This article will discuss the question of whether finding an Airbnb for birthday parties in San Diego makes sense. We will also get into the process of renting the ideal birthday party venue through Peerspace, the largest online marketplace for hourly venue rentals. Keep reading for our advice!
Should I use Airbnb for birthday parties in San Diego?

You probably already know through first-hand experience that Airbnb is a top-notch website for locating places to stay for your vacation or other travel (that is, lodging-type purposes). Understandably, you might want to use the platform to book a birthday party venue. After all, Airbnb makes it easy to uncover cool locations in San Diego and beyond.
However, there are several reasons why it’s not the best platform for people looking for event venue rentals:
*Not* ideal for hosting events
As we know, most Airbnb rental spaces are designed to serve as temporary accommodations and many of the spaces listed on the Airbnb website will not be a good fit for your birthday party.
This is because some spaces won’t have the amenities needed for a successful gathering, even features as basic as adequate seating required to host a party with more than a few people.
And for some spaces, the hosts might not want you to throw a party there at all. In fact, Airbnb has officially codified a ban against its properties serving as party venues! If you weren’t aware of this, going through this process of elimination will waste your time and energy, which would be much better spent on the more enjoyable aspects of party planning.
Pricing structure
Also, Airbnbs rent out per day/night (that is, per 24-hour period). This ends up wasting money too since your party almost certainly won’t take up all the time when you’d be renting out the space. After all, even amazing parties usually don’t last a full 24 hours!
In short, trying to book an Airbnb for birthday parties in San Diego will waste your precious time and money. Luckily, Peerspace is a much better alternative. We’ll describe why in the next section.
Not that you’re one step closer to discovering the perfect birthday party venue, you just need a few birthday activity ideas. We have you covered there too with our favorite San Diego birthday party ideas!
Consider Peerspace your Airbnb for birthday parties in San Diego

So what do you do when you want to book a fresh, exciting venue for your next birthday party? You turn to Peerspace!
Peerspace is the internet’s most extensive marketplace for hourly event, meeting, and production venue rentals. When we say “extensive,” we mean extensive. In fact, the site offers you access to thousands of spaces listed for rent throughout hundreds of cities in North America, the UK, and beyond.
Like on Airbnb, locals list their unique spaces on the Peerspace platform for you to book. Unlike Airbnb, however, Peerspace hosts invite you to enjoy your personal events in their spaces. This means you are totally allowed to host your birthday party in a Peerspace venue listed as an event space. And unlike Airbnb, Peerspaces are priced by the hour.
While Peerspace hosts typically have a minimum number of hours you can rent their spaces for, it’s nowhere like the 24-hour pricing structure Airbnb has in place. With Peerspace, you can expect a minimum of three to four hours, which is more suitable for a party.
Now you better understand the Peerspace structure and how it’s like an Airbnb for birthday party venues. Next, let’s take a look at how to find your ideal party venue in San Diego.
How to use Peerspace to book your dream birthday party venue

Okay, so Peerspace can potentially connect you to hundreds of birthday party spaces in San Diego and thousands more outside the city. You might be concerned that having access to many listings available for rental will make the search process a time-consuming one.
But don’t be overwhelmed! Peerspace makes searching through their listings ultra simple with their intuitive and easy-to-use search tool.
Here’s how:
Visit our homepage
The process is so straightforward – just head to our homepage and input the type of event you’re planning (“birthday party,” of course), the location (San Diego), and the date of the party if you know the exact date you’re hosting it.
Input handy filters
After you complete this initial search, you’ll probably get a ton of results, which you can easily whittle down to the best possibilities by choosing specifics among all the site’s more detailed search criteria.
Narrow down your search results by price range, the venue’s size, the space type, its amenities, if the venue has both indoor/outdoor space, and plenty more.
You can even use keywords to only uncover properties that have specific amenities on-site, like swimming pools, rooftops, firepits, movie theaters, and more. Whatever you like!
Browse listings
Now you’re ready to browse specific listings and do a more in-depth investigation as you seek the perfect venue for a birthday party. Every venue has its own listing with useful details.
These include an in-depth description of the space and what it has to offer, high-quality photos of the space, upfront pricing a, and honest reviews from those who’ve actually rented the space in the past.
Get in touch with your venue’s host
It’s also super easy to contact the host of a Peerspace if you need to ask them any other questions or make requests regarding your rental. And we have to give our Peerspace hosts a huge shout-out here. They not only list their special spaces for you to rent for your birthday party, but they can also be hands-on during the party planning process.
Some hosts offer catering and entertainment packages as optional add-on services. Others are happy to help you procure San Diego’s tastiest cuisine and have a list of local vendor recommendations if you need them. Just ask, and they’ll be happy to help!
