Hey everyone, I never imagined I’d be writing a post like this, but after what I’ve been through with AirDXB, I felt it was necessary to speak up. If you’re a landlord or property owner in Dubai—or considering working with them—this is something you need to read. I set up this blog because I was one of the many people who got caught in their web. And believe me, once you’re in, it’s not easy to get out. After facing threats and legal warnings just for trying to speak the truth, I realized I had to create a space where other property owners could share their experiences too—without fear.
Let’s be honest: AirDXB spends a lot of money on their online image. The internet is flooded with glowing reviews that look too polished to be true. But if you dig deeper, you’ll find a darker side that keeps getting buried—literally. Many negative reviews vanish within days, and the people behind them often receive legal threats forcing them to take the posts down. It’s intimidating and honestly feels like a game of corporate bullying.
I’ve gathered real stories from real people from Reddit.com who’ve worked with AirDXB, and let’s just say—they all have one thing in common: regret.
USER ONE
“AirDXB is running an exploitative scam. They rent out your property at high rates but report only a small fraction of the earnings to you. You won’t see the actual booking receipts, and they’ve apparently been banned from Airbnb. When you ask questions, they respond with legal threats. You’re stuck in a contract that’s almost impossible to get out of without losing money. Reviews that criticize them? Gone in 48 hours. People have suffered financially and mentally. It’s disgusting that this continues in a place like Dubai.”
USER TWO:
“They conned me out of 2,000 dirhams just during the onboarding process. They did an inspection while I was away, sent an absurd quote for renovations, and then ghosted me. When I pushed back and demanded a refund, they flat out refused. Even a complaint to Consumer Affairs went nowhere because they said I had ‘signed’ something. Huge waste of time and money.”
USER THREE:
“There’s no way to call them. No phone number, just an email address—and they never reply. It’s frustrating beyond belief.”
USER FOUR:
“I’m having a really bad experience with them too. I’ve connected with a group of over 200 other landlords in the same boat. We’re talking about taking legal action together. If you’re dealing with this, reach out—we need to stick together.”
USER FIVE:
“I worked with them for way too long. Total scam. They barely respond to emails or calls. I kept asking for access to the booking platforms like Airbnb or Booking.com—never got it. Instead, they send random income reports from their own system, which you can’t verify. If they’re legit, why not just give access? This whole thing taught me a hard lesson: never trust anyone with your property unless you can see the money flow yourself. Greed makes you ignore the red flags, but trust me, next time I’m saying no the second I don’t have full access.”
USER SIX:
“Every time I asked for booking receipts or payment proofs, they’d send some internal report from their own system—not actual receipts from Airbnb or other platforms. Don’t expect transparency from AirDXB. It’s just not part of their playbook.”
USER SEVEN:
“Turns out Airbnb caught onto their shady activities and banned them. I dug around and found that many of the people posting 5-star reviews are actually staff—names like Jackie Sanchez, Louis Bowers, and Mary Jane Comia. Check LinkedIn. There’s even a screenshot floating around of a manager asking employees to post fake reviews. Looks like they’re now operating under names like ‘Clifton’ or ‘Stay Short’—wonder why?”
USER EIGHT:
“My apartment has been empty for two months now. Listings vanished. No communication from their side. And I’m reading similar experiences from others. I’m done.”
USER NINE:
“I have properties with them too. August was bad but then they said they were restructuring. Greg started sending weekly video updates explaining the changes. They say Airbnb stopped covering guest damages, so they’ve moved away from it. My earnings dipped, but now they seem to be picking back up. Still, I can understand why people are upset.”
USER TEN:
“I gave them three properties. Everything crashed when Airbnb froze their listings. They didn’t inform us, and income tanked. One of my flats was rented out for just 25 AED—for three days! When I flew to Dubai to sort it out, they tried to reimburse me less than 50% of the damage costs. Completely unprofessional and dishonest. If you’re thinking of working with them—don’t.”
USER ELEVEN:
“I gave them multiple units. Huge mistake. They got kicked off Airbnb and started feeding landlords excuses. My luxury apartment in Dubai Marina was being rented for AED 40 per night. Then they made up fake charges and even stole linen from one of my units. I’m now building a civil case for fraud and theft. Mitch, the owner, spins the same lies to everyone. Don’t fall for it.”
Final Thoughts
This isn’t just about a few bad reviews. It’s a pattern—and a serious one. If you’ve had a bad experience with AirDXB, I encourage you to speak up. You can message me, or leave a comment here. You’re not alone.
This blog is here so that the truth can’t be deleted, hidden, or silenced. Let’s protect each other, and make sure no one else falls into this trap.
