What a listing page tells you

Down the page

• The name, a heart to save it, and Share. Under them, the town — and, from a place's third review, the rating out of five and the number of reviews as a link that jumps straight to them. Before that it says New, with any reviews it has. A new listing shows the town alone.
• Photos — one large one and up to four smaller. The smaller ones only appear on screens wider than a phone. Show all N photos opens a full-screen viewer, and the arrow keys, the on-screen arrows or a swipe all move through it. It wraps around from the last photo to the first.
• The space — the name of the unit and its town, then guests, bedrooms, beds and baths.
• The rating panel, from a listing's third review: the average, the stars and the count. It reads Guest favorite at 4.8 or better, and Rated by real stays otherwise. Every review comes from a stay that finished — you can only write one after check-out has passed, one per stay, and never for a cancelled stay.
• Hosted by, with a Message host button. It opens a short form — your dates, who is coming, your message — and sending it signed out takes you to sign in first.
• A short strip of highlights — lines like "Short stays welcome", "Highly rated by guests" or "No booking fee". "Short stays welcome" comes from this listing's own minimum stay and "Highly rated by guests" from its reviews. "No booking fee" is not a host setting at all — Kabora's guest fee is switched off everywhere, so that line is on every listing.
• The host's own description.
• Where you'll sleep — one card per room the host has described, with its beds, whether it has its own bathroom, and any photos they filed under it. It only appears when a host has filled the rooms in, which most have not yet, so on many listings there is nothing between the description and the amenities.
• What this place offers — the first ten amenities, the rest behind a button. A listing with no amenities gets no section.
• Safety, when the host has said anything under it: dangers to know about, where the alarms and extinguisher are, what to expect, and the outdoor cameras or a line saying there are none. Cameras are never allowed inside a place on Kabora. What the host has not answered is left out — a reassuring blank would be a promise nobody made.
• Report this listing — a link that opens a short form, and it goes to Kabora staff, not to your host. It is on every listing, including the ones with no Safety section.
• If your plans change — the cancellation policy that will be recorded on your booking. A later change by the host does not change your deal.
• Select check-in date — this month and next, each night for sale showing its price as a whole number, with the currency named once above the grid rather than on every square. Hatched nights are not for sale, but that covers more than bookings: a night can be booked, or blocked, or closed off by the host. Hover one and it says either Booked or just Not available.
• Reviews — the average to two places, the count, a bar per star rating, and up to six category scores: cleanliness, accuracy, check-in, communication, location and value. Those six are optional when a guest writes a review, so only the ones people actually answered appear, and a listing can show none of them. The six most recent show first, with the host's reply underneath any that got one; Show all N reviews opens the rest.
• Where you'll be — a map with a shaded circle the place sits somewhere inside (a dot on the house only if the host chose to show it), with the town under the heading. The street address is not on this page; it is on your own stay page, the private page you get for a booking.
• Things to know — check-in and check-out times, the guest maximum, the host's house rules, the shortest and longest stay allowed, and a short booking-and-payment note.

That last note and the booking panel say the same thing: a host who reviews requests gets "This host reviews each request" and a Request booking button; otherwise the button is Reserve, and your dates confirm as soon as payment goes through. Signed out the button reads Sign in to book, and with no card on your account Add a card to book. One case the panel cannot show you either: a host can accept guests with a clean history automatically and review everyone else, and that reads exactly like reviewing everybody.

The jump bar, on big screens only

Once you scroll past the photos on a screen around 1024 pixels wide or more, a bar fades in and pins itself under the site header: Photos, Amenities, Availability, Reviews, Location. It underlines whichever section you are reading. Phones do not get it, and nor does a tablet held upright — scroll instead.

The price in the booking panel

Before any dates are known, the big number is the cheapest open night in the next 90 days, and it says from. It skips nights that are booked, blocked or past, but not the host's notice rules, so it may be a night you cannot arrive on. If no night in that window is open it falls back to the host's standard rate and still says from — that is a rate, not a night anybody can book.

Arrive with dates already in the link — clicking a search result after you searched with dates does exactly this — and the word from disappears. The figure becomes that quote's accommodation divided by its nights, so it cannot disagree with the breakdown underneath it.

Dates you pick in the calendar inside the panel behave differently. They re-price the breakdown, and they do not touch the big number: it keeps showing the from price until the page is loaded again with those dates. When the two disagree, the breakdown is the one to read — it is the quote you would actually be charged.
