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.

  • Reading about this airbnb listing has made me think twice about using the service in the future. This listing is immoral.

  • How is this any different from any subdevelopment in the US, Canada, Australia, etc.? All founded in genocide of 1st Nations people.

  • I’ll swap your for a week in a caravan I stole from my neighbours, still parked on their drive

  • This is the first listing that I am giving a 0/5. It violates international law and basic human rights! I would never rent a home built on land that was illegally stolen from Palestinians. Please stop listing properties in Israel’s occupied West Bank.

  • Stop this! Being a thief is not right. If you are not a pure Robin Hood. Buying from a thief is not right either…

  • I have stayed in more than a dozen airbnb rentals in 8 countries and given nothing but good reviews. Today I am disappointed to find that AirBnB’s greed is leading them to profit from illegal settlements in the West Bank. It is time to respect human rights and international law and stop profiting from human suffering in this way.

  • I demand that Airbnb stop listing vacation rentals located in illegal West Bank settlements.

  • I just retired and am starting to use airbnb. I was disappointed and very, very mad but to hear that it is profiting off of the rubble of demolished Palestinian homes. You have to stop listing properties in Israel’s occupation West Bank!!

  • I’m sorry but I must withdraw my request to use your accommodation. I would not feel at ease in a property on illegally held land.

    • 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.
