Germany's Celebrity Haven
The first series of Promi Big Brother (Celebrity Big Brother) in Germany created a lavish escape for its celebrity residents. Taking opulence one step further, the house boasted fur bedcovers, thrones, animal skin rugs and gold-plated furnishings. And that's just the inside. A beach, pool bar and hot tub were just a few of the luxuries on hand for the chosen celebrities to make use of during their stay.

Australia's Lap of Luxury
Located just outside the Dreamworld theme park inGold Coast Australia, the Big Brother 2009 house adopted an aquatic theme, with extravagant fish tanks, Captain's Quarters, complete with a swimming pool and sauna, and sea-life-inspired decor. The house included a naughty room, for any misbehaving housemates, complete with an opaque to transparent window, for the other residents' pleasure.

Africa's All Stars
The house for Africa's very first All Star season was the epitome of lavish, dripping with jewels and plush velvet accessories. With chandeliers, candelabras and rich furnishings that wouldn't look out of place in a royal palace, spending 92 days in this dream house would definitely not cause a problem.

Croatian Paradise
Despite being the fifth season of Big Brother Croatia, the house is actually located in Thailand. Now this house is not your average BB home; in the garden, not only is there a stunning lake, swimming pool and palm trees, but also pet elephants for the housemates to look after during their stay.

British Grandeur
Celebrity Big Brother 2014 has just kicked off in the UK, but let's look back to 2013 to the beautiful abode that became the inmates' new home. The theme was clearly opulence for 2013, with chandeliers dangling from the ceiling, bearskin rugs and gold adornments, fit for any VIP. There was no shortage of luxury, with topiaries and statues, a treehouse and hot tub to keep the celebrities occupied during their stay.

Relax in Brazil
If you were lucky enough to enter Big Brother Brazil's season 11 house and live in the Rich House, you would never want to leave. The mansion interior boasts candy-themed bedrooms, a retro, neon kitchen and zenbathroom, whilst the exterior's palm tree-lined, poolside sun haven provides the perfect location for housemates to relax, sunbathe, take a dip in the pool, relax in the hot tub and truly enjoy their stay. Those subjected to life in the Poor House, were not quite so lucky. Life on this side of Big Brother lacks beds, food, and fun of any kind.
