727 Fuselage, Quepos, Costa Rica
The sky’s the limit for this hotel, which is made out of a 1965 Boeing 727.

From £225 per night. [Photo: Costa Verde]

Cliff camping, Anglesey, Wales
Those with a head for heights, look no further than cliff camping. You sleep on a small portaledge on a sheer rock face, suspended up to 200ft in the air with the crashing sea below. Thankfully you’re attached to your bed – and you’ll find the nights are wonderfully alive if you’re unable to nod off. Gaia Adventures offers cliff camping in North Wales, from £450.
