These are the most wished-for Airbnb listings in Central Florida

Unique rentals range from movie-themed mansion to airplane hangar man cave

ORLANDO, Fla. – Anyone who's ever experienced wanderlust has no doubt spent hours scrolling through rental listings while they picture themselves dipping their toes in a private pool or waking up to a view by the water.

Vacationers can do just that at many of the local Airbnb rentals that made the site's list of top wish-listed listings in each Central Florida county.

Among the top contenders are a spacious studio with all the amenities nestled lakeside near downtown Orlando, a Hollywood-themed estate complete with a carousel and a ball pit, and a bona fide man cave located inside an airplane hangar.

Check out the unique rentals below, organized by county.

Brevard County

This studio cottage is a short walk from the beach and includes a cozy loft, kitchenette and an outdoor space for enjoying the Florida sunshine.

Guests who have stayed at the rental gave it a 100 percent approval rating on the location and 95 percent approval rating on the check-in process.

Since it is a studio space with only one double bed, the rental is best suited for single travelers or couples. Rates start at $55 per night, see the full listing here.

Lake County

This one is for the movie buffs. The 12-bedroom, 9.5-bathroom Ever After Estate offers guests 62 acres to enjoy.

Each of bedrooms is themed after a Hollywood hit, including "Star Wars," "Beauty and the Beast" and "Rocky." But it's unlikely you'll be doing much sleeping, since the home features an indoor theater; a game room with pool, chess and more; and a tube slide that dumps riders into a ball pit.

Venture outside and you'll find a put-put golf course, a luxurious lagoon-style pool complete with a waterslide, an outdoor kitchen and a three-person carousel.

This much prime real estate does come at a hefty cost. But since there's plenty of room, just gather up 44 of your closest friends to split the $2,025 per night price tag.

The host of this property also rents a game-themed mansion in Clermont and the Sweet Escape Resort. Find the full listing here.

Marion County

This Airbnb rental has gone country. This studio cottage, on an expansive horse farm in Ocala, has French doors that open up to rolling green pastures.

The space is furnished with a queen bed and a futon, providing space for up to three people.

Time inside can be spent watching one of the DVDs or cooking in the kitchenette. Or step outside to enjoy view and pass time at the fire pit.

Bookings start at $65 per night, and guests who've visited said the hosts were wonderful and the views were to die for. View the full listing here.

The space is in the basement and provides access to the home's pool, hot tub and dock.

The one-bedroom, one-bathroom space is best suited for couples or single travelers and it should be noted that the ceilings are low, so anyone over 6 feet 3 inches tall could feel a bit crammed.

Stays start at $125 per night, and many reviewers described it as one of the best Airbnbs they've ever stayed in. Read the full listing here.
