There are some exceptionally creative Florida Airbnbs out there that make arriving at your destination half the fun. Never mind staying at a ritzy hotel or expensive inn when you could be sleeping in a treehouse, cozying up in a picturesque cabin, or even float off to dreamland in a houseboat all to yourself. If that last option sounded particularly enticing to you, then definitely check out this list of floating Airbnbs in Florida.

Perfect for solo trips, weekend getaways with your bae, or even a group trip with your besties, these floating rentals let you wake up with views you would never find anywhere else. The best part is that most of them are pretty affordable, especially if you split the cost between friends.

So, grab your swimsuits along with your pillows, and get ready to set sail on one of the best overnight stays you’ve ever had at these awesome floating Sunshine State rentals.
