Airbnb accommodations can now be searched and compared on NAVER

Users will soon be able to search for and compare Airbnb accommodations abroad alongside hotels and other lodging options on NAVER.
Airbnb said on the 28th that it had launched a service allowing users to search for accommodations at overseas destinations through NAVER's integrated search and check real-time prices and availability.
When users search for a destination and accommodation type together on NAVER, such as "Osaka accommodations," hotels and other lodging options will appear alongside Airbnb accommodations. On NAVER Travel's hotel tab, users can also view only Airbnb accommodations through the newly added "Shared Accommodations" tab.
After selecting an accommodation, users can check photos, amenities, reviews, real-time prices, and availability before moving to Airbnb to make a reservation. The search covers overseas accommodations that meet certain criteria, and properties with high ratings and favorable reviews will also display a "Guest Favorite" badge.
Airbnb has also added a shortcut to the "Quick Access Menu" in Samsung Internet Browser and expanded support for local payment methods, including Kakao Pay and Naver Pay, to make the service more convenient for users in South Korea.
Seo Ga-yeon, general manager of Airbnb Korea, said, "We have improved accessibility so that users in South Korea can conveniently explore and compare overseas accommodations through NAVER, a platform they are familiar with."
