Airbnb describes more than 80 filtering options for exploring vacation rentals, including amenities such as pools and kitchens and accessibility features such as step-free entry.

Airbnb says guests can quickly find or share reservation details, including information intended to help everyone arrive, get inside, and connect to Wi-Fi. In-app messaging lets guests communicate with hosts, ask questions, and receive booking updates. The listing also describes sharing photos and videos in chat.
