Host Planet & Hospitable to spotlight STR superstars

Host Planet and Hospitable are joining forces to create an exciting e-book and podcast series that shines a light on the best and brightest in the short-term rental (STR) industry.

The Host Planet Playbook is a global storytelling project that will feature 30 exceptional STR hosts and property managers from around the world, showcasing the journeys, tools, tips, and tech that power their businesses.

The playbook and podcast series will be a celebration of the entrepreneurs behind the listings, and a chance for new and experienced hosts alike to learn from real-world experiences.

Feature in the Host Planet Playbook

Whether you’re managing a seaside villa in Portugal, a mountain cabin in Canada, or a city apartment in Tokyo, we want to hear from you.

We’re looking for a diverse range of hosts and property managers:

• From solopreneurs managing a handful of listings to large-scale operators with hundreds of properties.

• Across every continent and type of destination.

• With unique stories, real lessons learned, and a passion for hospitality.

  
  

Here’s what to expect if you’re selected:

• Feature in the Host Planet Playbook – a free e-book which will be released in September 2025.

• Star in a dedicated episode of the Host Planet Podcast, produced in partnership with Hospitable.

• Promote your properties, brand, and story to a global audience in more than 90 countries.

• Help thousands of hosts and managers level up with your advice.

• This is a free opportunity with huge visibility potential through Host Planet and Hospitable platforms.
