Kicking off the new year with my annual posts all starts with 19 Airbnb rentals to stay at in 2019. This is one of my favorite posts to share as each year the list changes and grows.
The past few years, like the 2018 list, showcased incredible rentals across the globe. Airbnb’s that were wildly unique, set in remote destinations, and perhaps a bit quirky. The kind that peaked interest for our senses.
This year I’m focusing on something entirely different. I did a poll on what you value when it comes to booking accommodations and you’ve asked for more meaningful stays. Accommodations that transcend beyond the stay, and move us to make changes within our lives at home. So what does that mean for the this top Airbnb list for 2019?
It means Airbnb rentals that are discerning in design, elevating of the local area, and provide a compelling story for why we choose to travel.
So without a further ado, here is your list for 2019. Some rentals that will be close to home for our mostly California and New York readers, and other Airbnb rentals that will require an effort well worth it. These 19 Airbnb rentals to stay at in 2019 will surely create memories to talk about for decades to come.

PS — Are You Booking a Trip Soon? Use My Booking Checklist!
These are the sites I use most to book my own trips. Using the links below is a great way to support Bon Traveler’s travel journalism at no extra cost to you. If you need help organizing your itinerary, get my free travel itinerary template here.
1. Book Your Flights
Use Skyscanner to find the best flights. It searches 100s of airlines and websites across the globe to ensure you’re not missing out on any route options or deals.
2. Book Your Accommodations
Use Booking.com for hotels and guest houses. They have the biggest inventory and consistently offer the best rates.
3. Book Your Tours & Experiences
Use Viator or Get Your Guide to find the best tours and experiences. They are my favorite tour search engines. I always check both as their inventory varies depending on the destination.
4. Book Your Car
Use Discover Cars or Rentalcars.com to find the best car rental deals. I recommend comparing rental agency reviews on Google to ensure you are booking with the best company in that destination, as the reviews are often more accurate than the car rental search engines.
5. Don’t Forget Airport Lounge Access
Get a Priority Pass membership to gain access to 1,400+ VIP lounges and airport experiences worldwide. The Priority Pass app is the first thing I check when I have a layover. I’ve been a member for over a decade, and having a comfortable place to relax before and between flights makes air travel so much more enjoyable.
6. Don’t Forget Travel Insurance
I never leave the country without travel insurance. It provides comprehensive protection in case anything goes wrong (ie. illness, injury, theft, and cancelations, etc.). I use it frequently for my travels to stay protected.
My favorite companies that offer the best coverage and rates are:
- World Nomads (best for all-around)
- Safety Wing (best for frequent travelers)

Hi there
This is a really nice post! I liked looking at all these rentals. Airbnb kind of has been a revelation for me this past year. I used to be a hostel kind of guy.
My favorites on this list are the Treehouse in Colombia Falls and the Aframe in California.
The treehouse because it looks like a lot of fun and adventure. A booking I would do to satisfy the inner child in me. Also just the shamelessly childish adult in me.
The A-frame because it is more nostalgic. My family and I used to sleep in those houses in Denmark when I was a kid. In Dutch, I had a word for them my parents still use against me.
Thank you for sharing this blog!
