Around the world, Airbnb has become an increasingly popular way to explore foreign cities, travel around a foreign country or even just get away for the weekend. The online accommodation website forms a significant segment of Hong Kong’s burgeoning “sharing economy’’ but the fact that - technically - anyone who offers a sleeping space for less than 28 days without a license could face a HK$200,000 fine under SAR laws hasn’t stopped more than 1,000 locals putting their houses up for rent to strangers. It can be cheaper than a hotel – or you could just spend HK$58,000 for a night aboard a Hong Kong ‘superyacht’.

It even has an on-deck cinema. Measuring a modest 24 metres in length and only built in 2013, it also has three bathrooms, a kitchen and a staff of three crew members who come with the boat.

If the price tag is too much for you, however, there are other options available – a second Hong Kong ‘luxury houseboat’ is up for rent, yours for only HK$10,000 a night. Featuring a dining area, a master bedroom, an exercise bike and a cosy living area, it’s available to book almost any day between now and 2016. Earlier this mont we reported that nearly one in three internet users in Hong Kong dip into sharing services such as car-hailing app Uber, flat-rental site Airbnb, crowdfunding operations or other peer-to-peer platforms as many as eight times a year, a new survey has found. Such services represent a shift from traditional forms of consumption to an economy based on collaboration that is upending mature business models around the world, while saving users time and money and, in many cases, providing greater entertainment or enjoyment along the way.
