Airbnb has unveiled a major expansion and a redesigned app at its 2025 Summer Release event in Los Angeles.
The company introduced Airbnb Services and revamped Airbnb Experiences, offering services like chefs, photography, and massages in addition to home bookings.
Services hosts have extensive experience and are thoroughly vetted by Airbnb.
The revamped Experiences connect users with local guides in 650 cities worldwide across nineteen diverse categories.
Airbnb Originals, like pastry-making in France or beach volleyball with Olympians, are exclusive experiences offered by Airbnb.
Experiences will feature a social element later this year, allowing users to connect with others attending the same activities.
The new app integrates stays, Services, and Experiences seamlessly, providing a simple and organized trip-planning experience.
Airbnb's updated app is a natural extension of its unique travel offerings, focusing on enhancing every aspect of a traveler's journey.
The added functionalities of Services, Experiences, and Airbnb Originals create a more comprehensive travel experience for users.
The redesigned app aims to streamline trip planning, offering users a consolidated platform for all their travel needs.
