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.

It’s Immoral,and illegal . AirBnB shouln’t advertise properties that colonists from Israel have stolen from their palestinian neighbours
Stop making vacation settlements on stolen land!
A beautiful country but a home here should belong to other people
This land looks like the land my parents lived on were driven from it. Sad to see that it is occuppied by strangers. When i view it, my eyes water, i feel empty and a bitter taste in my mouth. I am a Palestinian Catholic and it is shameful that our land was stolen and now turned for profit while we have no place to call home. Today my home is in the USA. I feel safer here. Please help the rest of my people who remain by boycotting these practices.
Utter shame!
Right on! Keep at ‘em til the wall falls!
For a people who claim to be persecuted throughout history they show absolutely no empathy for others.
Bad view, bad vision, poor future.
This is a terrible practice and I am shocked that a company which seeks to provide ‘homely’ stays for travelers would violate human rights and international law in such a way.
