 Beach Rock Treehouse: Okinawa, Japan This treehouse by Japanese builder Kobayahsi Takashi was constructed with the express purpose of communicating with outer space. "A sparkling beacon among treetops, it is easy to imagine the dome succeeding at its mission to make contact with alien life," writes Nelson.  Wilderness Treehouse Lodge, Alaska Eric Schmidt's treehouse, in the foothills of the Alakan range, is 90 miles from the nearest road with black and grizzly bears the immediate neighbours. To get there, you have to fly in from Anchorage to a nearby lake, and then hike for 90 minutes. Not for the faint-hearted  Treehouse Hotel, Punta Uva, Costa Rica This two-level timber dwelling in the Gandoca-Manzanillo Wildlife Refuge, on the southern Caribbean coast, owes its existence to the green iguana. It was built by an amateur botanist who runs a breeding and research station there for the endangered species  The treehouse can accommodate six people in two rooms and is on the beach. Proceeds from rentals help sustain the green iguana project.  Big Beach in the Sky, Hainan, China A three-storey structure with two double bedrooms in a tamarind tree overlooking the beach near the city of Sanya on the island of Hainan.

Green Magic Treehouse Resort, Kerala, India An eco resort with two treehouses set in 500 acres of rainforest high in the mountains.

Bullock dung powers the cookers and water is diverted from mountain streams. Food is hoisted up by pulley.  Hotell Hackspett, Vasteras, Sweden Built by artist Mikael Genberg, the Hackspett (Woodpecker) is suspended high in a 350-year-old oak tree. Inside, there's a single bed, hammock, kitchenette and toilet, with an outside balcony to enjoy the views. Access is by rope, and food is also winched up  West Bay Treehouse, Roatan, Honduras High in the thick foliage of a century-old mango tree with views over the Caribbean Ocean, access is by a timber spiral staircase  West Bay Treehouse, Roatan, Honduras There's a double bed, toilet, running water and electricity and a balcony large enough to swing a hammock.
