Bangkok Tree House - Thailand
Nestled on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, in the green oasis of Bang Krachao, Bangkok Tree House accommodates guests in 12 sleeping units called “cozy nests” and named after insects. Built from local bamboo, glass, and recycled metal, these include stylish treehouses, a treetop bungalow, and the stunning View With a Room – a wall/ceiling-free sleeping platform elevated 7 m above mangrove palm trees. Another striking feature is the River Nest, which allows guests to spend the night on a floating bed right in the middle of the river. The hotel’s restaurant serves excellent organic food, including a variety of vegan dishes.

Finca Bellavista is unlike any other place on Earth. The 350-acre site on Costa Rica’s southern coast is the first modern sustainable treehouse community and is home to houses, a community center and many other buildings— all suspended in the trees. Finca Bellavista is situated among mountains, beaches and rivers so one can imagine the breathtaking views available from a Costa Rican treetop home.
Every treehouse here is one-of-a-kind because each structure’s design varies based on elevations and available trees. This community is also unique because of its emphasis on sustainability. Small homes are encouraged, and all units are required to utilize rainwater collection and to be connected to the local electrical grid, which uses solar power.
