The Edge, Modern Cliffside Mansion

We can be millionaires just for one day. As part of Airbnb’s Luxe listings, The Edge in Sydney’s coastal suburb South Coogee is all about living your best life. You could even consider the modern abode a luxury Big Brother house as it sleeps up to 10 people.

The oceanfront villa offers sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean from its lounge areas, rooftop terrace, and all five bedrooms (with balconies!), so no arguments on who has the best views. The Edge is moments away from Coogee Beach, Wylie Baths, but why explore outside when you have it so good in?

Make sure to make the most of it by making a splash in its luminous swimming pool, shaking cocktails in its lounge or having a BBQ dinner party under the stars. At home, social events don’t get better than this.

Welcome to the regal life. Spend time in a place that is literally built on gold, Ballarat and is every bit inspired by its wealth.

Chateau Du Soleil

Keeping in with the French theme is Chateau Du Soleil in Knockrow, New South Wales.

This stone-built luxury property is what you would expect to see as The Bachelor residence, with plenty of space to get active and social with a swimming pool, tennis court, dining areas and spaces to relax (complete with a fireplace). And of course, it wouldn’t be a grand house without its sweeping staircase, wouldn’t it? (Just imagine all the photoshoots you could have!)

It may be a world away from Bryon Bay’s hip scene; however, this European-inspired residence is only moments to the famous beach town with Lennox Head and Ballina also a short drive.

Villa Queen

She’s a Villa Queen.

In a buzzing city, you can find your quiet spot (or mansion) at Villa Queen in Sydney’s famed Woollahra neighbourhood.

But there is plenty of charm to keep you in within the beautifully bright, sophisticated property. The free-flowing layout makes for lazy living in luxury with its lounge, home gym, big kitchen and even piano area worthy of your time.

Its outdoor areas are expansive, with its alfresco dining and pool area a highlight, the setting reminiscent of a Lady Gaga music video so start playing that piano!
