AirBnb Cracking Down On Las Vegas NYE Parties
Everyone knows that Las Vegas is one of the most popular go-to places for New Year’s Eve. So it stands to reason the party options would be plentiful. But when you’re a tourist without property in the city, your options for throwing a party are limited. You can’t really go crazy in a hotel without alerting the neighbors and staff.
So what is a tourist to do when they want to host a huge party? Well, in years past Airbnb properties have been a very popular option. Not anymore. AirBnb has announced they’re going to throw down some very strict guidelines to prevent unauthorized parties in someone else’s home.
AirBnb is trusted by homeowners to look out for their properties. And coming home to a trashed house because someone didn’t treat your home like their own…well, that sucks. And I imagine it has hurt the company as a whole if they’re losing clients because of it.
To prevent homeowners having to start 2023 off on the wrong foot, AirBnb is going to extend the same guidelines for booking that they have since 2020. The company announced it will ban some one-night bookings for New Year’s Eve, specifically on rentals for entire homes. They will allow those bookings from accounts with a positive rental history. But will not allow it for accounts without positive ratings or with no history at all.
This measure is not just being taken in Las Vegas, but throughout the country with AirBnb. In a statement with 13 Action News, the company stated “We continue to draw a hard line on disruptive parties and emphasize safe and responsible travel during a weekend where we know some may be more inclined to try to throw an unauthorized party.”
AirBnb estimates that, since 2020, they have helped lower the rate of party incidents around the globe by 56 percent with these guidelines. Thanks, AirBnb! We appreciate you looking out for our home owners in Las Vegas!

5 Coolest Airbnbs In Las Vegas
If you’re a Las Vegas veteran then you know that The Strip has some of the fanciest hotel rooms in the world. But hidden in the outskirts of the shiny Strip are some of the coolest Airbnbs in Las Vegas
From mid-century modern, classic casino style and even over-the-top tacky, these Airbnbs are for the Vegas traveler who want to see a different side of Sin City.
If you’re planning a Vegas trip soon, and you’ve tried the hotels before then we recommend to give an interesting Airbnb a shot! Grab a group of your friends and go big on a nice Airbnb that will make you feel like you’re on a resort. This list is also for Las Vegas locals who are looking for a staycation away from their everyday scenery.
But, if you plan to stay at one of these Airbnbs, we want to make something clear. Don’t expect to throw a raging party with people from wall to wall. Recently, the connection between Las Vegas and Airbnb made news in the past year when the company proposed a global ban on all parties. When this rule was implemented, Airbnb said reports of parties decreased by 77% in Las Vegas alone, according to Channel 8.
In fact, Clark County took extra measures to enforce this rule. There’s a 24-hour phone number to report issues to the county and code enforcement officers to investigate these “party complaints.”
So, it’s safe to say that renting an Airbnb in Las Vegas doesn’t mean you’re turning the property into a “Project X” part two movie anytime soon. But despite this little rule, staying at an Airbnb is an experience that exceeds that glitz, glamour and grandeur of The Strip.
Below are some of the coolest Airbnbs in Las Vegas that will give you a different trip that isn’t regular. See the fun list below of these cute, fun and amazing properties.
