The Map View lets you explore properties and groups visually — directly on a map. It's perfect for users who want to see where things are before deciding what to book. Whether you're planning a weekend in Porto or exploring group stays across Europe, the map gives you a location-first way to browse and compare.
1. How Do I Open the Map View?
You can access Map View from the Explore tab:
After entering a destination or applying filters
Tap the Map View button (at the bottom center of the screen)
The map will center on your selected area
If no destination is entered, the map defaults to a broader region (e.g. Europe).
2. What Do the Pins Mean?
Each pin on the map represents a property, group stay, or (in future releases) an event.
Pins may vary based on:
Icon or color – to distinguish types (e.g. property vs. group)
Labels – showing price, group size, or availability
Clusters – when multiple stays are close together, pins may group into a number until you zoom in
Tap any pin to reveal more details in a preview card.
3. What Are Map Cards?
Map Cards are small previews that appear when you tap a pin. They may show:
Price per night
Name or image of the property or group
Basic availability or size
Action button to view the full listing
Tap the card to open the full property or group details.
-
Map Cards help you quickly compare options without switching views.
4. How Do Filters Work in Map View?
Map View supports the same filters as List View, including:
Price range
Bedrooms or guest capacity
Property type
Dates (if selected)
Filters applied in either Map or List View affect both — however, if you change filters in one view and switch to the other, you may need to zoom or pan slightly to refresh the display.

5. How Does Zooming Work?
As you zoom in, the map updates to show more detailed results:
Zoom Level | What You’ll See |
1x (wide view) | Grouped pins showing general availability in a large area |
2x (mid view) | Pins begin to separate into individual properties and groups |
3x (close view) | Individual pins show precise placement, price, and listing previews (where available) |
Some pending group stays may appear slightly offset from their actual location to protect privacy. This means the pin may not show the exact address until the group is confirmed.
6. Why Can’t I See My Group or Property on the Map?
If your group or property doesn’t appear where you expect:
Possible Reason | What to Do |
You're zoomed out too far | Zoom in to see more detail |
The group is pending | The location may be slightly offset |
Filters are hiding it | Widen your filters or clear them |
It's outside the current view | Pan the map manually to find the area |
If nothing appears on the map at all, try switching to List View to confirm whether the listing is available.
