Airbnbs are popping up left, right and center. Your family has its pick of anything from super-economy stays to over-the-top luxury finds almost anywhere in the world. If the luxury route with high-end digs and amenities is more your family’s speed, consider this list your top contenders for your next big 5-star vacation.
Grab up to a dozen of your favorite travel friends and family members for an exclusive dip in the jungles of Thailand. Split the Baan Mika, Koh Samui Luxury Villa in Lo Samiu, Thailand, with the family and enjoy all the riches of the luxury stay while feeling completely immersed in your surroundings. While you may feel completely remote and off the beaten path, your villa is actually quite close to the city and various local beaches. That is, if you leave the villa as it’s basically a world of its own. This six-bedroom and six-bathroom stay includes breakfast, 5-star service, luxury amenities and a stunning private pool and lounge. Prices range $1,200–1,500 a night.
Another stunner for larger groups and families, the Villa Samira is a luxury retreat available through Airbnb’s Luxe collection. This stay includes housekeeping, private chef, six bedrooms, six baths and stunning vistas of the Bay of Bengal. Sit in the open-air great room with the kids and plan your day of exploring, or lay low lounging by the infinity pool. This stay in Kathu, Thailand, is available for around $1,250 a night.

Also available on Airbnb Luxe, the Layan 7 Bedroom Seaview Residence in Thalang, Thailand, is truly jaw-dropping. Each room boasts a beautiful view of the surrounding landscape — so no fighting over the best room for each of the kids — and a slew of amenities you might not otherwise book. This luxury stay includes a butler, airport transfer, housekeeping services, a private chef and exclusive add-on services to the tune of $9,766 a night.
By offering luxury amenities and services, as the Airbnb Luxe world does, a lot of the 5-star stays take away the wonder of what to do, where to go and how to get around while in Thailand. It can be difficult planning a vacation in a far-away and highly-sought after destination, but with the help of the included amenities and services of the high-end Airbnbs, tourists can easily navigate the exotic landscape and get the most out of the locale — much like a world-class hotel concierge, but with the added exclusivity of a private villa.
