My Neighbor Turned Their Airbnb Into a 24 Hour Party Nightmare

My neighbor rents out their house on Airbnb, and for the past three years, our lives have been a nightmare. We’ve experienced every kind of disturbance imaginable. They throw parties and even host weddings. At 2 a.m., they play darbuka drums, and in the middle of the night, people jump into the pool while shouting and yelling. I have dozens of videos, audio recordings, and screenshots of messages I sent to both the property owner and their staff to report the situation. What’s worse, when three families rent the place, they invite four more as guests. There are no rules or regulations — it’s constant noise 24/7. We call the police, they give a warning, but half an hour later it all starts again. This house has been warned by the police numerous times, the guests have been fined under the Misdemeanor Law, and the municipal police have issued penalties several times. We are completely out of patience. I urgently expect Airbnb Turkey to take serious and permanent action on this matter.

The municipality did everything it could. I sent dozens of emails and videos to Airbnb, but none of it made any difference.
