Can you charge for smoking in Airbnb?

Can You Enforce an Airbnb Smoking Fee? Technically, you cannot set an official Airbnb smoking fee. However, you can inform your guests about the consequences of breaking a no-smoking policy. Consequences can include leaving the guest a negative review and losing the security deposit on their rental.

Unfortunately, you can't set a special Airbnb smoking fee to say something like, “No smoking, or there will be an extra cleaning fee.” You can't also make a charge against their security deposit. And if you want to allow smoking on your rental property, you should clearly define designated smoking areas.

If you don't have any of these things, then you can also spray some air freshener around your room before and after you start smoking. Block smoke from exiting under your bedroom door.
