To become an Airbnb superhost, you need 10 stays, reservations, or a certain number of booked days. You also need a 4.8 overall rating and a response rate of 90%, as well as 10 completed reservations or 100 nights booked over three months. The reason for that is if someone's renting a monthly, a lot of hosts have a monthly minimum, so you don't need 10 stays of 10 months, you just need 100 nights and a less-than-1.0% cancellation rate. Airbnb reviews these every quarter.

Becoming a Superhost and top-rated host on Airbnb requires consistently providing excellent experiences for your guests. Here are the key steps:
Maintain high ratings – Guests rate hosts on communication, cleanliness, accuracy, and overall experience. Aim for at least 4.8–5.0 stars consistently.
Be responsive – Reply to guest inquiries quickly (within 24 hours or less). Prompt communication improves your rating and guest satisfaction.
Host frequently – Superhosts usually complete a minimum number of stays per year (Airbnb requires at least 10 completed stays or 3 reservations that total at least 100 nights).
Avoid cancellations – Canceling bookings can hurt your status. Only cancel when absolutely necessary.
Deliver outstanding experiences – Small touches like local tips, cleanliness, and attention to detail help you get glowing reviews.
Airbnb evaluates hosts every 3 months, so keeping up with these standards consistently is crucial. Top-rated hosts not only earn the Superhost badge but also attract more bookings and higher visibility on the platform.
