference?
A common point of confusion for hosts discovering Adom: should you choose Airbnb Cleaning or a regular housekeeper? Both services clean a home, but they answer entirely different logics. This guide compares the two to help you choose.
A different billing logic
The most structural difference is billing. A regular housekeeper is billed by the hour, starting at 40 DH/h, for a recurring or one-off visit in a primary residence. Airbnb Cleaning, on the other hand, is billed per turnover, starting at 120 DH/turnover — meaning per guest changeover, regardless of the exact duration of the visit, since the service is standardized (a complete reset between two stays).
What each service covers
Airbnb Cleaning covers the full turnover of a short-term rental: linens changed, consumables restocked, an identical reset between two guests, often on the same day as one departure and the next arrival. A regular housekeeper covers routine or deep upkeep of a primary residence, without that tight-turnaround constraint between two stays.
Which service to choose based on your situation
- You rent out a property short-term (Airbnb, Booking): Airbnb Cleaning is the right service, built for the logic of rental management and guest turnover.
- You maintain your primary residence, whether regularly or occasionally: it's a regular housekeeper you should choose, not Airbnb Cleaning.
- You manage several short-term rental properties: Airbnb Cleaning remains the solution, with per-turnover billing that adapts to the pace of your bookings rather than a fixed weekly schedule.
Our FAQ on regular vs. one-off housekeeping commitment already details this distinction: Airbnb Cleaning answers a rental-management logic, not a domestic one.
