Cannabis-friendly vacation rentals have been popping up as legalization of recreational cannabis expands to more states.

A hairstylist before the pandemic, Butler began managing the bed-and-breakfast full time when the salon she worked at closed during the pandemic. She said the business"I think the pandemic made people really appreciate experiences, self-care, and just doing things that make them feel good," said Butler.Cannabis sales in the U.S. are projected to climb from $25 billion in 2021 to $42 billion in 2026, according to cannabis market research firm BDSA.

Florida, one of the top vacation destinations in the U.S., still does not allow recreational cannabis use. But after voters approved a bill in 2016 allowing medicinal use on private properties, Mack, an Uber and Lyft driver at the time, saw an opportunity to cash in. Mack cross-lists on Vibesbnb and Airbnb. He said people can either book one of his listings on Airbnb or go directly to his site for cheaper booking., cannabis possession and use is allowed"in locations where it is legal and does not violate any house rules." However, the company does not allow users to directly search for cannabis-friendly rentals, or allow its hosts to list their rentals as such.

Mack took his plans for Vibesbnb to investors in 2019 after finding success listing his own, then other apartments that he rented, as cannabis-friendly stays on sites including Airbnb and Vrbo. He got around the site's rules by putting"420 friendly" in the description, which let people find him through Google searches.

thestefansykes So a cannabis friendly vacation rental? So picking up a dime bag in an abandoned lot and going back to the local Motel 6? This sounds like one hell of a rebranding effort. 😂
