Host Unusual may be headquartered in Essex (Leigh-on-Sea, to be exact), but our reach extends far across the globe. We showcase the world’s most unusual places to stay, so wherever you travel, you won’t be stuck with a bland hotel room.
We currently host unique properties in almost 70 countries – and counting – so there’s already a wonderful wealth to choose from. However, 2025 has been a bumper year for new Host Unusual destinations, and retreats worth writing home about!
Spirit yourselves away to the Balearic island of Menorca, where you’ll discover a soulful villa with dedicated wellness spaces and dreamy views of the sea. Or how about travelling a little further afield, to an Ecuadorean river-sanctuary with luxury chalets, a wine lounge, and abundant tropical nature?
Head to Mauritius for a bucket-list-worthy holiday, in a bubble suite with five-star butler service and an open sky shower, or to Ibiza, where you can stay in a glass-walled Zero Suite at a colourful coastal hotel and become a living piece of art!
Also added to the Host Unusual roster are Saudi Arabia, Costa Rica, Luxembourg, and Vietnam, as well as brand-new regions to discover in established countries (including Mendocino, a ‘must-visit’ artists’ colony on the Californian coast).
So, if you’ve been struggling to decide where in the world to go for your next break, just browse this lovely list – or why not visit our Destinations page and discover a brand-new favourite?
