Inside Airbnb CoHost Property Manager: the 6-tab breakdown

A tab-by-tab look at what's inside Airbnb CoHost Property Manager, why each tab exists, and how landlords actually use them.

Inside Airbnb CoHost Property Manager: the 6-tab breakdown

Cohost like a real business.

There's a version of every Excel workbook where the tabs are named after abstractions — "Sheet1", "Data", "Table3". This isn't one of those. Every tab in Airbnb CoHost Property Manager exists to answer a specific question landlords ask themselves every week. Here's what each one does and why it earned its place in the file.

The problem this workbook solves

Landlords spend a lot of time answering the same questions with different math each week. What are we owed? What did that job actually cost? Is the schedule realistic? Where's the money going? Airbnb CoHost Property Manager shipped with 6 tabs because that's the number it took to answer all of them cleanly.

The tabs, one by one

1. Dashboard

Opens first. This is the daily snapshot — the numbers landlords check before they check email. Auto-populated from the other tabs; no formulas to write.

2. Properties

The master list. Every item, its key data points, and its status. Everything else references back to this.

3. Bookings

Purpose-built for a specific slice of the work landlords do every week. Formulas pre-wired, no setup required.

4. Owner Splits

Purpose-built for a specific slice of the work landlords do every week. Formulas pre-wired, no setup required.

5. Cleaning

Purpose-built for a specific slice of the work landlords do every week. Formulas pre-wired, no setup required.

6. Expenses

Every dollar out, categorized. Tax-ready when April arrives. Prevents the shoebox of receipts problem.

Three things this workbook actually does that most others don't

  • Per-owner revenue split. Practical, landlords-tested, not just theoretical.
  • Occupancy + cleaning turns. Practical, landlords-tested, not just theoretical.
  • Booking + expense log. Timestamped, sortable, exportable. Print-friendly if you like a physical binder alongside.

When landlords should NOT use this

Honest note: if you have a team of 10+ people needing real-time collaboration, Airbnb CoHost Property Manager is not the right tool. That's a Notion or Airtable situation. Airbnb CoHost Property Manager is built for the solo owner or 1-2 person operation who wants to open a file, plug in real numbers, and see the answer without spinning up a database.
