How Much Does an Airbnb Co-Host Cost in Bradenton, Florida?

Bradenton and Anna Maria Island have become some of Florida’s fastest-growing vacation rental hotspots. With that comes big potential — and big responsibility. Whether you're an out-of-state investor or a local homeowner, managing an Airbnb here can quickly turn into a full-time job. That’s where co-hosts come in.

But how much does it actually cost to hand off your Airbnb to a professional?

Let’s break it down.

What Local Co-Hosts Typically Charge

Most Airbnb co-hosts in Bradenton charge a percentage of your rental income, ranging from:

• 20%–30% for full-service management

• 10%–18% for limited or custom support services

That means if your property brings in $5,000/month, expect to pay $1,000–$1,500 for full-service co-hosting.

At Check-In & Co., we keep things simple:

• 20% of net income (after insurance, cleaning, and tech fees)

• $140/month technology fee

• $25/month insurance (included in the nightly rate)

• $1,000 onboarding fee (one-time)

• Monthly payouts on the 10th of the following month

No surprise charges. No confusing line items. Just clean, transparent support.

What That Covers (And Why It Matters)

When you partner with a true co-host, you're not just paying someone to message guests.

Our full-service approach includes:

• Guest communication and 24/7 emergency support

• Listing optimization and multi-platform setup (Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com)

• Calendar and dynamic pricing management

• Turnover scheduling and quality control

• Local vendor coordination and restocking

• Monthly reports and performance reviews

• Welcome kits and branded guest experiences

It’s everything you need to operate like a pro without doing it all yourself.

Why Bradenton Homeowners Are Making the Switch

Bradenton isn’t a sleepy beach town anymore. Guests expect hotel-level experiences — fast check-ins, spotless spaces, and smart home convenience.

• Higher quality guests

• Consistent 5-star reviews

• Local support without micromanagement

• Freedom to scale without burning out

Whether you're managing from across town or out of state, co-hosting keeps your property polished and guest-ready year-round.
