AirBnB’s newest feature private chef and service bookings is now live in Louisiana, including New Orleans. Guests can now book authentic crawfish boils or spa treatments through the app, bringing hotel-style amenities to rental homes. But while travelers love the convenience, Louisiana hosts are sounding the alarm. Services are auto-enabled with no commission for hosts, sparking concerns about liability, property damage, and insurance gaps. Some see it as a game-changer for guest experiences, while others say it’s a legal and logistical nightmare waiting to happen.
Would you let a stranger cook in your kitchen or give massages in your rental? Hosts and travelers, what’s your take?
