Description

Overview:

Stay at your own vacation rental, located in an illegal settlement and in violation of international law. Support structural discrimination and theft of Palestinians’ land. Through fees earned from settlement vacation rentals, you will also help Airbnb profit from the continuing occupation and dispossession of Palestinians.

The Neighbourhood:

This home is located in an illegal Jewish-only settlement. These settlements are built by Israel on Palestinian land it has occupied since 1967, and are considered illegal under international law.

The space:

The stolen home includes views of the West Bank Apartheid Wall.

Guest Access:

Access is for non-Palestinian guests only. Guests with Arab-sounding names will be subject to additional scrutiny by settlement security.

House rules

All those would could be perceived as Arabs must be accompanied by armed guards while in the Settlement, for their own protection.

  • Do people actually pay for this?? This is hideous.

  • Hugely disappointed with Airbnb, how they are allowed to exploit in this day and age is mind boggling. I will never be using this company again.

  • Please don’t sell out basic human rights and build your business on the back of the misery and suffering of thousands of people. This is unethical and inhuman. If there is an ounce of integrity to your company ban the advertising and rental of properties that are stolen, leaving families homeless. Please stop showing properties in Palestine or anywhere else in the world where human rights are violated.

  • Shame, renting these houses is a violation of basic human rights. This has to stop!

  • Never in a million years would I stay with an AirBnB host who is illegally occupying Palestinian land. I am seriously considering closing my (highly rated) hosting account with AirBnB because of this. You make plenty of money – you don’t need to allow listings that represent massive human rights violations. Do the right thing so my family can continue hosting and my friends (many of whom are past AirBnB guests) can still enjoy your otherwise appreciated services.

  • It should be withdrawn, because staying here makes tourists …..SQUATTERS. Illegal ones. “Come on holiday and become a criminal” doesn’t sound what one wants from a holiday. Put plainly., the whole thing is disgusting and hateful. I hope and pray there aren’t any takers for these holiday developments. Let it die the death it deserves.

  • I am going to stay in an AirBnb property in the UK in a few weeks. I would love to visit Palestine but I am horrified to hear about these illegal settlements. The Palestinians can’t get permission to build houses and yet these settlements are springing up on their land and they have lots of spare space – hence the Airbnb. THis is totally wrong. Please get out Airbnb….

  • Crime against humanity. Should be punishable in law.

  • I don’t want to spend my holiday in a home stolen from its rightful owners.

  • I wouldn’t stay here if it was the last place available!

    • About the host, Airbnb

    Last year alone Airbnb made almost $1 billion in revenue, and Airbnb is worth a whopping $24 billion. Yet, Airbnb continues to make a profit from homes located in illegal housing settlements in occupied territory.
