vacations, why not try something entirely new?\u00a0 Here are just a few of the world\u2019s craziest hotels and what you can expect from your stay.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ICEHOTEL<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4369\" title=\"IceHotel\" src=\"http:\/\/www.funcage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/IceHotel.jpg\" alt=\"Ice Hotel\"  \/><br \/>\n<\/strong>Jukkasj\u00e4rvi, Sweden.\u00a0 A hotel made completely from ice may not speak to the beach-seeking crowd, but if you\u2019re on the market for a vacation that\u2019s one-of-a-kind, you could do worse than a stay at this amazing Swedish hotel.\u00a0 And you might be surprised to find that absolutely everything is sculpted from ice, including guest rooms, furnishings, and even plates and glasses.\u00a0 You\u2019ll have to stay bundled up during your trip, but beds come with furry coverlets and the ice-sculpting classes available to guests will help you to warm up (as will a few sips of vodka from a molded-ice shot glass).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Poseidon Undersea Resort<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4371\" title=\"poseidon-underwater-hotel\" src=\"http:\/\/www.funcage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/poseidon-underwater-hotel.jpg\" alt=\"\"  \/><br \/>\nPoseidon Mystery Island, Fiji.\u00a0 If warm waters and white-sand beaches are more your speed, consider the Poseidon Undersea Resort nestled in the crystal-clear waters of the Fijian islands.\u00a0 Yes, you read that correctly \u2013 IN the water.\u00a0 Guest rooms consist of all of the amenities one might expect from a luxury hotel, plus walls made of acrylic that allow you to gaze out into the open ocean on all sides (as well as above).\u00a0 Of course, you can always stay at the beachside resort above water, but wouldn\u2019t you really rather experience the gorgeous marine life from 40 feet below?<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sanya Nanshan Treehouse<\/strong><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"227\" height=\"239\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4372\" title=\"Sanya-Nanshan-Treehouse\" src=\"http:\/\/www.funcage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Sanya-Nanshan-Treehouse.jpg\" alt=\"\"  \/><br \/>\nJiangsu, China.\u00a0 If you\u2019re looking to get away from it all and enjoy the majesty of nature, you really can\u2019t get much farther from civilization than this (and still have electricity).\u00a0 Known as \u201cThe Big Beach in the Sky\u201d, this treehouse accommodation located in the midst of a 5,000-acre Buddhist botanical garden offers views of the greenery (interspersed with temples) and the gorgeous South China Sea.\u00a0 It\u2019s a must-visit oddity for anyone who needs a little peace and quiet for a few days.\u00a0 Treehouse sleeps four and is accessible by rope-and-plank suspension bridge.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DasParkHotel<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"263\" height=\"228\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4373\" title=\"dasparkhotel01\" src=\"http:\/\/www.funcage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/dasparkhotel01.jpg\" alt=\"\"  \/><br \/>\n<\/strong>Ottensheim, Austria.\u00a0 This is not a hotel for anyone who suffers from claustrophobia, but if you\u2019re interested in eco-friendly accommodations that allow for a sort of communal existence, then this odd hotel on the Danube River may be right up your alley.\u00a0 The guest rooms were created from recycled concrete pipes dropped into a park and outfitted with beds and lighting.\u00a0 One whole side opens up so that you can watch the outside world as you drift off to dreamland or eat your breakfast in bed.\u00a0 And while bathroom facilities service the whole park (they\u2019re provided for public use), guests pay for their usage on a donation basis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Exploranter Overland Hotel Truck<\/strong><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4374\" title=\"exploranter-overland\" src=\"http:\/\/www.funcage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/exploranter-overland.jpg\" alt=\"\"  \/><br \/>\nS\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil.\u00a0 If you\u2019ve ever considered traveling via a tour bus with beds, then this hotel should definitely catch your fancy.\u00a0 Take a weeklong trek through Brazil, Argentina, and Chile aboard this traveling hotel with beds for 28, plus a full kitchen and bathroom.\u00a0 You\u2019ll save a lot of time since the tour bus travels while you sleep, taking you to new locales overnight, and you\u2019ll get to see some of the most amazing parts of South America along the way, including the world\u2019s largest freshwater wetlands (Pantanal).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You may have spent time in exotic locales, at lodgings

around the world you\u2019re really not getting all you could from your vacation destination.\u00a0 So check them out today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some people like to
