Would not recommend. I've been on the app over a year, have accrued almost a month's worth of 'credits,' and there's never any inventory to use it. Have put in multiple requests for many different locations and dates. And the one time I did get a match the host cancelled. (There were only 2 open days, and was booking just to finally use some credits. The cleaning cost was significantly more than an Airbnb - so even though they cancelled I still saved money just paying outright for another spot.) Overall, it's been a loss for me as a homeowner.

All guests known are nice and caring and they respect the house It s a pleasure to guest them and it’s a really nice price to pay to have the opportunity to be hosted around the world in super houses

I’ve stayed at three homes now and am about to host a second time this summer. My second stay wasn’t great and we ended up having to leave the home but kindred was very responsive and took care of everything quickly. I revived my nights and money back immediately. Overall, this has been a great experience!

Three stays and about to host again, that's the spirit! We're really sorry to hear that your second stay didn't go as planned, but so glad the team was able to step in quickly and make it right. That's exactly what we're here for. Here's to a wonderful summer of hosting, Jackie!

Extremely professional with a lot of heart and soul. I love being a Kindred host and appreciate all the little details from kindred that make doing this a pleasure; not a hassle!

I recently hosted my first guests on Kindred. From the initial contact, through the confirmation, check in and finally check out the process was simple. Looking forward to hosting more guests soon
