Why Searching for Video Games on Airbnb Is Harder Than It Should Be

Video games on-property matter to families with kids or groups planning downtime indoors — this covers the software and titles available rather than the console hardware itself, and is a meaningful add-on for rainy-day or evening entertainment on longer stays.

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 Video Games, 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 Video Games (code: 355), 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 Video Games

CustomBNB aggregates all of Airbnb's internal amenity codes — including Video Games (code 355) — 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 Video Games

Verify the Video Games before you commit

Airbnb amenities are self-reported by hosts. Before booking, scan the listing photos for the Video Games, 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 Video Games 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

Ask which console the games are for (PlayStation, Xbox, Switch) since the hardware and game titles need to match. If travelling with kids, also check age-appropriateness of the available game library rather than assuming it's family-friendly by default.
