Yale Smart Safe with Bluetooth
2.9/5 Best Safe Score (how we score)
I picked this smart safe from Yale for hosts who manage from afar: it opens by keypad, key or the Yale Access app, which can share access and show history, and it has two anti-saw bolts and a tamper alarm.

Who it's for
- Best app-controlled safe for remote hosts in Best Safe for Airbnb – 5 Guest Safes With a Host Override Key: Hosts with several listings who want to share access and see who opened the safe; remote access needs a Yale Connect Wi-Fi Bridge or an Apple TV, and Yale says it is not fire or water certified.
What we like
- Keypad, key or app entry, with access sharing and history
- Alarm after incorrect entries, then a 5-minute lockdown, per Yale
- Door-activated light, shelf and key hooks inside
What to know first
- Remote access needs an extra Wi-Fi bridge or an Apple TV
- Owners on Yale's site report Wi-Fi drops and one unit that would not lock
