Find Amazing Rental Properties
FOR
TURNING SPARE ROOMS INTO THE WORLD’S HOTTEST HOTEL CHAIN
Introduction to Airbnb
Airbnb
is a website that connects individuals who have a space to rent with travelers
seeking a place to stay. Accommodation could be a spare room to rent, or B and
B-type lodging, or an entire home or apartment. Airbnb has evolved rapidly from its start in 2008 and has moved from more of a "rent spare space in my home" approach to full-on rentals of apartments or houses. Many listings still embody the "share my home" philosophy, but a wide variety of other options are available to travelers and are easily searchable.
Along the way in its rapid development, Airbnb has added many "Trust and Safety" features -- read more, below.
Airbnb is a fast-growing social media phenomenon, connecting supply and demand via a friendly interface and with a sense of fun. At time of writing, guests can search for treehouses, castles, boats, caves, yurts, tipis, earth houses, and more.
