How Airbnb checkout works
Wondering what to do when your stay is over? There are a few different ways to find the checkout instructions from your Host.
Find your checkout instructions on Airbnb
If your Host added checkout instructions to the listing, you can find them with your reservation info. Here's how:
- Go to Trips and select your reservation
- Scroll to Rules and instructions and click Show more
- Find the checkout instructions from your Host under Before your leave
- Tap Trips and select your reservation
- Go to Checking in & out to find the checkout instructions from your Host
- Once you’ve checked out, you can select Let your Host know you left
- Tap Trips and select your reservation
- Go to Checking in & out to find the checkout instructions from your Host
- Once you’ve checked out, you can select Let your Host know you left
- Go to Trips and select your reservation
- Scroll to Rules and instructions and tap Show more
- Find the checkout instructions from your Host under Before your leave
Note: You need to have the Airbnb app downloaded and push notifications enabled to receive a reminder notification with your checkout time and instructions the day before checkout.
Other ways to find checkout instructions
The best way to confirm the checkout instructions is to ask your Host before the end of your stay. They might message you with the details, or they might even have written instructions at their place.
If you’d like to request a late checkout
If you'd like to check out later, try reaching out to your Host in advance to find out if they can accommodate your request. Learn more about requesting a late checkout.
After you've checked out
It’s always a good idea to send your Host a message to let them know once you’ve completed checkout.
