We had to throw an opulent, over-the-top option into the mix and this four-bedroom, glass-covered 19th-century villa fit the bill. The home in the 3rd arrondissement has nearly endless space to spread out, including the light-filled, top-floor living room (pictured) with a pool table and wet bar, the minimalist kitchen and dining room, the spa with a sauna and indoor hot tub, and home gym. The bedrooms are perfect for large groups or two families traveling together, with three queen bedrooms and a bunk room with space for four. An Airbnb Luxe, you can also opt into pre-stocking and housekeeping, at an additional fee, and your trip designer (included in the nightly rate) can help you coordinate excursions, much like a hotel concierge would, or a nanny to join you during your stay if you're bringing kids along.

Finding accommodations for under $150 per night is nearly impossible in Paris—but this apartment on the border of the 18th arrondissement, near the Sacré-Coeur, comes very close. Yes, it's a studio and a tight squeeze, but it fits everything you could need into its small space: you have a double bed, desk area, closet for hanging clothes, dining area, and kitchenette (complete with a mini-fridge, induction double burners, and a Nespresso machine). You'll also have access to the apartment's shared garden, with planters and vines and a small table to sit at while enjoying your morning coffee. As an Airbnb Plus, the apartment has passed an IRL inspection and has strong Wi-Fi, easy check-in, and toiletries like shampoo on hand so you can save space in your carry-on.

The architecture of this one-bedroom apartment is jaw-dropping, thanks to ship-like wooden beams and striking decor, from the robin's egg floor-to-ceiling cabinets in the living room to the completely tiled miniscule-but-functional kitchen. There's even a Juliet balcony with views of the street below. Located in the 2nd arrondissement, you'll be within walking distance to the Palais Garnier opera house and the Louvre.

Nothing makes a place feel more like home than a room full of live plants, right? Embrace the “live like a local” vibe and imagine your potential second life as a Parisian, waking up each morning in the apartment's 18th-century inspired bedroom, walking out into the plant-filled living room and then into your kitchen for some coffee. There's also an indoor fireplace for cozy evenings in, and for families, a crib and children's toys. (There is no air-conditioning, though, so be wary of booking in the depths of summer.) While you might be tempted to spend most of your time here, there's plenty right outside your door in the 5th arrondissement, with the Jardin du Luxembourg, the Sorbonne's hopping Rue Saint-Jacques, and the Seine only a few blocks away.
