Airbnb has announced a major update for summer. With new products Airbnb Services, Airbnb Experiences, and a newly redesigned Airbnb app, users can now go beyond booking a home and integrate their entire travel experience into one place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSeventeen years ago, we changed the way people booked accommodation, and now we\u2019re doing more than that,\u201d said Brian Chesky, Airbnb co-founder and CEO. \u201cNow, Airbnb allows people to experience more.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The newly introduced 'Airbnb Services' is designed to provide a variety of premium services that you would expect from a hotel, directly from your Airbnb accommodation or home. The initial launch includes 10 categories, including chef, massage, makeup, nail, spa, and personal training, and is available across 260 cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our service hosts have an average of over 10 years of experience and undergo a rigorous screening process based on their certified qualifications and expertise. They include top professionals in their fields, including Michelin star chefs, award-winning photographers, and world champion trainers. Some services start at $50 or less, so there are options to suit a variety of budgets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

'Airbnb Experiences' is a customized program for travelers who want to experience the real side of a city. It is offered in 650 cities, and locals host and conduct experiences on various topics such as cultural heritage, food, nature, art, and sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, it includes exclusive content such as a tour with the architect who restored Notre Dame Cathedral, making ramen with a Michelin chef, and a shopping tour with a Hollywood stylist. There is also a new category called 'Airbnb Originals' that allows you to experience special experiences with global celebrities. Celebrities such as Megan Thee Stallion, Sabrina Carpenter, and NFL star Patrick Mahomes will participate as hosts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting in the second half of this year, features will be added to the app that will allow you to check with your companions before participating, exchange messages during the experience, and communicate afterwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hosts also get enhanced features, including a new list creation tool for listing services and experiences, a real-time booking management calendar, and Google Calendar integration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Airbnb Services, Airbnb Experiences, and the new Airbnb app are rolling out sequentially in major cities around the world starting today, and host registration is also available through the official website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
