Νights spent in short-stay accommodation booked via online platforms such as Airbnb, Booking, Expedia, and Tripadvisor within the EU from 2018 to 2024 (ANNUAL)

Nights booked via platforms grew from 442M to 854M
That’s a 93% increase in six years, despite a historic collapse in 2020

Platforms are now central to EU tourism

Europe has become the largest short-term rental (STR) market globally

Number of entire property Airbnb listings per square kilometre, per NUTS3 regions in the EU-27, 2025

STRs predominantly involve entire property listings, accounting for an estimated 89% of all offerings

Entire property vs part of a property

Dwellings which are permanently used as a STR and were used as primary residence prior reduce housing supply
STRs of part of a property are less likely to have an impact on the housing supply
