Glamping Hub Beachfront Tree House Rental – Zihuatanejo, Mexico

If you’ve followed this blog for a while, then you already know I’m head over heels for Mexico. It’s such a beautiful country, and I keep discovering new reasons for me to go back asap. For example, I need to try treehouse glamping at this beachfront tree house in Zihuatanejo in the state of Guerrero, called Playa Viva.

Imagine waking up with the view of waves crashing on the shore just metres away from your bed, and read a book on your hammock while perched six feet above the ground. It’s a very Tarzan-like dream, isn’t it? Yet, at the same time guests have all the comforts including a private bathroom, and a shared pool and wi-fi.

Glamping Hub is my go-to site when I look for glamping destinations because there are just so many cool ones, including treehouse rentals! My bucket lists keeps expanding…

We like it because: The resort is committed to sustainability and the restaurant specializes in farm-to-table cuisine, with healthy and organic dishes.

Rates start at $476.

Treehotel – Harads, Sweden

Not your typical tree house resort: the treerooms at Harads are environmentally friendly and styled with groundbreaking designs by some of the best Swedish architects.

My favourite treehouse is the Mirrorcube, where the mirrored walls reflect the surrounding forest and guests are pretty much invisible.
All the treehouse cabins feature combustion toilets and are powered by hydroelectric energy; the property also features a treesauna!

We like it because: Treehotel manages to perfectly mix nature, contemporary design and sustainability, and during the winter you can experience the Northern Lights like nowhere else.

Rates start at $500 per night.

This tree house escape is as luxurious as it gets: think canopy beds, bathtubs and West African artworks. It will be difficult for guests to set foot outside, even to participate in one of the many activities included in the price.

Tongabezi Lodge, in addition to featuring some of the best tree houses in the world,  takes its social impact very seriously: it’s involved in a series of projects for the local communities, and to limit the impact on the environment too.

Look outside the window though, and you’ll see a blue lagoon ringed by a coral reef and manta rays swimming just metres away. This might easily be the best location ever for a treehouse getaway!

We like it because: Kanopi House describes itself as “eco-friendly, low impact, organic and green”, and doesn’t lie.

La Piantata – Arlena di Castro, Italy

Huilo Huilo Nothofagus Hotel & Spa – Huilo Huile, Patagonia, Chile
