Peer-to-peer hospitality
Peer-to-peer hospitality refers to a system where individuals rent out their personal properties, such as homes or private rooms, to travelers through online platforms. Instead of traditional hotels, guests connect directly with hosts, often at competitive prices and with unique, personalized experiences. This model leverages trust and community, allowing hosts to monetize unused space and providing travelers with more diverse lodging options. Platforms like Airbnb facilitate this exchange, ensuring safety, payment security, and verified reviews, thereby creating a decentralized, community-driven hospitality network.
