Here is the current situation as far as Airbnb are concerned and Covid-19.
Either host or guest can cancel a reservation, the guest will be fully refunded and the host won't be penalised for a cancellation on their side, and just have to suck up the loss of a booking. Their booking calendar will be opened again to possibly accept yet another reservation which may in many circumstances be subject to yet another cancellation!
Realistically I would not have expected any other option....Airbnb have a proven track record of making sure their hosts are at the disadvantaged end of the STR spectrum.
Trust me Kathleen, there is nothing for the host in this, do not expect any sort of payout on your end for a reservation cancellation!
