When users search for keywords that combine a travel destination and accommodation type on Naver, Airbnb listings will be displayed alongside hotels and other lodging options. By clicking "See More," users are directed to the hotel tab in Naver Travel, where they can view Airbnb accommodations. They can also select the newly introduced "Shared Lodging" tab to exclusively browse Airbnb listings.


By selecting a desired property from the search results, users can check detailed information including photos, amenities, and reviews, as well as real-time rates and availability. They can then proceed to Airbnb to complete their reservation.


Airbnb stated that the listings displayed through the Naver search integration will consist of overseas accommodations that meet certain criteria, such as high guest ratings.



Kayoun Seo, Country Manager of Airbnb Korea, said, "We have enhanced accessibility, making it more convenient for Korean users to explore and compare Airbnb's overseas accommodations through Naver, which is familiar to them when planning international travel and searching for lodging. We will continue to monitor Korean travelers’ preferences and booking habits to ensure that Airbnb can be found wherever travelers are searching."
