You can welcome even more people to your place by adding accessibility features—many guests search listings for specific requirements. Find out how to make your place more accessible.
Learn more about belonging and inclusion at Airbnb in our Accessibility Policy.
First, make sure your listing is published. Then you can edit your listing by room and highlight each accessibility feature with at least one clear photo. Check out our guide to photographing accessibility features.
Once your features are confirmed against our photo guidelines, they’ll be shown on your listing’s Accessibility features section.
If you're connected to Airbnb via a channel manager or property management software on full sync, you'll need to update your accessibility amenities via your API software. Contact your API software provider to ask them about their timeline to release the Accessibility API feature so you can add your amenities.
