Airbnb launches new services ahead of summer travel season
May 15, 2025
Airbnb is taking on hotels… again. The vacation rental platform is redesigning its app and expanding its offerings with the launch of Airbnb Services and Airbnb Experiences, letting users go beyond booking a room or home stay and choose from a variety of amenities, similar to what hotel chains and cruises offer to guests.
With Airbnb Services, users can book services in 10 categories: catering, chefs, hair, makeup, massage, nails, personal training, photography, prepared meals and spa treatments. Users aren’t required to stay in an Airbnb or be on a trip to access services.
The new feature is launching in 260 cities globally. yahoo!
