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.

  • I’ve been an airbnb customer for a few years and usually love the places I have stayed. This is the first time I won’t consider a listing. Now, if staying in a place that practices the Israeli equivalent of modern day apartheid gets your juices flowing, then renting a place in the occupied territories is OK. It’s certainly not consistent with my values. I don’t support apartheid-like government practices, no matter the name they go by, and won’t do business with people who have illegally built in occupied territories. Furthermore, now that I know airbnb is allowing illegal settlement listings, I’ll be looking for other places to rent my ‘home away from home’ the next time I travel.

  • Air B&B needs to remove these listings that legitimize Israeli occupation of stolen land and deliver massive profits off the back of the Palestinian people.

  • This rental violates international laws and ethics. I think it’s despicable.

  • I am withdrawing from AirnBnb until it withdraws support for apartheid and extrajudicial killings in Palestine.

  • i am very sad that you would profit from someone else’s loss.
    This house is not yours to rent out – remove it from the listings before someone decides to retaliate.

  • Genocide.. See it here. It will change your life. Hopefully make you human again.

  • Have some social, political, moral, ethical, common, decent responsibility…and choose not to holiday on illegal land

  • I just wish everyone in the world could learn to stop acting like children and get along. I understand that Jewish people need a place to be safe after thousands of years of repression and anti-semitism. However, if I were a member of a historically persecuted group I would make damn sure that I was better than all those other jerks. Israel in many ways is no better than the oppressors of Jews throughout the ages.

  • Absolutely appalled by the lack of humanity shown by such a well known company. I urge Airbnb to immediately halt any further construction of illegal settlements and to return the land to whom it rightfully belongs- the Palestinians.

    • 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.
