What are the requirements to be Airbnb Plus? And currently you can only find Airbnb Plus homes in a limited number of locations – including Los Angeles, London, Melbourne, Rome, Lisbon and Shanghai – but this is expanding all the time.

The Airbnb Plus collection includes both entire homes, and rooms/apartments within shared homes. I used to spend hours trawling through the site, looking for the best options, so I’m not surprised lots of the places I found have made the cut. As lovers of good design, we really appreciate the quality of the curation – every Airbnb Plus place we’ve stayed in has been exceptionally stylish.Īlthough Airbnb Plus has only been around since 2018, we’ve stayed in a lot of AirBnB Plus homes because many of the places we stayed in before it was introduced have now been upgraded to that status. It offers a really handy shortcut for finding Airbnb’s best properties. What is AirBnB Plus?Īirbnb Plus is Airbnb’s curated collection of outstanding AirBnB homes, chosen for their exceptional design and great hospitality. We’ve also written a full guide to how to find the best Airbnb. However, because there are so many places available on AirBnB, unless you know what to look for, it can be a bit hit and miss finding a great place to stay, which is why Airbnb Plus is so useful. Plus it’s often the most reasonably priced option available, allowing you to stay in an apartment for the same price as a hotel room. We tend to choose places owned by artists and people working in the creative industries, so it’s a quick shortcut to getting a taste of how our counterparts live in the place we’re visiting. For us, it was a natural step up from our couchsurfing days and offered all the benefits of an apartment rental service, but with oodles more character.

We’ve long been fans of Airbnb, using it both as travellers and hosts.
