While I’m used to hunting down budget Airbnbs for my weekends away, I can never help myself from looking up the more luxurious options. Cool architecture, unique homes and stunning locations are just the beginning.
These are – in my opinion – the six best Airbnb’s in Australia.

Secluded is an understatement when it comes to this treehouse hovering above 600 acres of private wilderness in the Blue Mountains. The property sits between a World Heritage-listed rainforest and two national parks. Oh, and you can enjoy these stunning views from the built-in hot tub.
