Guest are not the member with the profile

[Barbara530]

Does anyone have experience accepting as guests  relatives of the member with the profile making the request?  I have someone asking on behalf of his parents who want to book with me for a month.  With out a way to vet the actual guests,  it feels a little more risky.  Any thoughts?

@Barbara530  Third party bookings are against Airbnb's TOS. Tell the guest this and ask them to help their parents set up their own account that they can book under. That said, some hosts have reported here that they have accepted this sort of booking with no issues. If the parents are elderly, they may be intimidated by tech stuff.
