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.

  • How unfair can it be to try to make money out of a place that was stolen form poor individuals that had to try to survive somewhere else ? I would never put my foot down there! Stop this unfair practice

  • You have got to stop accepting listings for homes built on land stolen from their Palestinian rightful owners. You wouldn’t list such properties in the UK, so don’t do it there.

  • Vacation settlements should NOT be built on the rubble of stolen homes, orchards and fields, and displaced communities and families.

  • Very audacious, illegal and inhumane. What kind or organisation would be involved in something like this?? Airbnb – not for me!

  • How dare AirBnB make money from renting out properties which were not only stolen from innocent palestinian people but are in violation of international law!!! I am a regular customer of Air BnB and will refuse to use the site if it continues making money from criminal activities.

  • It is obvious that illegal occupiers of the West Bank should not be able to make money out of their theft.

  • I would never stay in a stolen house.

  • I find it deeply disturbing that AirBnb should deem it acceptable to sponsor rentals in the West Bank. These properties are built on land which is being illegally occupied, contravening UN law.

  • Thanks for the chance to stay at such a wonderful place but having given this some thought, I have decided that I really don’t want to put any money in the pockets of scumbags who are profiting from the suffering of innocent people.

    • 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.
