FULL publishes a report on the trend of short-term rentals in Italy from 2017 to 2024: a very hot topic on which we offer the availability of reliable and detailed data.
As is well known, Airbnb is an online platform for temporary rentals that plays an intermediary role between host (those who host) and guest (those who are hosted). In Italy, short-term rental through Airbnb has profoundly influenced not only the tourist offer sector but also, more generally, the residential, social and commercial landscape of many territories, thus becoming the subject of heated public, political and academic debate. Against this backdrop, it seems useful to provide up-to-date data that allow us to understand the phenomenon at different territorial scales as a basis for robust academic reflection, informed public discourse and effective public policies. In this report, we propose a nationwide analysis of the ‘Airbnb phenomenon’, taking into consideration the period 2017-2024. After presenting an overview of demand, supply and performance, the report provides an in-depth look at the different types of hosts (unit managers) active in Italy.
Francesco Chiodelli (DIST) gives an interview to Rai News 24 on the report made available on the FULL website.
