“Pacific Islanders are naturally amazing hosts, and we’re seeing the emergence of a new type of traveller who is looking for a different holiday experience – travellers that may have not considered the Pacific Islands before,” Mr Morris said. Through Airbnb, Pacific Island families will have an avenue to take advantage of these new travellers and generate extra income from a spare room or fale they may have. The system behind Airbnb for hosts is simple and accessible to many Pacific Islanders as you just need access to a mobile phone.”
