[quote=Anonymous]Agree with others who've had a varied experience - it really just seems to depend on the place re whether they'll have stuff on hand or not, and the ones who do tend to list it in their description.

I've had mixed experiences too, but we tend to still dine out even if we're staying at airbnbs so haven't needed to do much cooking. (Even at a remote mountain one I ordered a bunch of Uber Eats before we lefts and packed it along in a big cooler.)

We just stayed at a well-stocked one that I thought had a helpful mix of things on hand - canisters of sugar, coffee, and tea, plus coffee filters, dishwasher tabs, laundry pods, dish soap, and hotel style shower products (the big refillable kinds). Also a generous amount of towels & pillows with more in closets if needed, and we didn't need to do laundry or cleaning when we ended the visit. It was much nicer than a previous one where we had to do a ton of work for a place that was technically well stocked but the supplies (including spices, oil, etc.) all seemed dirty.

We still prefer airbnb because it gives us more space for lower cost than getting two hotel rooms, so I have a separate packing list for when we're staying in one that includes little containers of detergent pods, fire starter melts, scissors, paper towels, beach blanket, paper plates, etc. It was kind of a pain to put together the first time, but we just added what we wished we'd had along on other trips and now that it's established it's easier to just keep that bag in storage and refill as needed.[/quote]
