New to Host Unusual: Seven Wonders of the World!

22 March 2019

We’re shining a spotlight on some truly beautiful new properties today, all sharing a common trait – these locations frame nature spectacularly and put you in the right setting to appreciate some of the world’s most gorgeous scenery. 

They include expertly crafted treehouses – firstly in Ohio for some serious forest bathing, and then overlooking mangroves and azure waters in Tanzania.

There’s an off-grid Swedish barn conversion set beside a sparkling lake, a vibrant shepherd’s hut with incredible views over the Portuguese valleys, and a unique piece of mid-century natural architecture with stunning sea views in Hawaii.

As if that’s not enough to tempt you, a brand new landscape hotel surrounded by vineyards in Uruguay is ready to welcome you, as is an unusual micro-resort in a spectacular lake district in Poland.
