Broke-Ass Lodging for Bad-Ass Travelers

Mad props go to the ever-fabulous and inspirational Emily from Once Wed for turning me onto Air B&B today.  Air B&B is a vacation rental company that rents out some ultrafabby spaces, from private rooms to entire residences for PENNIES.  Now I've heard of couch-surfing before, but I'd much rather have my own space, especially if on a romantic vacation with my honey.

The site features listings that are reputation-based, allowing for comments and ratings by past renters, so you can get the dish before your commit.  But chances are, you're going to have a better experience than at a hotel, and you can cook your own meals for double-savings bonus.... This shiz is too good not to share!

Could you imagine honeymooning in one of these spots? I'm drooooooooling.  They even have eco-options.... le swoon!
The Mushroom Dome Cabin in Aptos (Santa Cruz), CA - $75/night

La Torre Bed and Breakfast in Spain - $55/night

Manhattan Valley Central Park North View - $90/night

Parva Domus, Cap D'Ail, Provence France - $110/night

I mean, come ON people! Who's with me? I'm already trolling for good flight deals just to have an excuse to try this out. Let's all go rent a villa in the Alps, aight?  I'm off to pack my bags now.....

Holy cow! I think that Mushroom Cottage has our names all over it for the 'mini-moon' we need to fit in between work weeks. Bonus points for the fact that it's halfway between our wedding site, and the conference I need to attend the week following our wedding. I'm gonna check it out right now! Thanks for the head's up!

This is awesome! I can't wait to check out their website when I get back from work!

Awesome locations!

I think that the most affordable and coolest place I've stayed at was a little hostel in Santorini Island, Greece. It wasn't listed anywhere in travel guides - I'm just the kind of person who shows up, asks around and always manages to find a place to stay.

5 Euro/night ~ 6 if you want sheets ;)
