The Fresh Eyes Inspection course enables you, an Airbnb, self-catering or guest house owner, host or manager, to self-inspect your own guest accommodation through new eyes. You will see things that are right in front of you, which you hadn't noticed, because it's all too familiar.
Through the room-by-room inspection video course, with checklists, quiz sheets and expert interviews, I'll show you how to make the very best of your accommodation offering and exceed guests' expectations, how to create a guest experience rather than just an overnight stay, how to get post-Covid ready, and how to stand out from the crowd by identifying your USP and Wow Factor. All this leads to happy guests, rave reviews and more bookings.
All for the price of around one night at an Airbnb, priced for various parts of the world.

“The Fresh Eyes course is really good and definitely helped me look at things from a different point of view. It opened my eyes to the smaller details I’ve overlooked, like the neatness of cutlery drawers and I now have a list of things to work on. Thankyou Carrie” Sandy Potgeiter

Your course host - Carrie Hampton
As a former certified Star Rating Assessor for 10 years, assessing guest houses and hotels for their stars, I continued doing private inspections when peer reviews became more important than the stars on display. I still inspect more than 50 guest accommodations each year, using my Fresh Eyes method to see the things the owners miss, and to make sure their accommodation exceeds the guests' expectations.
With my do-it-yourself version of a Fresh Eyes Inspection, I give you the tools to see your own place through my eyes.
