A ferry ride from the Puerto Juarez, just a few minutes from downtown Cancun, Isla Mujeres offers this perfect private getaway. Within the gated quarters of the Seashell house, guests literally live inside of two large shells.

Guests enjoy their own private pool, two king sized beds, and a quick commute to the most famous beaches on the four mile long island. The balcony located on the taller shell overlooks the pool and Caribbean Sea across the street. Be wary of little geckos that wander in and out of the house, but don’t worry, they are friendly!

A 25 minute drive from downtown Galway, guests have the best of both worlds: peace and quiet in a castle by the countryside, and excitement just a short drive away into downtown Galway.

You can find famous clock towers in London, but it’s not often you can rent out a room to stay overnight in one. At St. Pancras Clock Tower, guests can rent out a double bedroom with a living area, dining room, and bathroom for a whole week. Don’t worry – the clock doesn’t hold bells and doesn’t actually ring. Guests enjoy views from the fourth floor of the historical clock tower that connects with Sir George Gilbert Scott’s railway hotel built in 1868. The tower sits just above the St. Pancras railway station.
