# TypingMind MCP + Airbnb

This guide will help you set up the Airbnb **MCP server**, provides AI assistants on TypingMind with the ability to search Airbnb listings with advanced filtering capabilities and detailed property information retrieval.

## Why setting Airbnb MCP on TypingMind?

Connecting the **Airbnb MCP server** to TypingMind lets your AI assistant directly access Airbnb data in real time.

With this setup, you can:

* Search Airbnb listings by location, date, price, or amenities.
* Retrieve detailed property information such as reviews, host data, and availability.
* Automate property discovery and comparison using natural language prompts.
* Integrate Airbnb search results into larger workflows when using TypingMind with other MCP servers (like Notion or n8n).

## Step-by-step to install Airbnb MCP on TypingMind

### Step 1: Set up MCP Connectors

In TypingMind, go to Settings → Advanced Settings → Model Context Protocol to start setup your MCP connector. The MCP Connector acts as the bridge between TypingMind and the MCP servers.

MCP servers require a server to run on. TypingMind allows you to connect to the MCP servers via:

* Your own local device
* Or a private remote server.
