In the bustling borough of Brooklyn, a young media couple, Jordana Heminway and Ahmad Hemingway, has not only opened their doors but transformed their first home into one of the most sought-after Airbnb destinations in New York City — welcome to the enchanting world of Brooklyn Pink.

A Safe Haven in Pink:

When faced with the decision of whether to rent a section of their new home, Jordana and Ahmad chose a different path. They envisioned creating a sanctuary where women could gather, connect, and revel in the comforts of home. Thus, the idea of “Brooklyn Pink” was born – a space adorned in hues of pink, meticulously designed to foster a sense of warmth and inclusivity.

From custom-designed furnishings to a pink-themed refrigerator, no aspect has been overlooked. The space exudes a playful yet sophisticated charm, inviting guests to unwind and indulge in the serenity of their surroundings.

“Brooklyn Pink” transcends the typical Airbnb experience, offering a range of amenities tailored to enhance guests’ stay. From fully stocked kitchens where guests need only bring their favorite food and drinks to the option of private chefs upon request, Jordana and Ahmad have thoughtfully curated every aspect of the experience. With two cozy rooms for sleepovers and an event space accommodating up to ten guests, “Brooklyn Pink” promises unforgettable moments for all who enter.

For Jordana and Ahmad, juggling their roles as full-time media professionals and new parents while managing “Brooklyn Pink” presents its challenges. However, their unwavering dedication to creating a haven for others fuels their determination to succeed.

A Rewarding Venture:

Despite the challenges, the most rewarding aspect of their venture has been the overwhelming support and positive feedback from guests. From across the country and around the globe, visitors flock to “Brooklyn Pink” to celebrate life’s special moments, reaffirming Jordana and Ahmad’s belief in the power of hospitality and connection.

Ahmad stated, “It’s humbling to know that people are coming here to celebrate their most cherished moments and from all over the world…we had a group of four people come from Ukraine..they’re coming to celebrate birthdays, bachelorettes, girls’ night…these are like the highlights because they are coming here to celebrate the highlights of their lives and spending their hard-earned money.”

Looking Ahead:

As “Brooklyn Pink” approaches its eight-month milestone, Jordana and Ahmad are excited about the future. With each guest they welcome and every memory created within its walls, their vision of fostering community and empowerment continues to thrive.

“Brooklyn Pink” stands not just as a place to stay but as a testament to the transformative power of hospitality, creativity, and love. For Jordana Heminway and Ahmad Hemingway, it is more than just an Airbnb – it is a labor of love and a sanctuary for all who seek refuge in its pink embrace.

Jordana noted that, “they would like to cater to everyone because there are times they have to turn people down because of the limited capacity so expansion is definitely within the three to four-year plan for sure to maybe have something bigger.”
