Whether you’re in it for the ski or the après-ski, this beautiful luxury chalet in the French Alps (just a few kilometres from a ski resort) features an unusually high cathedral ceiling as well as a wood-burning fireplace – the perfect backdrop for a well-deserved cheese fondue.

Cabin in the Norway fjords

This old thing? Just a fabulous cabin by one of Norway’s most famous fjords. Perfect for hikers and boat enthusiasts – as for me, I will just enjoy a chilled glass of white wine on that lovely waterfront terrace, thank you very much.

Luxury villa in Iceland

Experience this ultra-modern, bold villas in the tranquil village of Akureyri in Northern Iceland, with nature at your doorstep. This is an excellent option year round, as you can both enjoy the midnight sun in the summertime as well as the aurora borealis in the wintertime – as you know, Iceland is always a good idea.

Copenhagen, Denmark

$191 per night

Vintage apartment in Copenhagen

Denmark is the world capital of design and has been for quite a few decades now, ever since it grandfathered the trend we now recognise as “mid-century modern”. This impeccably furnished apartment in trendy Nørrebro is like a blast from the past!

Santorini, Greece

$195 per night
airbnbs in europe santorini greece
Apartment in Santorini

I’ve said it repeatedly: whatever you do in Santorini, spend the night. Even though the island is gorgeous at any time of the day, it can be hard to navigate its narrow cobblestone streets in the daytime with the thousands of tourists on a day cruise. The island is much quieter, and therefore much more enjoyable, in the evening. This traditional cave house, with unobstructed views of the caldera, is a great option.

Skye, Scotland

$118 per night
AIRBNB IN SKYE
Waterside cabin on the Isle of Skye

A luxury self-catering studio for two on the edge of a bird sanctuary with stunning views of Beinn na Caillich mountain, this bijou Airbnb is close to many Skye attractions as well as a number of shops. The power shower, the cosy fireplace as well as the downright idyllic setting make it a top accommodation of the Isle of Skye. I stayed there myself and had a wonderful time; Fiona is a lovely host.

Cinque Terre, Italy

$128 per night

Airbnb in Cinque Terre

Quite possibly the best balcony in Italy! The apartment is small but frankly this is not the main selling point here, as the romantic terrace overlooks the village of Corniglia in Italy’s legendary Cinque Terre.

Galway, Ireland

$150 per night
airbnbs in europe church galway ireland
Church in Ireland

Experience life in a 200-year old restored church just a few minutes from lively Galway, on the scenic western coast of Ireland. Although the church is equipped with every modern amenity, it’s also kept many of its original features – definitely an unforgettable, unique adventure!

Lidingö, Sweden

$140 per night
Stockholm Writers Cabin
Writers cabin in Stockholm

The writer in me constantly fantasies about booking a self-imposed retreat at this idyllic and cozy little house in the Swedish countryside. It’s far enough to feel isolated and yet it’s a quick ferry ride to central Stockholm. Can I just move in already?

Dubrovnik, Croatia

$104 per night
airbnb in dubrovnik
Airbnb with a view in Dubrovnik

Waking up to this view every morning probably doesn’t suck, especially considering how close it is to the Croatian coast and Dubrovnik’s Old Town – minus the hefty nightly rate.
