Yurts are an excellent way to live an economical lifestyle without sacrificing the traditional comforts of home. Often, Pacific Yurts are assembled in pristine natural locations, where visitors and owners alike are encouraged to take advantage of their surroundings by gardening, hiking, and homesteading. 

Pacific Yurts can also make incredible luxury destinations by allowing travelers to immerse themselves in picturesque settings while staying in a uniquely designed structure during a glamping getaway. Whether you’re looking to pick your next must-see vacation spot, or you’re simply looking for inspiration in building your very own yurt, here are a few of the inspiring luxury Pacific Yurts you have to see. 

1. Coastal Magic in a Luxury Yurt – Surry, Maine 

When Sharon Minogue came into nearly 90 acres of land on Maine’s iconic Patten Bay in Surry, there were few doubts that she and her husband would retire there. The real question was, however, centered on finding a way to build a sustainable structurewithout impacting the fragile landscape in the region. Understandably, the Minogue’s settled on a yurt (or, rather, two yurts linked by a breezeway) for its adaptability, low-impactful build, and free-flowing interior. The result is a well-designed double luxury yurt that’s as efficient and practical as it is trendy. It features a freestanding bathtub with jets, floors with radiant heating, and a water-facing view from a wraparound porch. Altogether, their two yurts are a shining example of how a well-designed circular home can function as the ultimate retirement dwelling or the perfect glamping destination for travelers stopping over in Maine.
