Have you ever stayed in an A-Frame cabin overlooking the Finnish seaside? Or slept under the stars in a geodesic dome in Chile? Maybe a tranquil treehouse in Nashville is more your speed? Either way, these are all experiences you can have with this year’s Airbnb rental round-up. Last year, I scoured the internet for the most beautiful and unique Airbnbs I could find — and I like to think I have pretty picky taste.
This year, I’m focusing on the same theme but with a fresh new crop of properties that I think will have your wanderlust meter go haywire…or so I hope! This impressive list of homes starts at only $34 a night and most are quite affordable, so get your calendar out and start planning because you’re about to be in for some serious travel inspiration.
