Morphology
The expression combines the transparent parts 'host' and the superlative 'the most', so a learner who knows those words can reasonably infer it means a host who is the best or has the greatest qualities/amenities. However, its colloquial, rhyming idiom status and imprecise nuance (charisma, resources, popularity) make the exact meaning and usage somewhat conventional and not fully predictable without exposure.
Etymology
Host with the most paints a picture of a host who brings the most—lots of food, games and friendly energy—so everyone has a great time. So it means 'a person who is very good at hosting'.
