Stay in a Lunar-themed Airbnb for Only $11 to Celebrate the Moon Landing

Cailey Rizzo

In honor of the 50th anniversary of man landing on the moon, five hosts on Airbnb are offering their lunar-esque homes for only $11 per night.

Each of the homes, from Scotland to New Zealand, have a connection to the moon. And best of all, guests can get into the lunar spirit for only $11.

In New Zealand, there’s a home that was built to resemble the Apollo Lunar Module used when launching Apollo 11. The home is located in a dark sky zone and has a clear Perspex roof so visitors can see the stars from their bed. It’s the perfect destination for travelers who are all about the view. The $11 rate is available September 13-15 and 27-29, 2019.
