6. Unique retro caravan for two (from USD 91)

Looking for budget long-term accommodations in Brisbane? Then check out this rental. Be prepared for a vintage treat when you book at The Pilot. The 1959 caravan has been totally revamped by a boat builder—and yes, you might wake up thinking you’re at sea. Located next to the owner’s home, you will enter through a private entrance. If you are a digital nomad, it’s good to know that the bed can be collapsed to form two desks. It is a five-minute walk to cafes and the shopping strip. Transport links are close by if you want to get to the city centre. The caravan runs on full power and running water with a gas cooker and a mini-fridge.
