Airbnb Search Scraper

What does Airbnb Search Scraper do?

Airbnb Search Scraper searches Airbnb homes by destination and filters — dates, guests, price range, bedrooms/beds/bathrooms, room type, amenities, Instant Book, Guest favourites — and pushes every listing to the dataset, paginating automatically until it runs out of results or hits your maxPages/maxItems limit.

It talks directly to the same internal API the official Airbnb Android app uses (api.airbnb.com), reverse-engineered by live MITM capture against a real device — a real Apollo-style GraphQL persisted query the app itself sends (exact query hash captured live, never guessed). No Airbnb account, no API key, no scraping setup. This is the search slice of Airbnb All-in-One API, split out as its own focused Actor.

Why use Airbnb Search Scraper?

• Real, server-computed pricing in any currency — pass currency: "IDR" (or any ISO code) and get genuine localized prices from Airbnb's own server, not a client-side conversion
• Real filters — price range, bedrooms/beds/bathrooms, room type, amenities, Instant Book, Guest favourite, host language — the same filter chips the app's own search screen uses
• Automatic pagination — Airbnb's own pagination quietly switches from GET to POST after page 1 (real gotcha, handled for you)
• Global — not tied to one country's data
• No account needed — every read request works fully anonymously
• Use cases: travel search products, price-comparison tools, market research, lead generation

Input

Field	Type	Description
query	string	Free-text destination, e.g. Bali, Indonesia. Required unless placeId is set.
placeId	string	Exact Airbnb place id (from an autosuggest lookup) — more precise than query.
checkin / checkout	string (date)	YYYY-MM-DD
adults / children / infants	integer	Guest counts (default adults: 1)
priceMin / priceMax	integer	Total trip price range, in whole units of currency
bedrooms / beds / bathrooms	integer	Minimum counts ("at least this many")
roomType	string	Entire home/apt | Private room — the real strings the app sends
amenities	integer[]	Airbnb amenity ids. Only 4 (Wifi) and 7 (Pool) confirmed by hand — any other real id also works
allowsPets	boolean	"Allows pets" filter chip — not a pet count
instantBook	boolean	Only Instant Book listings
guestFavorite	boolean	Only "Guest favourite" listings
hostLanguages	string[]	ISO-ish 2-letter host language codes, e.g. ["en"]
currency	string	ISO code, default USD
maxPages	integer	Stop after this many result pages (~8 listings/page). Default 10.
maxItems	integer	Stop once this many listings have been pushed. Default: unbounded (bounded by maxPages instead).

Example:

{
    "query": "Bali, Indonesia",
    "checkin": "2026-09-01",
    "checkout": "2026-09-05",
    "adults": 2,
    "priceMax": 3000000,
    "currency": "IDR",
    "maxPages": 5
}

Output

One dataset row per listing, Airbnb's own searchResults item shape (trimmed example):

{
    "title": "Villa in Tegalalang",
    "avgRatingA11yLabel": "New place to stay",
    "demandStayListing": { "id": "RGVtYW5kU3RheUxpc3Rpbmc6MTc0OTY2OTEzMTQ5MDM3NTU0Ng==" }
}

Known limitations

• No destination autosuggest endpoint here — pass a plain-text query (Airbnb resolves it server-side) or supply a placeId you already have. For a dedicated autocomplete lookup, use Airbnb All-in-One API's /autosuggest.
• Listing detail, reviews, availability, host profiles, Experiences, and Services are separate spin-off Actors — this one is search-only.

Pricing

Pay-per-event: $0.0020 per listing result pushed to the dataset (FREE plan price — BRONZE/SILVER/GOLD/PLATINUM/DIAMOND get automatic discounts based on your Apify plan). See the Actor's Pricing tab for current rates.
