Canada’s summer season is around the corner, and with it comes road trips, cottage weekends and the longer days and warmer nights we’ve patiently been waiting for from coast-to-coast-to-coast.
As peak tourism season kicks off, travelers are taking advantage of unique Canadian properties like tiny homes, treehouses, earth homes, barns and boathouses like never before. New data by Airbnb shows that nights booked at unique listings in Canada increased by almost 70 percent last year compared to 2019.
In the spirit of wanderlust, Airbnb is helping to inspire imaginations, fill social feeds and provide some much-needed rest and relaxation for travelers. We’re releasing Canada’s top wishlisted unique stays found in every corner in Canada.
From our partners:
From the cozy Cob Cottage on Vancouver Island and a Mongolian Yurt in the heart of the Yukon, to a Lighthouse on the Bay in Nova Scotia and a spectacular Scandinavian chalet above the sky in Quebec, Canada is chalk full of creative, fascinating, unique and popular one-of-a-kind stays on Airbnb, tailor-made for every traveler’s dream vacation.
And of course, no Canadian travel bucket list is complete without a treehouse adventure surrounded by evergreen, pine and spruce – a treehouse in a private and isolated forest, a one-of-kind two-story treehouse in Ontario, and a treehouse created by our Top New Host of 2021 in BC, amongst many others. Treehouses make up 10 of the top 40 Canadian wishlisted unique stays in 2021.
Canada’s Most Wishlisted Unique Stays
Planning trips around unique places is made even easier with the global release of Flexible Destinations. Announced as part of a major update to our service in 2021, this feature joins a suite of new ‘flexible’ product innovations designed to transform the browsing and booking experience on Airbnb. Last year, we released 150 upgrades to improve every aspect of the Airbnb service to support the travel revolution happening in Canada and around the world.Read more about: Canada
About Airbnb
Airbnb was born in 2007 when two Hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to 4 million Hosts who have welcomed more than 1 billion guest arrivals across over 220 countries and regions. Travel on Airbnb keeps more of the financial benefits of tourism with the people and places that make it happen. Airbnb has generated billions of dollars in earnings for Hosts, most of whom are individuals listing the homes in which they live. Among Hosts who report their gender, more than half are women, and one in five employed Hosts are either teachers or healthcare workers. Travel on Airbnb also has generated more than $4 billion in tax revenue around the world. Airbnb has helped advance more than 1,000 regulatory frameworks for short-term rentals, including in 80% of our top 200 geographies. In late 2020, to support our continued expansion and diversification, we launched the City Portal to provide governments with a one-stop shop that supports data sharing and compliance with local registration rules. We continue to invest in innovations and tools to support our ongoing work with governments around the world to advance travel that best serves communities.
