Not on Airbnb? List your home from scratch

How it works

Three steps, and nothing goes live until you say so.

  1. Paste your link

    We read your listing's title, description, amenities, house rules and up to 40 photographs into a draft. Nothing is filed yet — you see everything we found, and anything we couldn't read is named so you know to fill it in.

  2. Show us it's yours

    Anyone can copy a public Airbnb link, so we ask for something only a host or co-host can see: your listing's calendar export link. The same link keeps your booked dates in step between the two sites.

  3. Read it over and submit

    Correct anything we got wrong, set your nightly rate in rupees, and send it. A real person reads every listing and comes to see the place before it goes into search — nothing on Iraava publishes itself.

What comes across

Most of the work, already done.

One thing to check yourself: Airbnb shows prices in the viewer's currency, so make sure the nightly rate on your draft is the rupee figure you mean.

  • Your photographs

    Up to 40, in your order. Untick any you'd rather leave behind. We copy them onto Iraava rather than linking to Airbnb, so they keep working if you change your listing there.

  • Your words

    Title, description and house rules, ready to edit. The rules land at the end of the description, where you can rewrite or remove them.

  • Your amenities

    Brought across as you listed them. In the form you can tick more from Iraava's own list of a hundred, grouped so the right ones are quick to find.

  • Your calendar

    Both directions. We read the nights booked on Airbnb, and give you a link to paste into Airbnb so the nights booked here are blocked there too.

Why list with us

Additive, never a cage.

Questions hosts ask

The honest answers.

Do I have to take my home off Airbnb?

No. Keep it there, keep your reviews, keep your direct bookings. Iraava is one more way for the right guest to find you. The only thing we ask is that the rate you give us stays the lowest publicly bookable rate for your home, so we can keep our promise to travellers.

Could the same night be booked twice?

Connect both directions and that is what the calendar link prevents: Airbnb's bookings block the dates here, and our feed blocks Iraava's bookings on Airbnb. One honest caveat — Airbnb collects imported calendars on its own timetable, usually every few hours, not the instant a booking lands. We re-read your Airbnb calendar before every booking here.

What does it cost?

Nothing to join. You give us your net nightly rate; we add our commission and platform fee and show the guest one nightly price, with GST added at checkout. You see exactly what you earn on every booking.

When am I paid?

Iraava is the merchant of record. We collect from the guest online at booking, deduct our commission along with applicable GST and TDS, and remit your net rate within seven days of checkout.

Does my listing go live straight away?

No. It reaches the team as a draft. A curator reads it and comes to see the place before it goes into search. If it isn't a fit, we'll tell you honestly.

What if the import gets something wrong?

You'll see it before anything is filed. The draft names whatever we couldn't read, and every field stays editable — the import fills the form in, you have the last word.

My link won't import.

Open your listing on airbnb.com or airbnb.co.in in a browser and copy the address from the bar — it has /rooms/ followed by a number. Short share links and custom /h/ names don't carry the listing number, so we can't read them. If it still won't come across, list from scratch; it takes a few minutes.

Already hosting with us?

Know a host we should meet?

Every host on Iraava has a personal invite link in host mode. Send it to someone with a home worth seeing — when they join through it, it shows on your Today page, so we know who to thank.
