A stay above the jungle canopy or on your own private island… it’s a lot more achievable than you might think
Airbnb isn’t just a useful means of finding a city break or last-minute room; it can also take you to some awe-inspiring, wild and wonderful places.
Among the thousands of places to stay listed by the accommodation platform are 270 private islands and over 600 treehouses.
There’s a place to stay amongst the Ecuadorian rainforest, or you can wake up to the smell of pine needles from a two-storey treehouse in the south of France. There’s even the option to have a unique treetop sleep in the Scottish Highlands.
