Can a Airbnb review be removed?

Yes — but only reviews that violate Airbnb's published content policy. Honest opinions from real customers generally stay up. Our process identifies the specific policy category, documents the evidence, and submits the report through the correct Airbnb channel.

What if Airbnb denies the removal request?

First-pass denials are common. We appeal with additional evidence or a corrected policy citation, and — where the platform offers one — escalate through the official support channel.

How much does Airbnb review removal cost?

Pay $497 upfront per item, or choose Pay upon removal for $547 per item with $0 due today. Pay upfront. If the specific item is not removed within 90 days of payment, we refund the removal fee to your original payment method. No claim or form needed. We review and issue it within 5 business days. Complex cases involving defamation, legal escalation, coordinated attacks, or many items across platforms are quoted individually through the Custom Care Plan, with their own timeline.

Airbnb Review Removal

Airbnb review removal

Submit an Airbnb review removal request when a review violates Airbnb's Reviews Policy — including retaliatory, biased, or irrelevant reviews.

Airbnb's content policy

Airbnb publishes its content policy at https://www.airbnb.com/help/article/2673. Reviews that fall inside a policy category can be reported and, with the right evidence, removed. Reviews that comply with the policy stay up — no service can force Airbnb to remove policy-compliant content.

Airbnb review removal eligibility

May qualify for removal

Reviews with irrelevant content (political, discriminatory, unrelated events)

Reviews containing private information
Biased reviews with clear conflict of interest
Reviews violating the Discrimination Policy

Generally does NOT qualify

Honest opinion about the stay, host, or space
Complaints about the listing that reflect the guest's actual experience

Eligibility depends on platform policies, evidence, authenticity, conflicts of interest, prohibited content, and other applicable violations. This list is illustrative — every review is analyzed individually.
