As full-time nomads 2022 Feb-July we were in 5 different AirBnB's in Buenos Aires. Then came back to BA in December for 30 days, and over to Patagonia til end of Feb 2023, in more AirBnB's. We also were in some lodges, hotels, and non-AirBnB apartments. We found no way to reserve on AirBnB and paying in Pesos.

HOWEVER, Booking.com has apartments, many that are the same apartment listed on AirBnB. I would say 3/4 of our Booking.com Argentine lodgings, we selected "pay at hotel" and used Pesos. Our one month trip in Patagonia was much cheaper because of this.

Ask me any questions.
