Where your profile information may appear

Host profiles are shown in full on their listing(s), with some information appearing in search results, while a limited version of guest profiles are shown to hosts when requesting to book, and is then shown in full after a reservation is made.

Host profiles can be accessed on your listing

Guests may see information from your profile, or a preview of your full profile directly on your listing. They can always check out your full host profile by clicking or tapping on the primary profile picture displayed on your listing.

Profile info for hosts of private rooms may appear in several places

  • Profile previews in search: We may include a preview of your host profile in search results, when guests are searching for a Room on Airbnb.
  • Occupation highlights in search: The occupation you include on your profile may show in search alongside your listing. You can update this info.
  • Listing page: We may also show a preview of your profile on your listing page.

Guests profiles are shared with hosts when they request to book

A limited version of your profile is shown to a host if you request to book a stay. In this case, before booking, we hide your profile photo, but show your first name and reviews. We also may show other details from your profile, like past trips represented as travel stamps, and optional info such as the location you’re based in, the languages you speak, and your interests. After you book, a host can see your full profile. See full details of what information is shared on your profile.

Reviews include a link to the writer’s profile

Anyone can visit a host or guest’s full profile from any review.

Guests profiles are shared with other guests in a travel group or experience

When you invite other people to join your travel group on a reservation, they can see your profile, and the profile of other people who accept the invitation to join. In addition, when you book an experience or join someone else’s reservation, other people going on the experience can see your profile, too.

Keep your profile current

It’s always a good idea to make sure your profile is up-to-date with info you’re comfortable sharing. For hosts of Rooms, updating your profile also helps with keeping your Host Passport fresh.
