Vacations in the concrete bunker or in the 10 soccer fields large animation club can be made also. It is just less charming and relaxing. Spending days off (no matter whether it’s sunny or rainy) can be fun, be remembered for a long time, make the people you tell about your destination speechless, and: be affordable! You always have to save a bit, I already know. In part 1 of the series, I already introduced you to unusual vacation homes that you don’t want to move out of. Now I’ve put together a second part of my Bucket List – with insider tips that have a lot of character and inner values. Have fun being inspired and happy wanderlust!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ilmatar Airplane Lodge, Finnland<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
\"Ilmatar<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

Vacation at the airport? Doesn’t sound very sexy at first – but if it’s your own and you don’t have to pay for expensive kerosene, then it sounds like a precision landing, doesn’t it? I had airplanes in my stomach when I discovered this vacation home. The jet in the Ilmatar Airplane Lodge no longer has a permit to fly, but you can check in and enjoy a down-to-earth vacation there – including your own hangar with a fancy interior and whirlpool. This unusual vacation apartment was built around a decommissioned 35-seater SAAB340b passenger plane. The passenger plane has been transformed into a high-quality accommodation and lounge area where our guests can experience a touch of luxury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

From the cockpit, there is a captain’s suite where guests can admire the night sky. The interior of the aircraft is equipped with a sofa bed, a lounge area and an aircraft sauna. Next to the aircraft is the villa building, also known as the control tower, which serves as additional accommodation and lounge area. The villa has two separate bedrooms, a well-equipped kitchen, a living area, sanitary facilities and a sauna with a traditional wood-burning stove – and of course the outdoor hot tub. In total, up to eight people would be able to board in this unique accommodation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Unusual vacation homes such as the lmatar Airplane Lodge are particularly inviting to check in.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n\n\n\n

I have a soft spot for unusual vacation accommodation, and this recent discovery has immediately awakened my wanderlust and my desire for a poolside wine date with a fabulous view. Because here the hosts have interpreted the theme of retirement in a different way. Gondolas always have a good view on their normal route – in the Cablewayroom (from 320 euros) you can enjoy this privilege on vacation while the cabin stands still and relaxes. The location: on the plateau of Selvino-Aviatico, near Bergamo in Italy. As it would be a bit cramped in a gondola like this on its own, a cozy extension was bolted onto the roof, a charming terrace was pulled ashore and a flirty pool was placed in front of the gondola’s front door. Phew – what a great place for a crispy wine date!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

In my personal wanderlust thoughts, I’ve often been ready for the island, but never in England, or better yet, England. Let’s change that with this bucket list vacation home in a suburb of Devonshire that just popped up on my travel wish list. At first I thought it was a footballers’ villa – but luckily you can rent it for private vacations. And, fittingly, there’s room for a whole soccer team. Which also helps with the budget – if you divide it by 11, everyone can play along financially on vacation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A total of 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a light-flooded atrium, games room and fitness room await discovery. And all packed into a really fancy design – the time-out tactic works, doesn’t it? The architecture embedded in the natural surroundings is truly unique and, despite its down-to-earth design, is an eye-catcher ready for take-off – the leisure penalty kick must be in there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My highlight: the large garden. A dream team consisting of an outdoor barbecue with pizza oven, fire pit, lounge area, bar and cozy jacuzzi or hot tub. Here, it’s not the round that has to go into the square, but me into the round. I could transport myself there directly with an all-star world selection of wines and dribble through a time-out according to all the rules of vacation home vacation art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New wanderlust soundtrack. When I clicked through the pictures and stumbled across this charming getaway in Portugal, I immediately had Pony by Ginuwine in my head. If you swipe to the end, you’ll understand why. The signals sent out by the lemon retreat in Valpedre, east of Porto, are as flirty as the undertone of the song. The small, unique vacation home is part of the Oporto Lemon Farm, which also offers the Lemon Villa and the Lemon House. In the middle of a lemon grove, you check into a wooden and glass bungalow with its own pool, a double bed, kitchen, bathroom and small room. Total area: 25 m\u00b2. Simply charming, isn’t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s how I would interpret it – and how sexy would it be to go from one Portugal wine flirt to the next while cooling off in the pool? The fact that a pony from the associated farm might even drop by makes the soundtrack almost sweet again, doesn’t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Villa Filanda, Lake Como, Italy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

Actually, the goal of this blog is to present affordable insider tips for home bar and travel. But I like to dream about beautiful pools, and that’s why money doesn’t play a role in today’s tip for #journeythursday. The refreshing pool right on Lake Como in Italy is playing its own film version of Shades of Blue, and I’d love to be captivated by Italian white wines there. The pool is part of Villa Filanda, a very charmingly restored 17th-century silk spinning mill. Stone cladding, high vaulted ceilings and an antique chimney alternate with classy interiors in an industrial look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>
\n

High ceilings, large windows with a view of the lake, cozy furniture: Villa Filanda is the perfect place to spend your vacation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
\n

The style: industrial chic.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The villa is located on foot on the lake in the old town of Brienno, a small village 17 km north of Como and 7 km from the highway. Filanda accommodation can accommodate 8 adults plus 2 children in 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms on request. The villa (400 sqm) has 4 air-conditioned bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and access to the lake with private promenade.

\n

The former spinning mill factory was renovated with great sensitivity and transformed into a vacation oasis, including a dream pool directly on the lake.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

If the 8 guests find room to share the 2500 euros daily rent, it is even almost affordable. But always in view: the lake. In addition, a nice garden oasis, in which you can plate up regional delicacies, and dream with a glass of wine and a view of the water. Oh wait, we’re already dreaming anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Mallorca they would now say: Lecko mio, I just say ciao bella, new wanderlust amore! There is again a new candidate from the series unusual vacation homes for vacation. And this architectural pool flirt called Tenuta Molino dei Giusi in Italy, more precisely Liguria, was direct infatuation. The family project consists of three accommodations, and I would beam straight to the Eremo house. A little nest for two on the top of a hill with an unobstructed view of the sea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The whole is a charming mix of historical, renovated building with modern annex. All divided into two areas: Living area with kitchen and sofa plus sleeping area overlooking the Gulf of Imperia, where even morning grouches are likely to get up motivated. And how indulgent to the eye this square, practical, good deep blue bathing spot simply is. I just see myself speed dating by the fancy pool with a selection of regional wines. Cool down below, cool down above – if the vacation enjoyment doesn’t run smoothly, I don’t know what will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Does joy arise there? The beautiful: It does not always have to be the all-inclusive palace, where you can get lost on top – you can also discover the country with a little more privacy – own beach included.

The cool location, which mixes a historic villa in the forest with a newly built spa annex, goes by the simple name of Villa Belmont.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Built in 1915, the listed villa, whose loving restoration and modernization was completed in 2023, presents itself charmingly arrived in the here and now. On the first steps inside the villa, hand-picked Solingen marble tiles emphasize the elegant character of the house. The first floor is the heart of the villa – with cooking, living and dining areas complete with a fully equipped kitchen, a free-standing kitchen unit, a heavy wooden table and a lounge with an inset fireplace. My wine quirk would also be catered for: a wine room behind a black steel glass door is available for enjoying a fine drop. That’s what I’m talking about!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You think MLB hitters have the perfect swing? Maybe, but: This picture-perfect vacation home impression with this beautiful swing can be experienced in real life – and therefore landed very freshly on my personal bucket list. The unusual vacation home is located in a rural hamlet in the southwestern tip of the Hautes-Alpes department in southern France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La Maison du M\u00fbrier is a truly unique vacation home – an old stone farmhouse with modern architectural elements, furnished with design classics and collectibles by Jean Prouv\u00e9, Charles & Ray Eames, Hans Wegner and contemporary pieces by designers such as Jasper Morrisson, Terence Woodgate, Tom Dixon, Wouter Scheublin, Martino Gamper. The house consists of the villa on the upper first floor and a separate open studio with its own kitchen, bathroom and outdoor area. There is another separate area on the first floor where the hosts stay to make sure everything is running smoothly and to be there for guests if they have questions or need help. They are on site, according to the website, but discreet and respectful of privacy. It’s a trade-off you can make for such a uniquely decorated location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given the location, you’re more likely to have a date with tractors than fancy sports cars, but it’s precisely for this carefree tranquility that you look for accommodation that offers everything you need as a curious bon vivant and pool dater. The brains behind the project are a photographer Jason and stylist Keiko. It took them over 12 years to restore La Maison du M\u00fbrier. I think the effort was more than worth it, don’t you? Thanks to five bedrooms, there’s room for all guests, and the living area has a cheeky modern design. The kitchen has all the amenities you need for a cooking party with friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, the unusual cottage has a cellar bar with an original stone vault from the 17th century. The Honest Bar on trust is stocked with various spirits and syrups made with local herbs, fruits and berries. There’s also a Magimix ice cream maker, if you’re in the mood to make homemade ice cream with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Stuff there is. But there’s more to whet your appetite here: the outdoor dining and cooking area has a wood-burning oven for homemade pizzas and a charcoal grill for a barbecue. The region averages 300 days of sunshine a year, so nothing stands in the way of a barbecue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Six-pack and vacation – that goes together without much effort, beer or the corresponding abs – if you check in like here at Casa de Volta. This exclusive vacation location is the latest flirt on my bucket list, located in the heart of the Comporta – Gr\u00e2ndola – Melides triangle, about 1.5 hours from Lisbon and has six tastefully designed suites on offer, distributed around an inner courtyard. Plus, of course, plenty of privacy. Five rooms accommodate up to 2 guests each and are in the main house, while the sixth room sits lonely at the main entrance to the house, perhaps reserved for those seeking peace and quiet. In uniquem ambience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Casa da Volta is an architectural interpretation of country living, designed in collaboration with the renowned Lisbon firm Promot\u00f3rio Architects and the newly formed Silva Cravo Architects. Together, they have woven modern minimalism and a distinct contemporary feel with nostalgic timelessness. Guests are also provided with personalized tips and individually organized experiences to help them explore the country’s culture – in the form of activities, outdoor experiences, cultural as well as by the glass or plate. By the way, the Casa da Volta is always booked exclusively in full – no matter how many rooms are occupied in the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Casa da Volta (literally: “House of Return”) is located on a 20-hectare hilly site – in which the builders have also found the perfect place for an architecturally very flirtatious design pool.

And again a location that is freshly hopped on my bucket list. You know how it is to sit down on the 4 letters – but here I wouldn’t bring the backside into play, but take a seat in the K\u00e4bi. That’s the name of one of the charming design vacation homes at Maidla Resort, about 45 minutes from Estonia’s capital Tallinn. I immediately fell in love with this accommodation. Those who know me a bit know: Jacuzzi with nature cinema view and a nice wine to go with it – wanderlust infatuation is awakened. The source of inspiration for the Nature Villa K\u00c4BI came directly from nature. The striking appearance, which resembles that of a pine cone, was achieved by using wooden shingles. Inside you’ll find everything you need: king size bed, fireplace, shower and the outdoor hot tub. So I could happily beam myself to the Estonian Jacuuzi with a glass of red wine right now – think Santa would feel right at home there, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Okay, okay, in the Abi exam, the match would probably fail for missing the topic, but I am on my blog so free to classify the upcoming small hotel as an unusual vacation home on time. And with that, the Pollicastro Boutique Hotel gets to play along here. The unique location in the heart of the old town of Lecce in Italy has a real underground highlight. And that’s exactly where the cool twist lies. Underground, as an adjective, is always associated with the highest mark of negativity. In this case, however, it is a vacation accommodation that is underground cool with the best conscience. You can book a suite that has its own bathing paradise hidden in the basement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You almost have to reckon with such a gem, as the hotel is housed in a 16th century palace – which did like to have one or two hidden luxuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The clear gem at Pollicastro Boutique Hotel that flashed me is part of the Grand Deluxe Nymphaeum Suite. Sounds decently epic, doesn’t it? Even the entrance gives off a palace vibe. Beneath the signature 16th-century “lunette” ceiling, which creates an enchanting play of light and shadow, is a wide, modern bed – completely on the cutting edge of today’s design language and thus fiercely contrasting with its historic base. A heart for contrasts. With its curves following the curves of the room, it provides a cozy harmony, completed by the large fireplace. Then it’s down and buckle up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One thing is certain: The tower here could easily be part of “Game of Thrones” or its new spin-off “House of the Dragon. But it’s also safe to say that this location should be the setting for my next vacation. It’s even ready for series production, because the Tainaron Blue Retreat is located in the tower on the Peloponnese peninsula. If I’m honest, it’s not a pure vacation home, of course, but it’s not a big hotel either – and you could book the whole tower together with your family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

Tainaron Blue Retreat is housed in a stone tower from the early 19th century and offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the southernmost slope of the Taygetos Mountains and the sea. In transforming this three-story tower into a guesthouse, the hosts first encountered significant difficulties. They had to adapt to the specific features of Mani’s architecture while ensuring that the interiors kept pace with modern aesthetics. The structure inside and outside the tower had to remain unchanged, while all modern facilities and infrastructure had to be accommodated imperceptibly. The result is simply fierce to behold. Tainaron Blue Retreat now offers guests the quaint and unique experience of staying in a tower that dates back to the past, with its traditional narrow staircases and wooden ladders – but at the same time having everything at the start of what makes today’s vacation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To soak up a nice portion of the Mediterranean, you can jump into the gorgeous pool or hike to the two nearby beaches. In the in-house restaurant, you can enjoy a menu based on traditional recipes that takes you through Greece’s culinary treasures. The wine glasses are also filled seriously – “Daydrinking with a view like this” is then unbeatable anyway. And you don’t have to worry about kites disturbing the vacation mood – they are forbidden to land there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The small stone houses are about 10 meters apart, each with its own terrace and a beautiful sea view. Each guest house is equipped with a bedroom and bathroom. One of them also has a small anteroom with 2 brick sofas and a kitchenette. The view whets your appetite?

\n\n\n\n

The bad thing is that a Rosamunde Pilcher film has already been shot at the location. The good thing is that they won’t come back and you won’t have to worry about it. If romance comes up in this clubhouse, it’s probably one of the few places where that’s okay for a minute. At The Island, Newquay you can fulfill your dream of vacationing on a private island – rather less Maldives cuddling than James Bond villain headquarters feeling. This property is located high up on a rugged islet off the British coast of Cornwall. It feels endlessly removed from everything, yet you’re just a stone’s throw from the mainland in Newquay Bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The restoration of the house took eight months, now beach feeling in airy heights awaits you there. At high tide, the island is surrounded by water and completely cut off from the mainland. The only way up is via the steep steps cut into the rock face and the suspension bridge. Unusual vacation homes come with unusual accesses. Breathless, free from giddiness. Sorry. Back to good taste. For this, there is a specially made large BBQ outdoor grill in the garden, and inside you will find a bar room. If you have any special wishes regarding refrigerator and bar filling, you can let us know before you arrive. And just in case, wifi is also on board up there.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

A vacation on a houseboat still sounds too dry to you? Then take a look at Amsterdam. Because the bright red Lightship, which is located just a few minutes from the historic city center, has really well-designed inner values on board. The design and transformation from a working ship into a family home was a transformation that took owners Vivian and Jeff 11 years to complete. And to celebrate, they thought: Let’s have guests come in for a look. Now you can treat yourself to a bed & breakfast experience in the seventy-year-old British lighthouse and fireboat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Exit? It is difficult to leave this unusual vacation home (boat).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Looks like design office, but is inside the ship. Cool contrast.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\"Lightship<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The two suites, engine room and upper deck were designed by an award-winning architect. Each suite has a comfortable king size bed, a private bathroom and a minibar for free use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

B&B guests have their own entrance and a huge sunny terrace on the front deck of the boat, with great views over the industrial city and the lighthouse. Check out the pictures of the interiors – could have been straight outta design hotel. Who’s coming on board?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Wow. Just: wow. I already fell in love with FourElements – living by Berger last year. And I think: A chalet now simply counts as a vacation home. The unconventional location with several chalets with a natural open-air cinema has been at the top of my bucket list ever since. Why? Because just by looking at the photos, you can see exactly how the vacation would go. Best buddy or best friend, fireplace on, whiskey, wine, and patronage on. The trip to Styria is this thoughtful design chalet unique high above a mountain river gorge is made for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FourElements \u2013 living by Berger<\/strong> consists of 3 fancy chalets under the motto fire, water and air. How cool must that be, wine tasting in the evening by the fireplace with a view of the Salza (private beach is at the start, for all those who do not know the cold when bathing), in the morning to wake up better go rafting on the river \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
\n

\u2026 and then into the hot tub and say hello to the Jacuzzi? A powerful indulgence. Everything around is green, the river rushes below – stress has a break there.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Unusual vacation homes can sometimes look like a design showroom. In the Four Elements, however, it looks really cozy.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

On almost 100 square meters in Chalet Luft are distributed, for example, bedroom, living room, dining room with fireplace, kitchen and bathroom. On a window sofa you have an outstanding view of the water. Who needs a TV? One floor below is the spa with sauna and pool. And a fireplace, if you want to get a little cozy at night. It’s allowed, isn’t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Am Ende immer die entscheidende Frage: Wie lange muss man daf\u00fcr sein Sparschwein f\u00fcttern? Schon regelm\u00e4\u00dfig, aber ein verl\u00e4ngertes Wochenende (das Chalet ist ab 3 \u00dcbernachtungen buchbar) sollte als Auszeits-Geschenk f\u00fcr sich und die bessere H\u00e4lfte dann drin sein.

\n\n\n\n

Quick prize question: Where would it be emphatically impressive to put a hot tub? For example, in a place where you have a good chance of bathing under the aurora borealis. Such a Jacuzzi would be, wouldn’t it? That’s why I instantly fell in love with the Panorama Glass Lodge on Iceland. And the island is at the top of my “must-visit-again-longer” list anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
\"Panorama
\u00a9 Panorama Glass Lodge Iceland<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The special: The thoroughly designed hut has a glazed panoramic area – safe that there is also the bed. Directly under the stars. So if you check in there, you shouldn’t be too wary of romance. While watching the sun, clouds, stars and sky at play, you can relax and inhale a wine and enjoy the Natura us of the Front Row.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
\"Panorama<\/figure>
\n

Cool design, even cooler furniture and an ice-cold impressive view: I want to go there.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Front row at the outdoor movie theater: Unusual vacation homes like Panorama Glass Lodge make traveling fun after all.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\"Panorama<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The lodge is located only 30 minutes from Reykjavik, in Hvalfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur, a remote place by the sea. So you should be able to handle a portion of seclusion – but then you can immerse yourself undisturbed in the many facets of Iceland.   In a small, fully equipped kitchen you will find two electric stoves, a refrigerator and a toaster, a spacious dining table and a luxurious rain shower. Can you stand it, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then there’s the small, wooden whirlpool in front of the door. A place that should quickly become addictive. No matter what the weather is like around it. Also clear: Iceland is not the cheapest island, you have to leave out the one or other times eating out at home and save for it, but for that you also get priceless experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Windmill Suffolk<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I’ll admit: You really have to use a lot of imagination to come up with the idea of such an individual vacation home when looking at the 125-year-old original building. But the owners and the Beech Architects team had plenty of imagination (fortunately), and transformed the 18-meter-high windmill into a design accommodation princess in all the best Disney romanticism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The
\u00a9 The Windmill Suffolk<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The Windmill Suffolk now has 2 bedrooms, kitchen, a bathroom and a panoramic pod for special views at the top. And future princes don’t have to climb up hair either, just walk into The Windmill Suffolk to the big front door. That’s something you really deserve on your vacation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
