If you’re a history buff, you’d think we’re mixing up the ancient city of Palmyra in Syria and USA, but we’re not. Palmyra is located in New York’s Wayne County, but very much owes its name to its historical Syrian counterpart. While this American town is humble in most aspects, a namesake village within the town is its biggest highlight. The Palmyra village was once the centre of religious revivalism. Today, it is among the most visited spots in the area. So, if you’re planning to visit this historic town, check out our list of the top Airbnb vacation rentals in Palmyra, New York.
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 09, 2024.
