Vacation in a Luxury Tree House

Lodge Kura Hulanda & Beach Club, located on the Dutch Caribbean island of Curaçao, has put the finishing touches on its Tree House Mansion, which is now available for guests to rent. This two bedroom, two bathroom treetop suite provides all the luxuries and comforts of a hotel with a safari twist.

Built atop wooden stilts, the Tree House Mansion is 1312 square feet and decorated with an African vibe - filled with artifacts and antiques that Kura Hulanda owner and visionary, Jacob Gelt Dekker, brought back from his travels over the years.

A wooden spiral staircase leads up to the Tree House Mansion and into the open-air living room, which features an authentic Bali Bridal bed and a wide terrace, perfect for sunset views over the water. Each bedroom is air-conditioned and has a four-poster king size bed with mosquito netting, flat screen TV, and full bathroom with tub and shower. The Tree House Mansion also has wireless Internet and a full kitchen with refrigerator, stove, sink and microwave.

The Tree House Mansion sleeps up to four people with rates starting at $1,000/night.

$1,000/night from June 1 through December 23, 2008
$1,500/night from December 24, 2008 - January 2, 2009
$1,200/night from January 3 – April 12, 2009

For a more novelty experience, Lodge Kura Hulanda also offers a basic Tree House located amongst the Lodge Garden View Rooms and Suites, which rents for $100/night. Guests climb up a ladder, through a trap door and on to a wooden platform where a full sized safari tent is erected. Inside the zippered tent door the tree house is equipped with a king size bed, nightstands and working electricity (lights, mini-refrigerator and television). While not air-conditioned, the cross breeze that blows through the windows when unzipped provides all the cool air necessary. Located on the ground, beneath the platform, is the tree house bathroom which features a shower, sink and toilet.
