11 of the best tree house hotels around the world

You'll be on a high for most of your holiday. Literally.

It’s that time of year again when daydreaming turns into buying airline tickets. But, instead of booking the same island resort or Balinese villa, why not take flight and aim for something a little higher? Literally. Tree house hotels are a thing, and they’re growing increasingly popular with holiday goers and sustainability enthusiasts. From the jungles of Costa Rica to the African tundra or the forests of Massachusetts, tree houses are popping up everywhere.

Stop dreaming, and start planning
