Dietary restrictions on Airbnb Experiences

This content was created by Airbnb and is consistent with Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) technical standards for food safety.

Churros. Ramen. Ceremonial cacao. Airbnb Experiences have something for every palate. Of course, sometimes you’d rather keep an item off the menu.

Hosts can often find ways to accommodate a variety of dietary restrictions, so everyone gets to enjoy the experience.

  • Let your Host know about any dietary restrictions or preferences you or your co-travelers have before you book. You can always message your Host before submitting your reservation request to ask questions.
  • Make it clear if you have an allergy or dietary restrictions—don’t simply ask your Host if certain ingredients are used or assume the online menu will list all the ingredients. It’s very important that your Host be aware of any allergies or dietary restrictions that your party may have, as it could affect other stages of the experience, such as food preparation and serving. Learn more about how to handle food allergies when attending an Airbnb Experience.
  • Remind your Host when you arrive for the experience about your dietary restrictions or preferences.
