This Texas Ranch Was One of TikTok’s Favorite Airbnb’s in 2024

Social media is becoming ever more important to trip planning. According to the travel industry news site PhocusWire, a whopping 57 percent of people use social media to plan at least some part of their trips. And while there are plenty of posts out there that could inspire your next vacation, Airbnb recently compiled a list of properties that went viral on TikTok in 2024 — and this 100-acre ranch in Beaumont, Texas, will make you want to book a trip to the Lone Star State ASAP.

Beaumont is located about an hour and a half northeast of Houston near the state’s border with Louisiana on the coastal plains. There are plenty of opportunities to hike, bike, or fish in the area, but this expansive Airbnb makes it hard to want to leave.

“This 7,000-square-foot estate boasts an expansive six-bedroom residence with its very own movie theater and chef’s kitchen,” Airbnb said in a press release obtained by Travel + Leisure. “The space is perfect for families traveling together with multiple living areas so everyone has enough room to unwind.”

However, the real standout aspect of this home is its grounds, which include a private lazy river that guests can float in all day. There’s also a splash pad, a putting green, a basketball court, a tennis/pickleball court, and a gourmet outdoor kitchen — so, there’s really no reason to spend a single minute indoors if you don’t want to.

The home can accommodate up to 16 guests, making it a perfect choice for an extended family getaway or for a group of friends looking to play like kids again, which is likely why it’s quickly become a Guest Favorite and has a solid five-star rating.

“Excellent property for a large group!” one reviewer wrote. “The resort-style pool, pickleball, and volleyball were awesome for our family event. You won’t be sorry if you book this property.”

But this Beaumont ranch isn’t the only Airbnb to make it big on TikTok this year. Other notable properties on the list include the spectacular Oregon Tree House Getaway in Dallas, Oregon; the earthy Private Modern Tree House on Highland Farm in Chilliwack, British Columbia; and the luxe Casa en Mérida Centro in Mérida, Mexico.

So, when you’re ready to explore the world, take your pick from any of these alluring Airbnbs — you don’t even have to post about them if you don’t want to.
