To view your Airbnb reviews, open your profile and tap or click “Reviews,” then switch between “By You” and “About You.”
New hosts and frequent travelers ask this a lot. Reviews sit on your profile, not inside each trip once the 14-day window ends. The good news: finding them is quick on a phone or a computer. This guide shows the exact taps and clicks, what each section means, and quick fixes if something seems missing.
Fast Paths To Your Reviews
There are three reliable routes. Pick the one that matches where you are in the app or website right now.
| Context | Path | What You’ll See |
|---|---|---|
| From Profile | Profile → Reviews → tabs “About You” / “By You” | All feedback tied to your account |
| From Trips (guest) | Trips → pick the past stay → Reviews | What you wrote and what the host shared |
| From Messages (host) | Inbox → select conversation → View review | Your note for the guest plus their note for you |
How To See Airbnb Reviews You Wrote (Desktop & App)
This close match to the search phrase covers the exact taps for both roles. The steps are short and repeatable, so you can do them even during a busy turnover or while boarding a plane.
See Reviews On Mobile
On The Airbnb App (Guest)
- Open the app and sign in.
- Tap your profile photo → Reviews.
- Use About You to read notes from hosts.
- Switch to By You to see what you posted.
Can’t find a past stay in Trips anymore? Head to your profile and use the Reviews tabs instead. That spot keeps everything in one place after the posting window closes.
On The Airbnb App (Host)
- Open the app → tap your profile photo.
- Tap Reviews. The default tab shows notes about you.
- Switch to By You to check what you wrote for each guest.
- Running more than one listing? Use the filters on the Reviews screen to sort by property when available.
Mobile screens change from time to time.

Guest Steps
- Go to the site and log in.
- Click your avatar (top right) → Profile.
- Click Reviews. You’ll see two tabs: About You and By You.
That view gathers every posted note on your account. If you took a group trip, the host’s note appears on the profiles of all confirmed guests who joined that booking.
Host Steps
- Open your account in a browser.
- Avatar → Profile → Reviews.
- Use the tabs to switch between what guests said and the notes you left for them.
You can also jump in from the Inbox: open a past guest thread and look for the review card. That path is handy when you want context from the message history next to the feedback.
What Each Tab Means
About You
This is feedback others posted about your stays or your hosting. Guests see what hosts shared. Hosts see what guests shared. These sit on your public profile once the posting window closes.
By You
This holds the notes you wrote. If you drafted a comment but didn’t press submit, it won’t appear here. Drafts live in the write-a-review flow only until you post them.
Timing Rules That Affect Visibility
There’s a 14-day period after a stay when both sides can post. During that window you’ll see prompts under Trips or Inbox. Once the window closes and both sides post—or the timer expires—reviews move to the profile view. The platform doesn’t approve or edit notes before they go live.
Public, Private, And Replies
Public notes show on the profile and on the listing page after both sides post or the timer runs out. Private feedback lives only in the message thread or in post-stay prompts and won’t show on your profile. Hosts and guests can add a short reply to a posted note, which then sits just below the original text.
Shareable Link To Your Reviews
Want to point someone to your track record? Copy the address of your public profile and send that. The Reviews tab is visible there when you’re signed in; visitors see the same section for public notes tied to your account.
Tips To Read Feedback With Context
Scan The Dates
Ratings can drift as listings evolve. Check recent months first, then skim older notes for patterns.
Look For Specifics
Short, bland comments carry less weight. Concrete details—cleanliness, check-in flow, noise, Wi-Fi speeds—tell you how the stay actually went.
Weigh Outliers
A single harsh comment among dozens of strong notes can reflect a mismatch in expectations. Read the host or guest reply when present.
Why A Review Might Seem Missing
Most “missing” cases have simple causes. Work through this quick list.
| Issue | Likely Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Can’t see what I wrote | Draft never submitted | Open Reviews → By You. If it isn’t there, write it again if the 14-day window is still open |
| See a prompt but no text | Only one side posted so far | Wait for the other party or the timer to end; then the note appears on profile |
| Group trip confusion | Host’s note is tied to the whole party | All confirmed guests share that note on their profiles |
| Nothing on the app | UI change after an update | Use the desktop route: Profile → Reviews |
Make Reviews Easier To Read
Filter And Sort
When filters are available, sort by most recent. Hosts can also filter by listing in some regions. This speeds up checks during turnover days.
Compare Rating Trends
Don’t stop at the overall score. Scan category ratings like cleanliness, accuracy, and value. A steady dip in one area points to a fix worth doing today.
Reply With Care
Short, calm replies build trust with the next reader. Acknowledge the point, state what changed, and skip any back-and-forth tone.
Multi-Listing Hosts: Read Smarter
If you run several places, batch your review checks. Sort by newest and scan for repeats across listings—late check-ins, tricky lockboxes, or missing kitchen basics. Copy any recurring fix into a single to-do list and set one repair run. That saves time and keeps ratings steady across the board.
Guests: Use Reviews To Plan Better Stays
Before booking, read the most recent ten notes and scan the host replies. A host who answers with calm, specific fixes tends to manage stays well. During the trip, keep a small notes file so you can post a clear, fair comment after checkout. Clear detail helps the next traveler and helps hosts improve.
Privacy And Moderation Notes
Reviews are posted by users, not edited by staff before they appear. The company may remove content that breaks policy, but routine posts go live as written once the posting window ends. Keep your replies clean and factual, and avoid sharing private contact info in review text.
Where This Info Comes From
Airbnb’s Help Center outlines the paths above and the 14-day posting period. You’ll find the official steps on the Find your reviews as a guest or host page and more detail on profile-level visibility on the Reviews for homes page.
A Simple Review Reading Routine
Once a week, open your profile, switch to About You, and scan the last ten notes. Flag anything actionable, like a wobbly chair or a confusing lockbox line. Then switch to By You and keep your tone steady and fair.
Next Steps
Open your profile now and head to Reviews. Spend five minutes with the latest notes. Small tweaks from clear patterns can lift guest happiness and take stress out of trip planning. If you’re new to hosting, calendar a monthly ten-minute pass through reviews and ratings so small fixes never pile up and guest messages stay calm and short.
