Some of the cosiest tiny houses fit for a post lockdown escape

If you are looking for a place to unwind with beautiful views on an off-grid adventure a tiny house (or cottage) is for you. 

Tiny houses are gaining popularity and it’s not difficult to see why. We all yearn for weekend escapes – and we want to do it somewhere unique and close to nature, without sacrificing creature comforts. And who isn’t dreaming of that post-lockdown getaway when we’ll be able to skip town, stoke a fire, and get cosy?
To get more familiar with the tiny house trend, we reached out to Aimee Stanton a Tiny House Creator and well-known for coming 2nd on Channel 7’s popular renovation show House Rules in 2020 –  Aimee and her partner Kayne deemed fan favourites for their positive vibes and laid back attitude were the first Tradie Couple in House Rules History. And, 2017 she Co-founded Tiny Stays – a company that builds off-grid Tiny Houses’ and rents them out as short term accommodation.

L.N Why is a tiny house the perfect holiday accommodation?

A.S My brother Ben and I created Tiny Stays because we were sick of the same old routine of going to work, coming home, playing on our phones, then going to bed. We thought, surely there had to be more to life! We sat down one night and wrote down all our passions so we could hopefully turn into profit and find a bigger purpose in life, instead of living the mediocre lifestyle of work and not much play. Our passions included building, travel, adventure & being more eco-friendly. That is when we found the Tiny House Movement… Our tiny houses are the perfect holiday accommodation because it gives you the chance to escape work, escape your bosses and emails and go spend some quality time in nature with your loved ones disconnecting from technology – but reconnecting with yourself.

L.N What are the things to consider when staying in a tiny house?

A.S Staying in a Tiny House really brings you back to the simple things in life. Yes, you have a fully equipped kitchen, hot shower & queen size bed – but it is all about living that minimalistic lifestyle. A couple of things to pack on your adventure:

– Warm clothes in the winter

– Cheese & Wine (obviously…..)

– Your Sonos Roam – like you would ever leave the house without it anyway! 😉

L.N Why do you think tiny houses have become so popular?

A.S Tiny Houses have become popular for a number of reasons

A) People are sick of living their life in debt with a huge mortgage, more and more often now people are choosing to go back to the more simple life & swapping materialistic things for memories, adventures & experiences.

B) We are all looking for ways to be a lot more eco-friendly in this day and age and a tiny house is a perfect way to do your bit for the environment. Our Tiny Stays Tiny Houses are completely off-grid which means they have a composting toilet, solar panels & water tanks.

C) Something different! Fitting everything you need in life on a 5m long x 2.5m wide trailer… There is something magical about that!

Fiji in 2026 has matured beyond overwater bungalow Fiji in 2026 has matured beyond overwater bungalows and cocktail menus.

Sometimes luxury shows up quietly, without fanfare Sometimes luxury shows up quietly, without fanfare or a grand lobby to announce its presence. That is exactly how Finca Victoria arrived in Sa Riera—a restored estate where the pine-covered hills and Mediterranean set the tone before you even step inside.

Opened in 2025 after careful renovation of a historic property, it captures something rare on the Costa Brava: the feeling of having discovered a corner that hasn't yet lost its soul. Just thirty-eight rooms, all adults over fourteen, spread across what feels more like a private summer house than a resort determined to impress from the first moment. The central cloister anchors everything, with warm stone arches, ceramics, and Catalan tuff flooring that gives you a sense of place without leaning too hard on nostalgia.

The food alone tells you this was done with intention. AlKostat del Mar, led by chef Jordi Vilà, serves seasonal Catalan cooking rooted in local produce and fire. A rice dish can become the reason you're traveling somewhere new. Breakfast stretches from eight until eleven with made-to-order hot options alongside a carefully edited buffet—eggs Benedict with salmon, avocado toast, regional specialties like black butifarra with beans—that makes rushing feel unnecessary.

But what lingers is the room itself. In our Terrace Suite, nearly sixty square metres overlooked both sea and the rolling hills of Begur. The bathroom held both bathtub and rainfall shower. An outdoor shower faced sideways toward the horizon. These details don't shout; they settle into your memory slowly.

Spa appointments run through the Victoria Wellness Spa with water circuits, saunas, jacuzzis, and sensory treatments—all requiring advance booking, which somehow makes the peace even sweeter when you arrive. Morning yoga happens inside one of the suites, sunlight filling the space as you ground yourself into the day rather than race through it.

There is a complimentary shuttle to Begur village until late evening, and the beach is literally a short walk away. Private boat trips can be arranged for up to six people. Paddleboards, loungers, anything on the water the hotel can help coordinate through external partners. Yet even with
