Why hosts in this zone love Refstay
If you host an Airbnb in or near Catalina Island, your guests are already searching "best activities in Catalina Island" before they land. Refstay turns that search into your income. You share one link — refstay.com/r/your-name — and every time a guest books a jet ski, boat tour, snorkel trip or any of the 245 vetted activities in our Catalina Island catalog, you earn 5% commission, paid monthly. No selling, no inventory, no FareHarbor setup. Just a link you drop in your welcome book.

How the math works
A typical Catalina Island Airbnb hosts 15-25 guest groups per month. If just 3 of them book a $250 activity through your link, that's $37.50/month in pure passive income. Hosts who add the link to their welcome book and send it via WhatsApp at check-in convert 30-50% of guests. The math compounds quickly.
You don't need to choose an operator, negotiate rates, or write descriptions. Refstay handles all of that. Your job is to share one link with your Catalina Island Airbnb guests. We track the booking via FareHarbor's secure attribution, hold your 5% commission, and pay it out monthly via PayPal or Zelle.
