Done-for-You Airbnb Setup Service
We furnish and set up your Airbnb from empty to guest-ready. Designed, sourced, bought, installed, styled, and photographed, so you get a finished rental that is built to book, without lifting a thing yourself.
Hand us the keys. Get back a rental ready to book
Setting up a short-term rental is a project most owners underestimate. There is the concept to get right, dozens of pieces to specify and buy, deliveries to chase, flat-pack to build, and a hundred small details that decide whether a guest feels welcomed or short-changed. Get any of it wrong and the calendar stays quiet.
The done-for-you setup service takes all of it off your plate. We design the property, source and buy every piece, install and style it in person, and finish with listing photos that are ready to publish. You approve the plan and the budget, then we run the project to a finished, guest-ready result.
The point of doing it properly is simple. A rental that is designed, not just filled, photographs better, reads better in search, and gives guests a reason to book it over the one next door. Thoughtful, guest-first design is what turns a listing into a booked calendar.
You do none of the work
No sourcing spreadsheets, no delivery windows, no assembly. We manage the whole setup and hand you a finished property.
Built to book from day one
Every room is planned around the photos that sell it and the experience that earns the review, not just a bed and a sofa.
One fixed scope, agreed up front
You approve the concept, the budget, and the dates before anything is bought, so the project runs without surprises.
Five stages, from empty to guest-ready
The full turnkey setup, run in clear stages you approve as we go.
1. Strategy
We study your market, your ideal guest, and the listings you are up against, then set a positioning the property will win bookings on.
2. Design
The concept, layouts, palettes, and a room-by-room plan, with a budget you sign off before a single item is bought.
3. Sourcing
We specify and buy every piece, furniture, decor, and the essentials guests expect, and manage the orders and deliveries for you.
4. Install & Style
We assemble, place, and style the whole property in person, down to the finishing details that make a space feel considered.
5. Listing Photos
The finished rental, photographed and ready to publish, so your listing looks like the experience it is the moment it goes live.
Guest-ready, handed over
You receive a complete, bookable property. For the deeper detail, see our rental furniture guide and essentials checklist.
For hosts who want it handled
If your time is worth more than a season of trial and error, this is the service that gets your rental designed, furnished, and booking.
Busy hosts
You have the property and the ambition, not the weeks it takes to source, buy, build, and style it yourself. We run it for you.
Out-of-state & investor owners
You own a rental in a market you are not near. We design it remotely and set it up on the ground, so distance is not the bottleneck.
New listings
A first launch, or a fresh unit that needs to open strong. We get it guest-ready and photographed so it competes from day one.

In person or virtual
Hands-on setup in the Florida markets we serve and across the Catskills, Hudson Valley, and NYC, and full virtual design for rentals anywhere in the United States.
Design led by someone who thinks in numbers
Michael Intérieurs is led by Michael, who spent 20 years in data science before graduating from the New York Institute of Art and Design and founding the studio.
That background is the difference. Every choice in a setup is made for how the property actually performs once guests are in it, not just how it looks in one photo. It is a considered, guest-first approach, and considered design is what a rental books on.

Airbnb setup, answered
An Airbnb setup service takes a rental from empty to guest-ready for you. We handle the whole thing: the design concept, the furniture and decor sourcing, the buying, the delivery and assembly, the styling down to the small details, and the listing photos. You get a finished, bookable property without doing the work or the shopping yourself.
Turnkey setup starts from $8,700 for the design and setup service, separate from the cost of the furniture itself, which depends on the size and standard of the property. The right number depends on the number of rooms and the finish you want. You can see how the packages are structured on our short-term rental interior design pricing page, and we confirm a fixed scope on a discovery call.
Most rentals are guest-ready in six to twelve weeks from the go-ahead. The exact timeline depends on the size of the property, lead times on the pieces we source, and delivery windows in your market. We set the dates with you up front so you can plan your first bookings around them.
Yes. With the done-for-you setup we source and purchase everything, then manage delivery, assembly, and installation. You approve the plan and the budget before anything is bought, so there are no surprises. If you would rather buy the pieces yourself, we can point you to our rental furniture guide and deliver a virtual plan with a shoppable list.
Yes. We work in person across the Catskills, the Hudson Valley, New York City, and Florida, with hands-on setup in the Florida markets we serve. For rentals anywhere else in the United States, we design virtually and deliver a complete plan and a shoppable list, so a property we are not local to still gets a full concept without the travel cost.
The full turnkey setup covers five stages: strategy for the market and the guest, the design concept and layouts, sourcing and buying every piece, install and styling until the space is finished, and listing photos ready to publish. The result is a rental you can hand straight to guests. Furniture guidance and a full essentials list are covered in more detail on our short-term rental furniture and Airbnb essentials checklist pages.

What clients say
Michael has an incredible eye for design, detail and functionality. His vision made the entire project come together beautifully. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a talented, reliable designer. 10/10.
Michael is very professional and dedicated. He took time during his vacation to visit my apartment to give me an estimate and draft examples of what we could do. I was very impressed.
