Hi @Ruth1489 

 

Keep in mind that after you publish your listing, it may not show in guest search results for up to 72hours. Also, you have chosen the "Experienced Guest Only" option when creating your listing. Any friends or family without at least 3 prior Airbnb trips on their profile will not be able to see your listing in the normal search results until you get your first reservation:

Hi @Ruth1489 

Your listing seems to be live. You can search for it yourself if you go to your profile and switch to Travelling. Put in dates that you know are available (be sure that you don't search without dates) and zoom in on the map really close on the area near your listing. It may not be in the exact spot, but somewhere nearby.
