Airbnb launched the biggest change to the platform in a decade including Airbnb Categories – A new way to search that makes it easy to discover millions of homes you never knew existed. Among one of them is the OMG! Category
Creativity comes in all shapes and sizes. Just browse the OMG! Category
Airbnb added 56 new categories that organize homes based on their style, location, or proximity to a travel activity.
What does Airbnb look for to list you in the OMG! category?
1) Originality
A winning design will be more than just different. It should be surprising, one-of-a-kind, and inspire people to reimagine what a home can be.
2) Feasibility
Your entry should be achievable and able to pass building inspections and the like. It will also need to be completed by August 2023.
3) Experience
The interior should be as memorable as the exterior, striking a perfect balance between oddball concept and comfortable home.
4) Sustainability
Think green. Consider using clean energy and recycled materials. Your home should have a big impact on guests and a small one on the planet.
