Request a refund

Cancellations refund automatically per the listing's policy — and how to flag a problem for review.

When you cancel, the refund follows the listing's cancellation policy — the terms sit above Cancel booking, and the exact dollar amount you're getting back is shown before you confirm — and goes back to your original payment method within 5–10 business days. If the host cancels on you, you're emailed the exact refund amount they chose (full refund is the default). If the host declines your request, your card was never charged, so there's nothing to refund.

Flag a problem for review

If something went wrong on the property — unsafe conditions, misrepresented amenities, a host who didn't show — tell us so we can review the charge, even outside the normal policy.

  1. Open My bookings and select the booking.
  2. Scroll to the bottom and tap Share your feedback.
  3. Describe what happened, include the booking reference shown on the page, and attach photos if you have them — then submit.

You can also email support directly. Approved refunds post to the original payment method within 5–10 business days — see /help/refund-timing.
