Go per person. If by bedroom, need to give the person that gets stuck in the small or moldy bedroom a deep discount. Frankly I would reconsider going. Being single in these situations automatically means you will get the smallest or crappiest room because your didn’t bring a significant other and/or kids
Haha I thought some of the kids were OP’s. Maybe not.
Id do it based on total volume of air consumed per person per day. Can you have everyone do a simple lung capacity test before this vacation?

Man people on the internet are sarcastic AF. Glad I got some helpful responses to balance out the sass 😘
Add the ages up, then divide by the amount of rooms, then take out the mean height of all the people at the Airbnb, and the ones that are below the height should give up an extra 1%.

Have y’all also considered layering in the various opportunity costs involved here
Per adult. Assuming single ppl won’t get their own rooms? And families get bigger nicer rooms
Pro
Single people can share a room if they would like and split or pay for their own room.
Definitely per room. That's the fairest way.
Pro
Whew. At least this is debatable. Was worried I’m being a cheap bastard for having this view 😅 just not sure how adding my husband to my bed should double our costs.
Chief
There’s no fair way to do this. Just let everyone sort out their own accommodations.

I suggest taking out the strongest of each family first. The children can’t fight that well and you can hold them off until you’re ready.
Per person
Assuming rooms are similar enough I’d do a blended approach. Pay per room with an additional 50% for each person after the first. I don’t think it should be double for an extra person, but not free either since they use common space, bathrooms showers etc.
Are all the rooms about the same size and equally nice? I’d do per room if so.
And on a personal note, one time in an AirBNB my husband and I had to split a bunk bed with another friend on the second bunk bed in the room, and yet had to pay the same per adult amount as a family that got the biggest room and effectively a floor to themselves. I was pissed.
Per room isn’t always fair. I’m just with family right now, and the room I’m getting is the same quality as the one my niece is getting while my sister and her husband and my parents are getting the two upstairs master bedrooms. I would say per person, including each child as a person. You’re also sharing the rest of the Airbnb with people, not just where you sleep.

Yeah I might suggest just all staying at the same family friendly resort and people can choose their own adventure on how to bunk up. Airbnb when people are in different stages in life is really complicated. I’m not trying to screw anyone but not sure people with kids under 2 will want to pay anything extra for them
I’d split the rental cost by bed, and other trip costs by person.
Pro
Per person, And then play twister for rooms.
Pro
Correct.
I recently shared an Airbnb- dynamics were:
Me and my wife (we got the biggest room)
Male friend in one room
Female friend in another room
They split the costs per person, I was definitely unhappy about paying per person.

I mean if one bed is king size and that room has an en-suite bathroom, that room is probably more valuable.
The valuation is really complex. The space your kids take up in the living room means it makes sense to pay more for them being there, even if they share a room with you.
I definitely would try to avoid this type of vacation.
As a matter of fact my family is doing something similar this summer and I am sure we would all end up pissed if it were not for the fact that one person is paying for everything
Per bed
Rising Star
Per bed but a king bed is more valuable than a twin, and a shared room is cheaper than getting a room to yourself, right?
Ask the group you're going with, then decide of you think it's fair or not.
Chief
Maybe the husband should sleep in his own bed.
Per room. Wife and I always got a room with a queen or king depending. Those in bunked rooms paying half. We never set the vacation, but always invited and never an issue from our end. Also have to think of the experience vs just your room.
