Why is my listing not showing?

New and edited listings are reviewed before they go public.

For hosts

Every new listing is checked by our team before guests can see it. Until then it shows "⏳ Under review" on your dashboard and does not appear in search.

We usually review within a day, and email you as soon as it is decided — so you do not have to keep checking your dashboard.

Edits can send it back for review

Changing your title, description, photos or house rules puts the listing back in the queue, because those are the things we check. Changing your price, calendar or discounts does not — those take effect immediately.

If a listing is not approved

You will see "Not approved" with the reason on your dashboard, and we email you the same reason. Fix the issue and save — that resubmits it automatically.

We decline listings that have misleading photos or descriptions, are not a real place to stay, or breach our content rules.
