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.

Shameful.
I will definitely not stay in a stolen property build by the palestinian people.This wen site needs to honor that. .
Stolen land should be returned to its rightful owners, and not used for air BnB accommodation. No one with a conscience would support this by staying on stolen land.
“I have just started to look at using airbnb, after recommendations by a friend. I was disappointed to hear that it is profiting off of the rubble of demolished Palestinian homes. Please stop listing properties in Israel’s occupied West Bank.” Until this happens I will use other accommodation, that doesn’t involve denigrating someone’s rights and profiting from the results of war.
a dollar made off the inhumane suffering of others, is not a dollar worth making
I would never stay on the illegally stolen land of Palestinians by Israeli armed forces – now been rented out to fill the pockets of Airbnb.
Greed does not make happy homes living in peace & sharing does. Stop the thiefed of land now.
I am very disappointed that Airbnb have endorsed this listing. It should be removed from listing as well as all other such premises that benefit from the exploitation and repression of the original occupants…who are now homeless. Also as a host I feel very uncomfortable about my ‘stake’ in this business. Please act NOW to stop this inhuman profiteering. Thank you.
What a pity that homes and land are available for tourists but not for the rightful inhabitants of Palestine. Anyone who funds or profits from the occupation of Palestine is an oppressor. Shame, AirBnB, shame.
Absolutely Disgusting.
