When searching for accommodation on Airbnb, the standard filter panel only exposes around 24 of the 500+ amenity codes that hosts can apply to their listings. Grotto is one of the filters that isn't consistently visible in Airbnb's standard UI — meaning travellers who specifically need this amenity have to manually browse through listings or read every description to check. CustomBNB solves this by surfacing Airbnb's internal amenity code for Grotto (code: 194) directly in its search interface.
When you open Airbnb's search filter panel, you'll see options for basic amenities like "Wifi" and "Pool." But for more specific features like Grotto, the filter may not appear at all — or it's buried so deep that most travellers never find it. Airbnb has assigned an internal amenity code to Grotto (code: 194), but their UI simply doesn't expose it.
This forces travellers into one of two bad options: read through every listing description hoping the host mentioned it, or book somewhere and discover the amenity isn't available after you arrive.
How CustomBNB Lets You Filter by Grotto
CustomBNB aggregates all of Airbnb's internal amenity codes — including Grotto (code 194) — and surfaces them through a simple, searchable interface. When you click the search button, CustomBNB generates an Airbnb URL with the amenity code appended, sending you directly to pre-filtered results on Airbnb's platform.
You're not leaving Airbnb's ecosystem — you're just arriving with your filters already set. CustomBNB requires no account to try, and takes under 30 seconds. For a deeper look at how Airbnb's hidden filter system works, read our complete guide to Airbnb's hidden amenity codes.

Tips for Booking an Airbnb with Grotto
Verify the Grotto before you commit
Airbnb amenities are self-reported by hosts. Before booking, scan the listing photos for the Grotto, check that recent reviews mention it positively, and read the "Things to know" section for any caveats. A filter match is a starting point — not a guarantee.
Message the host to confirm if it's a dealbreaker
If Grotto is essential to your trip, send the host a quick message before booking to confirm it's available and in working order for your dates. Most hosts respond within a few hours. Getting it in writing also protects you if there's a dispute after check-in.
What else to look for in the listing
Always confirm with the host that Grotto is available, functional, and accessible before completing your booking. Airbnb amenities are self-reported by hosts and are not independently verified. If Grotto is important to your trip, mention it explicitly in a message to the host before booking to ensure there are no surprises on arrival.
