Airbnb has a new label to denote its top (and worst) listings


Airbnb said today that it is adding a new label to indicate the top 25% and top 1% properties on the listing page.

The new top property badge, which relies on metrics like subcategory ratings, review sentiment, host cancellations, and quality-related customer service issues, is part of this rollout. In September 2023, Airbnb said that the company would verify all properties in its top five markets — the U.S., Canada, Australia, the U.K., and France — to weed out fake listings. Airbnb said today that nearly 1.5 million properties would be verified by the end of this month in these five markets with a verification badge shown next to the listings.
