Brink's-Mat villain Kenneth Noye REMOVES £1.7M Spanish villa from AirBnB trends now
Road rage killer Kenny Noye has removed the £1.7 million Spanish hideaway he was renting to British holidaymakers from Airbnb - after MailOnline revealed he was making a fortune from it.
The glossy ad promoting the mansion where the career criminal laid low after stabbing 21-year-old Stephen Cameron to death in front of his teenage girlfriend has been pulled from the platform.
It vanished hours after Mail Online published photos of the six-bed villa overlooking a magnificent golden sand beach near the fishing town where he was arrested after an international manhunt and told how Noye, 75, was charging unsuspecting UK tourists up to £13,000 for a two-week stay.
The villa, perched high on a hill overlooking beautiful Atlanterra beach close to the quiet village of Zahara de los Atunes in south-west Spain, is still available for rent on local estate agent-run Spanish websites.
But there was no sign of it on Tuesday on Airbnb, where Noye's son Brett had identified himself as the host.

An insider said: 'Owners can pause and remove properties from the site and that's what appears to have happened in this case.'
We revealed on Sunday Noye was using Brett to rake in thousands of pounds a week from holiday rentals while he tried to find a buyer for his mansion.
The career criminal, whose role helping to launder £26 million in gold bullion following the 1983 Brink's Mat robbery features in BBC drama The Gold, has it on the market for £1.7 million but has told friends he is understood to be looking to increase the asking price to around £2million
A two-week stay at a similar-sized villa costs between £10,500 and £13,000 in peak season, although Noye's was showing up as unavailable and presumably fully-booked for July and August.
Police were unable to seize the villa from Noye when he was jailed for the 1996 murder of Stephen Cameron
In the peak season months of July and August, a two-week stay could have costed upwards of £13,000
The £1.7million villa has also gone on sale and features two swimming pools and views of the Costa de la Luz
The villa's terrace offers stunning views of the Andalusian coastline and is sun-soaked in the summer
A week-long stay for four adults and four children at the start of October, the first period available after the summer before it disappeared from Airbnb, was coming in at £2,603 all-in with a long-stay discount and cleaning fee.
