If you enjoy perusing the most interesting, unique Airbnb listings as much as you do staying in one, this is for you. Airbnb just dropped its highlights for summer 2023, and we have a BC stay that made the list of the top ten most wish-listed listings of all time. So buckle up!
Believe it or not, the charming Cob Cottage on Mayne Island was hand-sculpted using all sustainable, natural materials local to Vancouver Island.

Guests have access to the entire one-bedroom, one-bathroom home and surrounding property, which is located just a 10-minute walk away from the beach.
One visitor commented that guests can “sleep to the sound of frogs” and “wake up to the songs of birds.” So if a fairytale stay is what you’re after, you’ll definitely find it here!
