Top 10 Most Expensive Airbnbs for Weekenstat in America and World |
Airbnb has revolutionized the hospitality industry. Prior to 2008, travelers would have likely booked a hotel or hostel for their trip to another town. Nowadays, many of these same people are opting for Airbnb. Airbnb has come a long way for a company that started out as two enterprising friends renting air mattresses on a loft apartment floor. And not just in the realm of diverse, quirky, and budget accommodation options — it's now listing some jaw-droppingly lavish mansions, villas, and estates around the world.
If you’re looking to book a night of total opulence, or just want to know how the 0.1 percent travel, then these pricey abodes are the best place to start. Here you’ll find vast mansions, luxury estates, unparalleled views and true architectural masterpieces.
Although many of these include all the extras you could imagine, are the very definition of luxury, and can sleep many guests, you’ll still be shelling out a small fortune for an overnight stay. But if money is no object, then why not splash out on one of the United States’s most expensive short-term rentals?

1. Casa Tau (Punta Mita, Mexico)

Price per night: $52,000 a night
The most expensive Airbnb in the world has been revealed, costing a whopping $52,000 a night. And a week at Casa Tau, in Punta Mita, Mexico, will set you back a staggering $366,000, according to comparison website Casino Bee. The Mexican resort has 12 bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, and a private gym, spa, and hot tub. Four of the bedrooms are housed in the two guesthouses which are on the site.
Drinks are brought to you as you lounge by the infinity pool while enjoying a daily canape service or freshly cooked woodfire pizza. Also outside is a private sun lounger deck, outdoor dining for 20, and lots of sports including a beach volleyball net, bocce ball court, and even bikes, paddleboards, and kayaks.
Guests can also access some of the resort amenities including many of the beach clubs, golf courses, and fitness centers. Also on-site is billiards, ping pong, a media room, and huge TVs and sound systems. Built-in December 2018, the villa is on the exclusive Punta Mita 600-hectare peninsula on the southwest coast of Mexico.
Casa Tau is part of the exclusive Los Ranchos community and includes ocean views and a private path to a sandy beach. The house was also featured in the US-British reality TV show Too Hot To Handle. Former famous guests include rapper Ludacris and his family, while other celebs such as Beyonce, Lady Gaga, and the Kardashians have holidayed on Punta Mita.
2. A Sumptuous Napa Valley Escape (Yountville, California)

Price per night: $45,000 for a three-night weekend stay
California’s Napa Valley is no stranger to fancy villas, but if the price is anything to go by, this is one of the special ones. This high-end villa, dubbed Bellissimo Alba, is perched atop a hill with sweeping views and total privacy.
The Villa is Airbnb’s most expensive rental in the U.S.—and for good reason. Among its impressive amenities are a private pool, a hot tub, and a daily breakfast chef. The five-bedroom home, which sits on 22 acres, can host up to 10 guests.
There are four bedrooms that can sleep up to 12 guests, and the villa is equipped with all of the modern conveniences your tech-hungry heart could desire. There’s a library, exercise room, gourmet kitchen, and saltwater lap pool on the premises, and you’re also within easy reach of more than 40 acres of hiking trails. A single-night stay in this humble home starts at $2,000.
3. Pointe Milou (St. Barts, France)

Price per night: $19,000 a night
Saint Barthélemy, commonly known as St. Barts, has long been a favorite of the jet-set and offers no shortage of $10,000-a-night listings on Airbnb. However, the insane ocean views throughout are a differentiator in this 7,000-square-foot space, including from all six bedrooms. Other highlights include an infinity pool that appears to extend into the Caribbean and a fitness room filled with a stationary bike, treadmill, and weightlifting equipment. While there’s no direct beach access, a sandy path winds down to a horseshoe-shaped cove. This pad can be rented for as little as $3,330 a night during the low season, but prepare to shell out about $19,000 a night if you and your squad want to work on your tan during the winter holidays.
These villas offer unobstructed views and tend to be located on the top of some hills (e.g. villa Alpaka and villa Lenalee perched above Flamands, villa King Gustaf above Gustavia). Some are located in quiet and renowned areas, such as villa Mirabai in Pointe Milou and villa Lagon Vert within the Levant estate.

Price per night: $4,500 a night
If you’re going to splurge on an African safari, you might as well go all out by renting an entire lodge with five others for about $4,500 a night. The upscale Izingwe Lodge is tucked away in Limpopo, South Africa, on the Welgevonden Game Reserve, a malaria-free zone that includes the Big Five (lions, elephants, rhinos, leopards and buffalo).

Price per night: $8,000 a night
At a shade under $8,000 per night, this beautiful Brooklyn brownstone is easily one of the most expensive listings on Airbnb. But there’s a slight catch, in that it’s been kitted out specifically for the film industry.
