Adventurous travelers interested in branching out may want to consider looking beyond the standard hotel room and gazing further afield at an increasingly popular kind of accommodation: treehouse hotels.

It’s a concept that may appeal to nature lovers interested in intimate, wild, jungle experiences, as well as those seeking unique but luxurious experiences given the wide spectrum of treehouse accommodations that have become available in recent years.

Think hot tubs, a log fire, outdoor pools and showers.

Online travel website TripAdvisor’s newly released list of vacation rental treehouses, for instance, includes the Treehouse Hideaway in Canterbury, UK, which includes all the amenities expected of a standard hotel and then some: heated floors, a 60-inch cinema screen with surround sound, WiFi, fireplace and separate kitchen.

Missing from TripAdvisor’s list of treetop accommodations, meanwhile, is the uber-hip and trendy Treehotel in Sweden, a project that enlisted innovative Scandinavian designers to come up with concepts like the Mirrorcube which reflects its surroundings and is well camouflaged in the Swedish forest.
