VaultSTRThe best dinnerware for an Airbnb.
Plates live a hard life in a rental. The winning strategy is dinnerware that refuses to chip and restocks piece by piece, in settings for more people than the listing sleeps.
Why dinnerware are different in a rental.
Corelle 18-Piece Dinnerware (serves 6)
Corelle is the STR cheat code: nearly unbreakable, feather-light, dishwasher-eternal, and sold in open stock forever. The default in every VaultSTR kitchen list.

How many do you need?
Settings for max occupancy plus two; glasses at 1.5× occupancy; flatware at occupancy plus four (teaspoons vanish). Size the whole property in one pass with Build My Setup.
How many plates should an Airbnb have?
Dinner and salad plates plus bowls for maximum occupancy + 2, in one pattern. Mismatched counts and patterns read as wear even when everything is clean.
Is Corelle really durable enough for rentals?
It is the most drop-survivable mainstream dinnerware made; when a piece finally dies it dies visibly (no hidden chips), and the identical replacement is $4 away.
