The World's Most Amazing Vacation Rentals


From eco-friendly tree houses in Bali, to a natural cave lodge in the Ozarks, the pleasurable series showcases some of the many, and varied, properties that people can rent for their post-COVID travels. Some of the episodes are country-specific; others are designed to highlight the more popular trends in short-term rentals. They all highlight what makes each rental, based on the desired experience, a great alternative to a hostel or hotel.


The World's Most Amazing Vacation Rentals
is a promotional vehicle for each of the properties featured, and it's designed to help reinvigorate the tourism industry, which was decimated by the global pandemic. Much like a travel brochure, it's obvious that everything has been done to highlight the best of what each site has to offer. Nonetheless, the enthusiasm of the hosts, combined with the scenery and local attractions, makes this a fun watch.

As one of the hosts of the popular Netflix show, 'The World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals,' Jo Franco is paving the way for women of color in travel television.

Jo Franco says she feels most alive when she’s jumping in the snow. As a first-generation mixed-race traveler, 29-year-old Franco has been up close and personal with some of the world’s most breathtaking natural wonders, and she considers herself blessed.

Today, I’d only tune in to the Travel Channel if I wanted the shit scared out of me. That’s not because I’m scared of ghosts, but because I’m terrified that the network has been completely taken over by non-stop paranormal TV. Travel Channel has completely stopped exploring the world, and now just pretends to see things that don’t exist.

There are certainly plenty of other great travel reality TV shows, and some appalling ones too, but what I think I’ve really missed are the light and airy travel reality TV of
Great Hotels
or
Xtreme Waterparks
