Hello I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me figure out if this listing is legit the host has no reviews so am worried
The host is new and the listing is new, so not much to say (yet)
The host has ID verified on his profile.
The listing seems OK, although the information about the accommodation itself is rather basic.
(no additional houserules, no check-out time, no section "sleeping arrangements")
@Blade3 For reasons unknown to me, Dubai is one location that has a wildly disproportionate share of scam listings. So I can't really recommend booking an unreviewed property there. The listing itself is a genuine Airbnb listing, so you'd eventually get a refund if it turned out to be fake, but that could be an arduous and expensive process.
The host looks like a typical social media swindler, but I guess you have a backdoor to DM him if you want to see what his deal is. https://www.instagram.com/jaygushin/?hl=en
Personally, I wouldn't touch this with a 10-foot pole.
No reason in my opinion to suspect this listing is a scam, despite the lower price. The host is likely just trying to get established with his first bookings. Anyway, for a little more reliability you could check out my place in the tower seen out the window of his listing: https://airbnb.com/h/dubai-marina-views
contact the host and chat with him, that should help you out a bit. There's one part of the listing that has some dodgy English, that's the only red flag.
