5 Ultra-luxe Ski Homes You Can Rent Right Now for the Holidays on Airbnb

The nights are getting colder, the leaves are starting to change, the birds are packing up their bags for their big trip south. This can only mean one thing: Ski season is almost here.

To help skiers, riders, and snow bunnies alike get ready for the season, Snow Season Central, a ski information website, compiled a list of the world's most over-the-top and luxurious mountainside Airbnbs. To come to its final list, the group explained it "scanned Airbnb maps of many of the world's most luxurious ski resorts, and found the following properties available for 10 days between Dec. 23, 2021, and Jan. 2, 2022."

The only caveat to the list is the fact that these aren't exactly ski bum friendly, with the cheapest option clocking in at just over $23,000 for the 10 days. But, if you've got a little cash to spare, or just want to see how the other half lives, keep scrolling to see five of their Airbnb picks.
