Superhost Christina transformed a fisherman’s boathouse into a cozy bungalow with an unbeatable front yard. Wake to the sound of waves, cruise around the island discovering hidden beaches, and come home to grill the catch of the day on your porch. Photo: @ordinarytraveler

Extraordinary View of the Atlantic + Outdoor Spa (Møre og Romsdal, Norway)

With modern Scandinavian design, an outdoor jacuzzi and endless views of the Atlantic, what more could you ask for? Families will also enjoy a kids’ playroom and fishing boat to explore the surrounding bays.

Marit’s waterfront house overlooks some of Northwest Norway’s richest fishing waters—and even comes with its own boat. But you’ll probably be too busy gazing at the sea and sky and rocky coastline to catch anything bigger than a snapshot. If you’re not the seafaring type, the nearby Atlantic Ocean Road snakes its way across tiny islands and down the coast. Make sure to bring a designated driver who is unfazed by wild beauty.

Pelangi Skai Joglo – Treehouse with Ricefield View (Katik Lantang, Bali)

Superhost Darma’s elegant treehouse might make you believe it’s called an infinity pool because you lose track of time there. One moment you’re enjoying your floating breakfast and the next you’re watching fireflies twinkle above the dark rice fields. Photo: @laraholmes_

Casa Volta Cerca de Casa Wabi (Oaxaca, Mexico)

Water lovers will rejoice at this Oaxacan oasis. Enjoy a tropical beverage poolside, or walk just a couple minutes through lush greenery to your own wild private beach at this Italian-inspired villa.

Important reminder: Superhost Patricio’s Italian-inspired villa is only a couple minutes’ walk through lush greenery to a wild private beach. Forget this key fact and you’ll wind up spending your entire stay at least partially submerged in this pool. Admittedly, that’s not such a bad outcome. Photo: @caitwisha

Small Cottage with Amazing Views (Hordaland, Norway)

This remote cabin comes complete with extraordinary views of the Sandvin Lake. If you are up for an adventure, the Trolltunga mountain sits just a hike away for you to explore.

Tove’s tiny cottage puts as little as possible between you and your views of Sandvin Lake. If you feel like your jaw hasn’t dropped far enough, take a short drive—and long hike—up to Trolltunga, the rock formation that juts out impossibly over the landscape. ⁣ ⁣ Photo: @beingriku

Guests are greeted with a tasting plate and bottle of bubbly upon arrival at this one-of-a-kind home. Located in the most tranquil of settings, this idyllic floating villa is perfect for a quiet getaway.

Ashlea’s floating villa on the Pittwater waterway is perfect for quiet reflection. But there’s plenty to do if you feel like it. Take the included dinghy to Portuguese Beach for a picnic, paddleboard along the coast, or climb an old sandstone lighthouse for spectacular views followed by kingfish ceviche at Barrenjoey House.

Il Giglio, Amazing Lake View with Swimming Pool (Bellagio, Italy)

Enjoy incredible views of Lake Como from the heated swimming pool at this stunning Bellagio home. After taking in the scenery, enjoy the property’s spacious and private flower garden.

This apartment on Lake Como is equally well-suited for exploring destinations all around the lake or drifting the day away at home. When you feel like getting your feet back on the ground, take the cobbled footpath into town for dinner at Silvio, a lake-to-table restaurant in its hundredth year. Photo: @gone_fishin_productions

‘Cliff House’-Absolute Waterfront -Mollymook (Mollymook Beach, Australia)

After a long day of whale watching, relax and unwind in this sun-drenched coastal home with stunning, uninterrupted views of Mollymook’s waterfront.

Whale watching can be frustrating when you keep getting distracted by all the herons, fish eagles, and rosellas (spectacular Australian parrots) flying by. Head inland from Georgia’s clifftop house for a hike up Pigeon Rock Mountain or a farm-to-table meal at St. Isidore. ⁣ ⁣ Photo: @kirstenljenkins

Winding country roads take you to Superhost Josie’s cabin overlooking the River Exe Valley. From here, you can walk the valley’s endless trails, bike along the river, or drive to the Jurassic Coast. But you might want to set aside a little time for another mode of transport: this couch and a good book. Photo: @thiscitylifeldn

The Highlands – 7 Acres Overlooking Lake Eugenia (Lake Eugenia, Canada)

This little “bunkie” in the cedars is just part of Superhost Wilson’s Lake Eugenia retreat. It’s 40 feet away from the main house—just enough distance to escape your fam … er, enjoy some quiet contemplation. After your timeout, rent a canoe to explore the lake or ask Wilson for directions to his favorite swimming hole. Photo: @cedarhighlands
