Shenzhen in Guangdong Province, China holds a special place among Chinese cities. It was singled out to be the first of the five Special Economic Zones (SEZ) in May 1980. The SEZ was spearheaded by Deng Xiaoping as a sort of economic experiment to see if market capitalism can work in a socialist country like China. The city has enjoyed immense growth over the years and this has attracted foreign investors. Towering skyscrapers is now commonplace in Shenzhen as well as a host of restaurants, malls, and other amenities you’d expect to find in a world-class city. So if you’re visiting this megacity whether for business or pleasure your first concern would be your accommodations. So to help you out we’ve compiled a list of the best Airbnbs in Shenzhen, China.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 07, 2024.

8. Unit with a faux fireplace

Annie Cuba’s old dream is located in Hong Kong Island Ginza Apartment, Luohu District, Shenzhen. The common area and bedroom share the same space, there is a queen-sized bed, a dining/work table, and a couch that seems like a cut-out of a bathtub. The coolest thing about this part of the unit is the faux fireplace. Even though you won’t be burning any firewood in this fake fireplace, it definitely helps the place feel cozier. The bright kitchen is equipped with a variety of appliances that are practical and beautiful. The bathroom has a soaking tub for relaxation and a pleasant color ambiance.
