Not that you need to justify spending half of your stay in this tub, but if it makes you feel better, you can wear yourself out first with a vigorous hike from the nearby Idyllwild Nature Center. Just be sure to beat your friends back to Superhost Anthony’s lovingly restored 1962 chalet. Photo: @idyllhaus

At Eduardo’s loft overlooking Playa de Quintay, the toughest decision you’ll face is whether to spend the day above the waves or far beneath them, scuba diving among wrecked whaling ships. Either way, be sure to head to the pier afterward for fresh fish to grill on your deck while the whole coast turns pink. @rafael_medeiros

Not that the surrounding area is a desert—sprawling Victoria Park is a block away. When you’re hungry, keep the blooming theme going at Scarecrow, a unique combination florist-café. Photo: @mrcigar

Superhosts Ulrich and Elisabeth’s eco-retreat on a roadless island has a coral reef for a front yard and a mangrove forest out back. Explore the lagoon by snorkel or kayak or take a cue from the tree sloths who’ll (eventually) visit and just slow down. Photo: @soyyiana
