One way to start your day at Natalie’s big hinterland house: grab some ingredients from the property’s trees—avocado, banana, fig, mango, orange—and have breakfast on the balcony while the mist lifts. Then pack up the leftovers for a picnic at Minyon Falls (a half-hour away) or the beach (even closer). Photo: @nataliewalton

Marlene and Justin’s house may make you want to laze around indoors, but it’s also perfectly located for high-desert adventure. Fuel up with a stack of hotcakes from the Crossroads Cafe before a day of exploring the national park next door—or your own 15 acres of Joshua Trees and jackrabbits. Photo: @stateissued
Sometimes there's an elephant in the room–but this time, the elephant *is* the room
Sometimes there's an elephant in the room–but this time, the elephant *is* the room. Meet Lucy, a 138-year-old wooden elephant who calls the Jersey Shore home. Despite not hosting an official stay since 1902, she's ready to open her doors for a limited time in March so guests can experience the National Historic Landmark for themselves – only on Airbnb.

The toughest part of your stay in this cozy cube of a tiny cabin is posing for a picture when you’d rather be staring out the window and wagging your tail. You and your two-legged pals will also love roaming the trails of Big Falls County Park, just 10 minutes away. Photo: @goldenlifeofleroy

Live like 16th century French nobility (but with updated swimwear) on the grounds of a stone chateau surrounded by forest and Côtes du Rhône vineyards.

Back in the 19th century, this spacious upstate retreat was a schoolhouse
Back in the 19th century, this spacious upstate retreat was a schoolhouse. Days here are presumably a bit more fun now, but you’ll still want to get out and explore Kingston and other Hudson Valley towns. Start your day with a bite at Outdated, a combination café-antique shop where the bialys are fresh and the curios are anything but. Photo: @lizaherlands_

Superhost Shannon’s retreat in the Rockies elevates the geodesic dome to an art form—and to 9,817 feet above sea level
Superhost Shannon’s retreat in the Rockies elevates the geodesic dome to an art form—and to 9,817 feet above sea level. Hike, bike, and fish nearby, or take a day trip to Breckenridge Ski Resort. With a backyard yurt and fenced-in dog run, it’s also a paradise for kids and canines. If you bring yours (either variety), just be prepared to promise a return visit. Photo: @thevistadome

The celebration’s about to begin
The celebration’s about to begin. Carnival takes many forms, but it’s always an experience to remember—especially when you have a special place where you can catch your breath between the festivities, like Cannelle’s cliffside villa in Guadeloupe or Udo’s Moorish-style castle on Tenerife. With equally special spots in Rio de Janeiro, Venice, and New Orleans, just to name a few, the possibilities are endless.

Contemplating the Førde Fjord from Superhost Torstein’s cubic cabin might be the world’s best way to think inside the box
Contemplating the Førde Fjord from Superhost Torstein’s cubic cabin might be the world’s best way to think inside the box. Hike the surrounding mountains or just follow the cows and sheep as they wander the wild landscape. In summer, wait until about midnight before heading down to the water for a sunset swim.

Superhost Jay’s elegant apartment is perched on the coast of Yeong-do, the island that forms one corner of the city. If it’s your first time here, get your bearings by climbing Jangsan, a mountain just outside of town with views of the whole area. Once you come down, it’s up to you whether to spend your time deep inside this tub or deep inside a bowl of bibim milmyeon, the spicy local noodle specialty. Photo: @so__nni_
