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
The Hotel with the Best Views of Buenos Aires
They call Buenos Aires the ‘Paris of South America’. Historic neighborhoods of elegant, whitewashed buildings with ornate wrought iron trim, its reputation as the global capital of theater with 280 theaters, more than any other city in the world, and the world’s biggest boulevard, lined, like the grand boulevards of France’s capital, with monumental buildings… all add up to a distinctly European feel in Argentina’s capital city.

How You Can Help Solve Overtourism - AND Still Enjoy the World's Most Popular Destinations
Amsterdam. Venice. Barcelona. Just to name a few. These are spectacular, vibrant, magical cities… reeling under the weight of tourists.I’m very fortunate to have visited a number of cities that are now on the list of overtouristed destinations. They are magnificent and life changing. But sadly, each subsequent visit, I see the very qualities travelers go there to seek eroded a little bit more by a growing volume of tourists.Over-touristed destinations worry about becoming artificial, ‘theme park’ versions of their charming, unique,...

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 Start your day with a bite at Outdated, a combination café-antique shop where the bialys are fresh and the curios are anything but.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

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_
