In January, Airbnb released a list of the most wish-listed new global listings of 2023.
Each of the 13 listings achieved “Most Wanted-Listed” status after being listed for just 10 weeks and may have had some help from several new ways the site categorizes listings — such as “trending” and ” Top of the World”. Airbnb introduced. That new feature in November 2022.
The 13 locations span six countries and four continents, and range from a tiny house to a guesthouse on a working family farm.
