How to Scrape Airbnb Data: Pricing, Ratings, Amenities (Code & No code)

Introduction

Airbnb is an online marketplace that connects people who want to rent out their homes with people who are looking for accommodations in specific locales.

In this article, you will read about the easiest way to scrape Airbnb listings with Page2API.

You will find code examples for Ruby, Python, PHP, NodeJS, cURL, and a No-Code solution that will import Airbnb listings into Google Sheets.

You can scrape Airbnb data, with such information as amenities, prices, descriptions, photos, URLs to perform:

price monitoring
trends analysis
competitor analysis
or simply to find the perfect vacation spot

In this article, we will learn how to:

Prerequisites

To start scraping Airbnb, you will need the following things:

A Page2API account
A location, in which we want to search for listings, let's use for example Amsterdam, Netherlands

How to scrape Airbnb listings

First, we need to open the Airbnb search page with the desired location.

In our case it will be:

  
    https://www.airbnb.com/s/Amsterdam--Netherlands/homes

This URL is the first parameter we need to start scraping the listings page.

The page we see must look similar to the following one:

From the search page, we will scrape the following attributes:

URL
Title
Name
Beds
Rating
Price

Each listing container is wrapped in a div element with the following attribute: itemprop="itemListElement".

Now, let's define the selectors for each attribute.

  
    /* Parent: */
    [itemprop=itemListElement]

    /* URL: */
    a[target*='listing_']

    /* Title: */
    [id*='title']

    /* Name: */
    [itemprop=name]

    /* Beds: */
    [aria-label*='bed']

    /* Rating: */
    [aria-label*='Rating']

    /* Price: */
    [style*='--pricing'] > div > span > div > span

Now, let's handle the pagination.

If we take a look at the URL structure when switching between pages, we see that they look like this:

  
    // Page 1
    https://www.airbnb.com/s/Amsterdam--Netherlands/homes?pagination_search=true&items_offset=0

    // Page 2
    https://www.airbnb.com/s/Amsterdam--Netherlands/homes?pagination_search=true&items_offset=20

    // Page 3
    https://www.airbnb.com/s/Amsterdam--Netherlands/homes?pagination_search=true&items_offset=40

This looks like a great scenario to use the batch scraping approach.

Now let's build the request that will scrape all listings that the search page returned.

The following examples will show how to scrape 3 pages of listings from Airbnb.com

The payload for our scraping request will be:

  
    {
      "api_key": "YOUR_PAGE2API_KEY",
      "batch": {
        "urls": "https://www.airbnb.com/s/Amsterdam--Netherlands/homes?pagination_search=true&items_offset=[0, 40, 20]",
        "concurrency": 1,
        "merge_results": true
      },
      "parse": {
        "listings": [
          {
            "url": "a[target*='listing_'] >> href",
            "beds": "[aria-label*='bed'] >> text",
            "name": "[itemprop=name] >> content",
            "price": "[style*='--pricing'] > div > span > div > span >> text",

            "_parent": "[itemprop=itemListElement]"
          }
        ]
      },
      "wait_for": "[itemprop=itemListElement]",
      "real_browser": true,
      "premium_proxy": "us"

How to scrape Airbnb listing details

From the 'Search' page, we click on any listing.

This will change the browser URL to something similar to:

  
    https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/3163509

The page will look like the following one:

From this page, we will scrape the following attributes:

Title
Superhost
Guests
Bedrooms
Beds
Baths
Reviews
Rating
Price
Description
Amenities
Images

Let's define the selectors for each attribute.

  
    /* Title: */
    .ds-summary-row span

    /* Superhost: */
    //span[contains(text(),'Superhost')]

    /* Guests: */
    //span[contains(text(),'guests')]

    /* Bedrooms: */
    //span[contains(text(),'bedrooms')]

    /* Beds: */
    //span[contains(text(),'beds')]

    /* Baths: */
    //span[contains(text(),'baths')]

    /* Price: */
    [style*='--pricing'] > div > span > div > span


    /* Description: */
    [data-plugin-in-point-id=DESCRIPTION_DEFAULT]

    /* Images: */
    picture img

    /* Reviews / Rating */
    // we will encode it to base64 later
    var ratingObject = document.querySelector("[aria-label*='Rated']").attributes['aria-label'].nodeValue.match(/Rated (?[\d?\.]+).+ from\s(?[\d]+)/).groups;

    // reviews js selector
    ratingObject['reviews']

    // rating js selector
    ratingObject['rating']

    /* Amenities */
    document.querySelector('[data-section-id=AMENITIES_DEFAULT] section button').click()

    // amenities js selector
    var amnts = [];
    document.querySelectorAll(\"[id*='pdp_v3'][aria-disabled='false']\").forEach(e => amnts.push(e.innerText));
    amnts;

How to export Airbnb listings to Google Sheets

In order to be able to export our Airbnb listings to a Google Spreadsheet we will need to slightly modify our request to receive the data in CSV format instead of JSON.

According to the documentation, we need to add the following parameters to our payload:

  
    "raw": {
      "key": "listings", "format": "csv"
    }

Now our payload will look like:

{ "api_key": "YOUR_PAGE2API_KEY", "batch": { "urls": [ "https://www.airbnb.com/s/Amsterdam--Netherlands/homes?pagination_search=true&items_offset=0", "https://www.airbnb.com/s/Amsterdam--Netherlands/homes?pagination_search=true&items_offset=20", "https://www.airbnb.com/s/Amsterdam--Netherlands/homes?pagination_search=true&items_offset=40" ], "concurrency": 1, "merge_results": true }, "raw": { "key": "listings", "format": "csv" }, "parse": { "listings": [ { "url": "a[target*='listing_'] >> href", "beds": "[aria-label*='bed'] >> text", "name": "[itemprop=name] >> content", "price": "[style*='--pricing'] > div > span > div > span >> text", "title": "[id*='title'] >> text", "rating": "[aria-label*='Rating'] >> text", "_parent": "[itemprop=itemListElement]" } ] }, "wait_for": "[itemprop=itemListElement]", "real_browser": true, "premium_proxy": "us" }

Now, edit the payload above if needed, and press Encode →

Encode

The URL with encoded payload will be:

  Press 'Encode'

Note: If you are reading this article being logged in - you can copy the link above since it will already have your api_key in the encoded payload.

The final part is adding the IMPORTDATA function, and we are ready to import our Airbnb listings into a Google Spreadsheet.

  Press 'Encode'

The result must look like the following one:
