While there are plenty of reasons to visit the state of Georgia, Atlanta surely ranks near the top. The city’s infectious mix of Southern character, food, and history make it a great destination.
You can really make memories in Atlanta by staying in an Airbnb, as they’re often more than just a place to sleep. Whether you’re after luxury rentals in Atlanta or an Airbnb in Downtown Atlanta, you’ll find it on the platform.
To ensure that these are the best Airbnbs in Atlanta, we’ve only considered properties with superhosts and/or Airbnb Plus status. In case you’re unfamiliar, superhosts are Airbnb hosts recognized for their well-reviewed service and accommodations, while Airbnb Plus listings are exclusive properties that the platform has verified through in-person inspection.
Secluded Intown Treehouse
Staying in a treehouse Airbnb in Atlanta may sound a little out there, but it guarantees a memorable trip. Surrounded by trees, you’ll almost forget that you’re in the northern suburbs of Atlanta – but this Airbnb is indeed in a residential neighborhood, with plenty of places to get food just a short drive away.
Atmosphere is a major part of the treehouse’s appeal, as it looks like it’s been pulled straight from a storybook. Rope bridges connect three elevated platforms that contain the different rooms and spaces of the treehouse. Sitting in the center is the bedroom with a double bed, which you can roll out onto a small open-air platform through the glass doors. On either side of that is a cozy sitting room and a hammock deck, which are both perfect for reading or just chilling out.
As for the practical aspects, the treehouse does have its own bathroom facilities, but they’re about a 30-second walk away in the basement of the main house. Understandably, amenities are a little more basic here, though you do get fans and a mattress warmer for temperature control, a microwave, and Wi-Fi.
Bright Carriage House Studio
If you really want to see one of the best Atlanta Airbnbs, check out this fantastic apartment in Virginia Highland, a lively neighborhood east of Midtown. This area is known for its cool cafes, cocktail bars, and vibrant restaurant scene.
There’s a lot to like about this studio apartment, starting with its bright and colorful interior. Though it is a studio meant for only two guests, it’s quite a roomy apartment that cleverly creates private spaces. For instance, a useful desk helps separate the queen bed from the living area. Here you’ll find a sofa and TV, as well as a larger desk area for those who need to get work remotely.
Although this apartment doesn’t have a kitchen, there is a small pantry cupboard with a coffee maker, refrigerator, and microwave to help with breakfast. Outside is a nice terrace overlooking the backyard that you share with the family house of superhost Suzanne. You also get the essential amenities as well as some bonuses, such as Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and streaming services like HBO Max, Amazon Prime Video, and Hulu.
One-Bedroom Apartment Retreat in East Atlanta

As for shopping and restaurants, lively Little Five Points is just down the road.
What makes this Airbnb Plus so special is its versatility. The apartment is designed with accessibility in mind, making it easy to get inside and around the living space. While it only has a king bed, meaning it can’t sleep more than two adults, it can accommodate parents traveling with toddlers or babies. Superhosts Andrew and Phoebe provide family-friendly amenities such as a travel crib, a highchair, and stair gates.
You should have no trouble relaxing in this apartment. The living area features a long sofa for watching TV, and you also have chairs on the porch and a hammock in the backyard.

Romantic Treehouse With Hot Tub
Yes, there’s actually more than one option for an Atlanta treehouse Airbnb. This one is an easy 10-minute drive from Atlanta Airport, putting you in the tranquil middle-class suburb of East Point. It’s a little southwest of Atlanta, but still only a 15-minute drive from Downtown.
While it may be a treehouse, you’re not exactly roughing it here. Simply looking at the quality of the queen bed and the lavish decor inside will tell you that this is no ordinary treehouse.

Intown Emu Ranch With Themed Gardens
Choose this Atlanta Airbnb if you only need one or two private bedrooms rather than an entire house or apartment to yourself. What’s interesting is that you can take one or two private rooms, depending on the size of your group. Each room just has a queen bed, though, so you’ll need to be comfortable sharing with your travel companions if you have more than one.
This Airbnb is inside the home of superhost Barry in East Atlanta, one of the trendiest parts of the city. Just down the road is East Atlanta Village, where you’ll find restaurants, clubs, and a friendly farmers market.

Bamboo Forest Treehouse on Alpaca Farm
It seems a lot of people are tempted by the idea of spending a night in a treehouse, as this is one of the most wish-listed Airbnbs in the world and has been featured on various TV shows. With one look at this awesome treehouse surrounded by a forest of bamboo, you’ll immediately see why.
While this treehouse is in the residential neighborhood of East Atlanta, the property it’s on is actually a working farm, providing a peaceful, rural atmosphere. The restaurants and bars in East Atlanta Village are just a short drive away, though – which is useful to know, as the only kitchen essentials in the treehouse are a small fridge, a coffee maker, and some drinking water.
The treehouse can fit up to four guests, but it’s not an especially large place to stay. Upstairs is a small sleeping loft with a queen bed, while down in the living area is a sofa bed for two. There’s also a swinging rope Bali bed down under the treehouse, which isn’t meant for overnight use but is the perfect spot for chilling out during the day.

You also have the benefit of a fully outfitted kitchen, complete with a stove, oven, microwave, fridge, and dishwasher.

Cozy Historic Bungalow in Cabbagetown
It’s hard to resist a rental with as much character as this 1890s millhouse. This Atlanta Airbnb Plus may look conventional from the street, but it has a nice variety of quirks inside that really make it special.
The Airbnb is close to Downtown Atlanta in the neighborhood of Cabbagetown, a diverse area with an artsy side. There are loads of places to get food nearby, whether you want burgers or brunch. You won’t necessarily need to eat out, though, as the bungalow has a full kitchen with a stove, oven, microwave, and refrigerator.
