Description

Overview:

Through fees earned from settlement vacation rentals, you will also help Airbnb profit from the continuing occupation and dispossession of Palestinians.

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.

  • I think this new ‘location’ of airbnb stinks.

  • That any one would even want to stay in stolen property, goes beyond my moral compass, but to have the guts to even list it as a valid Air BnB listing, now that should go beyond any one’s moral compass, including those in charge of the company.

  • Have been using airbnb for 4 years and 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.”

  • It’s so unfair and unacceptable. I cannot believe how AirBnb accepted it.

  • I find it disgusting that you would accept a posting for stolen homes by illegal settlers in Palestine!!!

  • This is most unfortunate and violative of international law.

  • When I looked at the price I was astounded that I had to pay to stay here. I mean, I thought the whole way the West Bank operated was to march in, kick out the previous owners, and live there without paying a cent – in fact, with incentives to do so.

    So when the owners had the gall to try and charge me money to stay in a place they don’t even own, I was not impressed.

    If I choose to stay there again, I will bring a bulldozer.

    • 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.
