Using search filters

Sometimes you just want to browse. Other times, you know exactly what you want. Search filters are a great way to narrow down your choices when you’re finding a place to stay. If you’re flexible, you can select date ranges and types of places to help target your search.

Start with the basics

For the most accurate results, always begin your search by choosing your:

  • Destination
  • Check-in and checkout dates
  • Total number of guests and pets

Popular filters

By selecting Filters on the search results page, you’ll find popular filters, such as:

  • Type of place: From shared rooms to entire places, learn more about the types of places to stay.
  • Price range: Use the sliding scale to narrow down your search within your price range. Keep in mind that many places to stay are unique, and different attributes may affect the nightly rate.
  • Instant Book: Find places you can book without waiting for Host approval.

You can also use Airbnb Categories to filter by unique listings. Choose from categories like lighthouses, cabins, or boats.

Note: Currently, sorting is not an Airbnb search feature, but you can filter by price to find places that fit a certain price range.
