There are countless reasons to visit Margaret River – from the award-winning wineries and craft breweries to white sand beaches and coastal walks, it’s a town that has it all. If you’re planning a trip to Western Australia from the East Coast – or you’re a Perth local hunting a weekend away – there’s no better way to enjoy everything Margaret River offers from the cosy comfort of one of the area’s many great Airbnbs.
There are hundreds of different private homes, villas, and cabins on Airbnb that serve up the kind of local experience that’s impossible to enjoy from within the uncontroversial, predictable walls of a hotel room. To assist in the decision-making process, we wanted to put together a list of our favourite Airbnbs in Margaret River, all of which promise best-in-class hospitality and a trip you won’t forget in a hurry.
From spectacular views of the Indian Ocean to architectural masterpieces, let’s take a closer look at these special properties.
