Get inspired with Luffy’s favourite Airbnb Stays this International Dog Day!
Since Airbnb started in 2008, Hosts all around the world have welcomed thousands of guests and their fur babies. As the pandemic pet boom continues, many are increasingly interested in traveling to places that allow them to bring their pets along, with ample space and access to the outdoors. In fact, Airbnb searches made with the ‘allows pets’ filter increased 65 percent this year compared to the same time period last year[1].
To inspire fur moms and dads planning to bring their babies on their next getaways, Airbnb asked the happiest dog on the Internet – adorable shih tzu Luffy – to share his wishlist of pawfect Stays in the Philippines. Luffy went viral this year when his owner Sarah Jayne Balbidadez posted a quick clip of his huge grin when she picked him up from a dog grooming parlour in Imus, and has since amassed a massive following of 1.5 million followers of TikTok.
Sarah shares, “I love traveling and exploring new places with Luffy, it makes my travel experiences so much more memorable when I get to share it with my best friend. With the plethora of pet-friendly stays offered by Airbnb Hosts, fur parents like myself and their babies can go on many more meaningful adventures together.”
Here are Luffy’s top Airbnb Stays for a pet-friendly getaway. Pet lovers seeking a unique vacation will also be thrilled to find that Luffy has included a few special stays where you’ll be welcomed by your Host – plus their dogs!
