(Igloo Hotels, Overwater Villas & Treehouses)
Travel is not just about visiting new places—it’s also about how you experience them. While most travelers look for comfort and convenience in a hotel, some destinations offer accommodations that are so extraordinary, they become the highlight of the trip itself. From sleeping in a glass igloo under the dancing Northern Lights, to waking up in an overwater villa above crystal-clear waters, or enjoying the serenity of a treehouse amidst lush forests, these unique stays transform a holiday into a lifetime memory.
If you’re planning a trip that’s a little different from the usual, here are some of the world’s most unforgettable places to stay—and how Plan Journeys can make them a part of your itinerary.
Igloo Hotels – Sleep Under the Northern Lights
Where you’ll find them: Finland, Sweden, Norway, Iceland
Imagine lying in bed while the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) dances across the sky. Igloo hotels, made of glass or ice, are a dream come true for travelers looking for a magical Arctic adventure. These stays usually include cozy interiors, private saunas, husky sledding tours, and sometimes even ice bars.
- Best time to visit: December to March
- Popular properties:
- Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort (Finland) – Famous for its glass igloos and cozy log cabins.

Overwater Villas – Luxury Above the Ocean
Where you’ll find them: Maldives, Bora Bora, Fiji, Tahiti, Mauritius
Few travel experiences rival the luxury of waking up in an overwater villa. With turquoise lagoons right outside your door, private pools, glass floors to spot marine life, and direct steps into the water, these stays are the ultimate in romance and relaxation.
