One of the biggest reasons we love our vacations is because of the fancy places we can conveniently park ourselves in. There is nothing better than a perfect hotel stay which can influence our mood and energy big time. Good hotel stays dictate how much time we will spend roaming around the city, and can also have the power to reduce your sight-seeing time.
Movies and TV series are great influencers when it comes to picking a hotel room. If you are a Harry Potter fan, wouldn't you like to stay in a Hogwarts dormitory? If you are a Star Wars fan, wouldn't it be fancy staying in a hotel which looks exactly like the movie?
Well, here is our list of Airbnbs that we have only watched on the screen but would definitely add to our dream list.
1. HAGRID'S HUT
Remember the hut that was a second home for Harry, Ron and Hermione from Harry Potter? Well, they might have been the only ones who could have experienced the warmth of Hagrid's humble abode all this while. But not anymore. A fancy Airbnb in Georgia, US has recently caught the attention of avid Airbnb enthusiasts who are waiting to experience what it's like to stay in Hagrid's home.
The 4.99 rated Airbnb hut holds four adults and features one bedroom with two beds and a bathroom; and a night will cost you around Rs 11,500. It is situated on a private 40-acre location where Potterheads can test their scavenger-hunting skills or can relax by a giant-sized cauldron fire or bird-watch near the pond. One can also opt for nearby sightseeing areas or better, just binge-watch the films with a cold Butterbeer!
2. HARRY POTTER
There are many Harry Potter Airbnbs in the world and though none of them have the actual Floo Powder or Quidditch brooms, these Airbnbs provide exactly the kind of authentic Harry Potter experience you wished for when you read those books (or watched those movies).

The wizarding home is close to the Harry Potter Universal Studio at Orlando, and a one-night stay can cost up to Rs 48,000.
The two-storey home has four themed bedrooms on the ground floor (each representing a House), including the master bedroom and attached bathroom, with a shower and tub, plus a walk-in closet. The second large, private master bedroom with attached private bath (representing the Headmaster’s Office) is located on the second floor.
There are many other Harry Potter-style Airbnbs which are popular across the globe. Here is a look at few of them:

5. PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN
Well, Airbnb called this one 'One of the Most Wishlisted Airbnbs' in a press release in 2021. Why? Well, who doesn't want to stay in a Pirate-style Airbnb? Even if it costs Rs 16,500 per night?
This unique Airbnb is created to reflect a mysterious, island-themed vibe. To create a tropical theme, the property has outdoor decor that includes several crystals, dinosaur fossils, and statues. The property is surrounded by lush green landscapes with waterfalls, ponds and a nearby creek.
Renters can enjoy their stay as the property has multiple swings, hammocks, a fire pit and a rock fireplace. What's more: there is an onsite spa with an outdoor seashell bathtub, a lightshow-equipped hot tub and a cedarwood sauna.
The 1-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom "cottage" guesthouse in California costs Rs 16,500 per night.
6. GAME OF THRONES
If you have ever cried over your inability to experience Game of Thrones in a new way, we found you a solution that will cost you about Rs 13,000 a night, but will end up making you feel like a Lord or Lady of the Apartment. The solution is an ultra-realistic Game of Thrones apartment in Kentucky, US.
