Is the property fully accessible?

Looking for a stay that's easy to navigate for you or a loved one with reduced mobility? We're here to help! Here's everything you need to know about finding a fully accessible property.

Understanding accessibility options

When searching for a property that suits your mobility needs, it's important to know the differences between disability-friendly and barrier-free options. Here's how to differentiate and find the right fit for your stay.

What are disability-friendly properties?

Disability-friendly properties offer some features that make them more accessible and comfortable for guests with limited mobility. They may not be fully accessible but can include helpful amenities.

Common disability-friendly features include:

• Step-free access to the entrance
• Step-free interiors
• Lifts or elevators
• Raised toilet seats
• Wide doors for easier navigation

To identify disability-friendly accommodations, check the amenities section of the property listing, where these specific features will be clearly listed.

What are barrier-free properties?

Barrier-free properties are designed to be fully accessible for guests with disabilities. These properties generally guarantee comprehensive access throughout the entire accommodation.

Barrier-free properties typically include:

• Wheelchair-accessible areas and pathways
• Ramps or step-free entrances
• Accessible bathrooms with grab bars or roll-in showers
• Step-free access to all key areas of the property
• Accessible parking facilities
• Accessible kitchen and dining areas

When searching, you can filter for barrier-free or wheelchair-accessible properties to find accommodations that are fully accessible.

How do I find a fully accessible property?

Follow these simple steps to find the perfect accessible property for your needs:

1. Search for properties by entering your destination and travel dates
2. Use the filters to select barrier-free, wheelchair-accessible, or specific disability-friendly features
3. Review the amenities section in each listing for detailed information on available accessibility features
4. Read guest reviews to learn about real experiences with the property's accessibility
