If your Squamish home welcomes guests while you travel, the hosting work should fit around the life you already have there. Talk to bnbHost about the home, dates and support you need. We consider each enquiry on its own facts, including the permissions and local arrangements required to take it on.
Principal residence comes before the listing
Squamish's standard route is a licensed short-term rental in the operator's principal residence. Secondary suites and coach houses are not automatically eligible: the District has a separate temporary-use-permit route, and its published 30-unit cap is currently full. Do not plan on a new permit being available.
The District also requires property managers to hold a property-management business licence. Any management start depends on establishing the applicable operator and manager requirements; this page does not claim that a specific licence has been granted.
Make arrivals practical for your home
- Keep personal space personal. Agree storage and rooms that remain private when guests stay.
- Describe gear facilities accurately. If you offer bike or equipment storage, state the real access and capacity rather than promising an amenity the home does not have.
- Plan for wet arrivals. Decide where guests leave footwear and equipment, and how linen and cleaning work between bookings.
- Give clear parking and neighbour instructions. The welcome information should reflect the property's actual restrictions, with a contact route when something needs attention.
The work to discuss with bnbHost
Listing presentation, pricing, booking management, photography, guest messages, cleaning, keys and maintenance should fit the permitted home and your household. Our management overview explains the nine services. The review establishes whether we can accept the property and which delivery arrangements are needed.
Your fee, with the details agreed first
The management fee is 22% per booking, and property insurance is included. The calculation, additional costs, policy details and owner-use arrangements are written into your management agreement and explained before you sign. No booking level or income is promised.
Tell us what you want to host
Send the address, the dwelling you live in, proposed dates and any existing licence or permit details. If your question concerns a suite, say so at the start; its permission route differs from the main home.
For wider context, see our BC short-term rental guide. A property in Whistler needs its own zoning review; the two municipalities do not share the same hosting rules.
