Travel the way you live

ECHOHOST GUIDELINES

Here at CoHost, we’ve noticed a trend with guests wishing for a more sustainable and eco-friendly accommodation. More and more people are desiring green cleaning and linens. I started the first Green Cleaning Service back in 1991, and have the knowledge to convert your existing Airbnb space into a green one. This is very desirable for the discerning and eco-aware traveler.

EcoHosting: Offering earth-friendly spaces for the “green” traveler makes your space more appealing. It is good economics and good for the planet. Organic "earth friendly" products are not only available everywhere but are also economical. Let us assist you in creating a one-of-kind experience for those wishing to “travel the way they live” - healthy, wholesome and eco-aware.

 

It can be done with simple steps such as:
1. Organic bedding, towels and linens
2. Organic amenities 
3. Green cleaning 

Here are some examples to meet EcoHost requirements:

More Serious Savings.

Less energy use reduces the demand from power plants and decreases greenhouse gas emissions. This LED bulb is sold as 24 pack on Amazon

Water heating is the second largest energy expense in your home. It typically accounts for about 18% of your utility bill after heating and cooling. To conserve hot water, install low-flow fixtures. This Low Flow Shower Head is sold on Amazon
