Vacation Getaways...

Summer is winding down, but the weather only seems to be getting warmer (odd, we know).  How about hitting up one of these destinations for a vacation?  They're known as the World's Weirdest Hotels, but they look like a nice depature from the humid heat in the city!

Can Sleep, Lake Skanderborg, Denmark

Each beer can has a sleeping loft, a skylight "lid" that actually opens, and a fully stocked mini bar

Elephant Safari Park Hotel Lodge, Bali

Prett much located in the middle of an elephant community, this hotel doesn't escort guests to thier rooms on golf carts.  Elephants trasnsport you and your luggage to your room.

Free Spirit Spheres, Vancouver Island, Canada

These pods are suspended 10 - 15 feet above the ground, and sway with the wind smoothly.  Don't worry about being too landlocked - they've got a place to dock your iPod!

Hotel Kakslauttanen, Finland

These semi-underground igloos are definetly colder than Bermuda, but have an the most beautiful nighttime view. 




Hotel Utter Inn, Sweden

For the water-enthusiast, try staying in this sumbmerged cabin.  Sleep underwater, and chill on the deck all day long!


Jumbo Stay, Stockholm

Environmental conscious is an understatment for this hotel.  Made from a retired Boeing 747 airplane, this hotel is perfect for those scared of heights.



La Villa Hamster, Nantes, France

A life-sized hamster cage, with a working hamster wheel!

Les Roulottes de la Serve, Provence, France

Live like a Gypsy for a week.  Share utilities with your neighbors and make new friends


Palacio de Sal, Bolivia

This Bolivian hotel is made entirely of salt from floor to ceiling (except the fluffy blankets and pillows)



Cheers,
Alex
