From Botswana to Sweden, these hotspots make the dream of sylvan slumber come true

- CHARU SURI

SLEEPING IN THE treetops is a childhood fantasy of many travellers and adventure seekers.

For some, it looks like the Adventureland Treehouse at Disneyland, an attraction inspired by the 1960 film Swiss Family Robinson. For others, the dream is the treehouse at Pitchford Hall in rural Shropshire in England, which claims to be the world's oldest, dating to 1692 (tours available). The hospitality industry has made treehouses a reality for vacationers and upgraded the accommodations from rustic shelters to glamourous affairs: Think soaking tubs, open-air living rooms and quirky, opulent interiors. Indeed, Airbnb lists 270,000 tree houses around the world, most of them in North America. An industry analysis by Grand View Research valued the global tree house glamping market at $332.4 million in 2024 and projected it to reach $473.2 million by 2030. Here are six treehouses around the world that retain their rustic vibe without compromising creature comforts and spectacular views.

Nayara Bocas del Toro, Panama

On Frangipani, a private island in Panama, sits the Nayara Bocas del Toro resort, with four solar-powered treehouse accommodations designed by Ibuku, a Bali-based design studio led by Elora Hardy, the Canadian designer. The treehouses are made from locally grown bamboo and several varieties of reclaimed hardwoods.

Meandering resort paths covered in greenery lead to the tree houses and curving stairs that lead to a pivoting glass door. The one-bedroom tree houses feature Balinese furniture, open-air living rooms overlooking 80 acres of mangrove forests, 21-foot-tall ceilings, outdoor jungle showers and copper soaking tubs. In the treehouse, a pulley brings picnic-style meals to guests. A standalone "spa treehouse" is undergoing a soft opening and will make its formal debut in early 2026. Treehouse rates start at $1,400 per night, all-inclusive.
