Amangiri, Canyon Point, Utah
This minimalist resort in the Utah desert is a favourite for celebrities, it is also popular with any traveller looking for privacy and uber-luxurious digs. While every room here is incredible, none matches the elegance of the Girijaala Suite.
At over 3,500 square feet, the room boasts a large, private lap pool, a sweeping terrace overlooking majestic rock formations; and, a sky lounge area where guests can bed down for the night under the clear Utah skies. But don’t worry if you get chilly: the interior of the room has a cozy king-size bed and a deep-soaking tub.

andBeyond Ngala Safari Lodge, South Africa
At this property on the border of Kruger National Park, guests can reserve a one-night experience in a four-level treehouse to get even closer to the “Big Five” animals that roam the park.
The house is entirely self-sustaining with a solar power supply, a greywater collection system and a bio-rock sanitation system.
There are also multiple sleeping options in the treehouse, including a sleep-out platform with a retractable awning on the top floor, as well as a covered, weather-proof king bed on the third.

Not only is the room accessed by a hidden entrance behind a wrought-iron staircase, but it also has a 2,100 square-foot terrace with views of the Hollywood Hills. In the middle of this private, urban oasis is a 10-foot-tall tent, complete with a crystal chandelier, marble lamps and fur rugs.
