Season 2 of Netflix’s The World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals brought another batch of ridiculous places to stay, from budget finds to serious splurges. I researched all of them so you don’t have to, with the actual booking links for every Season 2 property below.

I’ve gone back through it for 2026 to update booking links, remove dead ones and figure out which of these amazing vacation rentals you can still actually stay in.2026 UPDATE: I originally published this list after Season 2 came out in 2021. I’ve gone back through it for 2026 to update booking links, remove dead ones and figure out which of these amazing vacation rentals you can still actually stay in.
Looking for the original properties? Here’s my complete Season 1 booking list.
Well, that didn’t take long! Jo Franco, Megan Batoon and Luis Ortiz are back with eight more episodes of The World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals, scouring the globe for places to stay in the show’s three categories: Luxury, Budget and Unique.
Vacation rentals have always been my preferred way to stay when I travel, but the properties on this show take that idea considerably further. These aren’t just places to sleep while you visit the destination. Some of them are the destination, the kind of places interesting enough that I’d plan an entire trip around staying there.
So, naturally, I researched the heck out of Season 2. Below you’ll find the complete episode guide, every property I could track down and the booking links so you can actually stay in them yourself.
Which one would you plan a trip around?
Choosing a vocation rental because it’s close to the sights is touristy. Choosing the destination because of the vacation rental is touristish.
Netflix’s World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals Season 2
Season 2 sticks with the same formula: Unique, Budget and Luxury vacation rentals, with Jo, Megan and Luis taking turns choosing properties in each category.
Because the season was filmed during the pandemic, the show stays much closer to home this time, with many of the featured properties located in the United States. But “closer to home” definitely doesn’t mean boring. There are still some seriously weird, wonderful and wildly expensive places on this list.
And if you discover that Netflix and you have slightly different definitions of “budget,” you are not alone. I also made a list of Amazing Vacation Rentals for Regular People, featuring unusual places to stay that don’t require a Netflix-sized travel budget.
(S2E1) Episode 1: Super Modern Stays
BUDGET – The Schwartz House – Two Rivers, Wisconsin, United States
UNIQUE – Invisible House – Joshua Tree, California, United States – Check the price →
LUXURY – The Glass House – New Caanan, Connecticut, United States
(S2E2) Episode 2: Destination Weddings
LUXURY – Sunstone Villa Winery – Santa Ynez, California, United States
BUDGET – Cayo Loco – Eleuthera, Bahamas – Check the price →
UNIQUE – Casa San Jose – San Miguel de Allende, Mexico
(S2E3) Episode 3: Cabin Life
UNIQUE – Camp Rush – Adirondacks, New York, United States (Unfortunately, this property is no longer being rented, but it is for sale, if you have $5.5 million burning a hole in your pocket!)
LUXURY – Pa Gomo Estate – Telluride, Colorado, United States. This house was sold at auction for $19,5 million, and is no longer a vacation rental.
BUDGET – The Sequoia House – Cazadera, California, United States. No longer operating as a vacation rental.

It helps support my travel habit (and this site). Affiliate relationships don’t determine what I recommend. I only share places and products I genuinely think are worth your time and money.

Do You Agree?
Jo, Megan and Luis found some pretty incredible places, but did they really find the most amazing vacation rentals? Which one would you actually plan a trip around? And which property do you think should have made the show? Seriously, tell me in the comments. I want more places for my own wish list.
Personally, I’m still disappointed that the Eco Friendly episode didn’t include one of the Earthships outside Taos, New Mexico. How do you make an episode about unusual, eco-friendly places to stay and not go there?
The best vacation rentals aren’t just somewhere to sleep between sightseeing stops. Sometimes, they’re the reason to take the trip. That’s what I loved about The World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals in the first place, and it’s still what I’m hunting for whenever I travel.
If you’re similarly obsessed with unique places to stay, unforgettable things to do and travel experiences actually worth going out of your way for, that’s pretty much what Touristish is here for.
And if you want the good stuff delivered instead of hoping you remember to come back, join the Touristish email list. I’ll send you the places I find that make me immediately start checking airfare.

Great Post!
Thanks, Dominic!
Great post! Thank you for sharing this list!
Thanks, Angie!
Can I submit my rental for consideration? If so, how?!
Hi Lacey! This is a list from the Netflix TV series “The World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals”, and I am not affiliated with their show. I think to be considered to be on their show, you would need to contact their producers, and I’m not sure how you would go about doing that.
I have my own list at amazing vacation rentals at https://touristish.com/vacation-rentals-regular-people/ , but only recommend places I’ve actually stayed that have blown my mind! :-) If you send me the link to your rental, I can consider staying next time I’m traveling through your area!

Thanks, Chelsia!
We booked the Forrest Lodge property near Portland and Mt Hood after we saw the show. Thanks for compiling all this info. Hopefully we can book more amazing rentals soon!
That’s awesome!! I hope to get to these properties myself someday! I’m so glad you found this useful!
You are a gem for researching and sharing all of these! Thank you so much!
Thank you for all of the effort on sharing locations. It’s very disappointing seeing that Camp Rush and the Sequoia Cabin are both no longer available, having been sold. If you have a moment, please add a note to those.
