United StatesKindred is a members-only home swapping network that harnesses the power of a trusted community to unlock a lifestyle rich with travel and human connection. By exchanging homes and apartments with peers, both renters and owners alike can access the opportunity to travel freely between vetted homes across North America and Europe. HOW IT WORKS Using Kindred is simple: you give a night to get a night. Members can swap homes 1-for-1, or book stays with credits earned by hosting others. For each night you host a member, you receive a credit to book a stay of your own at any Kindred home. Once booked, your Kindred concierge takes care of all of logistics to make hosting and staying a breeze – from professional cleaning, to shipping you the guest sheets and toiletries – so you can focus on enjoying your trip.

Amazing
United StatesGreat app and product
I love using Kindred and the app makes it so easy and seamless
United StatesBetter than airbnb
Cheaper and much nicer stays. Have stayed 10 times and every place is actually a place you want to spend time in vs a vacation rental
United StatesGive/Get Balance is Off
We’ve been on Kindred since launch and have hosted our home, but have found it extremely difficult to use the platform as a Guest and stay somewhere. None of the inventory is seemingly actually available (“Open to Inquires” typically means the opposite). We get requests frequently for our home but have decided that until we can actually stay somewhere ourselves it’s been mostly the platform “taking” without a lot of value to us. It is probably very useful for those who frequent SF-NYC (I imagine for business trips). There’s a ton of inventory for that particular itinerary. Not a ton of other options if you’re actually looking to travel somewhere fun and different.
United StatesAmazing concept
I'm stoked to travel with Kindred!
United StatesGreat way to travel
I’ve traveled with Kindred twice now and hosted 6 times. Both staying and hosting a Kindred are very smooth experiences. When hosting, the guests have always been respectful and the cleaners are great - my place is always even cleaner than when I left. When traveling, Kindred is definitely the most affordable solution for long (or short) stays. Availability at the right place at the right time can be challenging but it has gotten much easier to find a place as the user base grows
United StatesGood idea poorly managed
This is a great idea that is poorly executed. The experience as a host is dismal and I do not trust that my place is going to be well taken care of. Feels impossible to find a place to rent without it being more expensive than a hotel or Air bnb.
