If you're looking to make the season a bit brighter, perhaps a nearby getaway is in order.

Architectural Digest recently assembled a list of the Austin's seven best Airbnb rental properties. They range from 1950s bungalows to a vintage trailer with charm to spare. Architectural Digest notes that all seven properties are certified as “Airbnb Plus,” meaning they deliver exceptional quality, comfort, and style.

A note, however, Airbnb is cracking down on house parties at rental properties as COVID numbers continue to spike around the nation. But if you are able to make a reservation for New Year’s Eve — or at any other time, for that matter — here are the seven local properties that caught the eye of Architectural Digest.

Architectural Digest raves that this home “is a sanctuary for anyone hoping to unwind and reset.” Amenities include sliding glass walls, a firepit, a 12-foot outdoor dining table, and a wood-lined bathroom featuring a chromotherapy bath.

Its clean, modern design features height ceilings, an “art studio aesthetic,” and welcoming décor.

“This studio is stocked with all of the essentials: think kitchenware, a work desk, a decked-out TV, and enough indoor plants to go around. If you’re looking for more square footage, book the main house out front for an upgraded experience,” Architectural Digest notes.

This four-bedroom, one-bathroom guesthouse is in East Austin, near East 12th Street and North Pleasant Valley Road, straddles the Chestnut and Rosewood neighborhoods. The listing shows a nightly rental rate of $98.

Architectural Digest emphasizes the property’s “inviting subway-tiled kitchen” with gold hardware that complements rounded wooden edges and wicker furniture. It also points out the inviting pebble-lined entrance, which leads to the bars along nearby Chicon Street.

The “hidden gem” couples a “cabin in the woods” vibe with the modern feel of a renovated art studio, Architectural Digest says. “With its weathered wood textures and sky blue accents, the South Manchaca spot is an oasis for any traveler,” according to the publication.

Vintage trailer in Ford Oaks
