Need some alone time? We totally understand, everyone needs some time to themselves to collect their thoughts, regroup or just chill out.

Unfortunately, that can be hard to do at home. Sometimes, you just need to get away from all the distractions of daily live and unwind.

These three properties available for rent on Airbnb are just what you’re looking for. There’s a silo-style studio in Massachusetts, a pyramid-shaped getaway in Iceland, and an adobe-style getaway among the boulders in California.

Enjoy your time to yourself!
