Book one of these desert chic Coachella Airbnbs for a festival weekend you’ll never forget
As soon as the Coachella lineup dropped (hello, Lana Del Rey and Vampire Weekend), festival-goers started snapping up nearby hotel rooms left and right. That doesn’t mean you’re stuck sleeping in your car for the weekend, though: you can still book some gorgeous Coachella Airbnbs just a few blocks away from the action. There’s an option for every kind of summer music festival attendee, too.
If you’re ready for a weekend-long party, you might want to reserve one of the options with a saltwater pool, outdoor grill, and massive entertainment room. Just looking for a quiet respite from the pulsating festival grounds? Retreat to one of the quaint one-bedroom homes or pint-sized casitas on this list to get some much-needed R&R in between sets.
