realizes it’s an abandoned villa
Since the website mentioned the host had a one hour response time, Bree figured the rental was still accepting active reservations. Once she registered in the bali villa Bree realized that it was an abandoned property. She made a TikTok video documenting her hosting nightmare. Resembling a haunted mansion, the villa had broken windows, overgrown bushes, and was completely desolate. There was no one at the property. After the video went viral, many TikTok users wondered how Airbnb could still list this property. Bree requested a refund from Airbnb, and the property aggregator removed the Bali villa from the listing.
