The Bird’s Eye View

By Linda Tancs

Looking for a high-end eco adventure?  You can enjoy the bird’s eye view of Curaçao’s azure blue waters from the treetop mansion at Lodge Kura Hulanda Beach Club.  Set on wooden stilts amidst the island foliage, the “mansion” has two beds and two baths in over 1300 square feet of living  space decorated safari-style for that out-of-Africa feel.  The experience will only set you back $1000 a night–for starters.  The more price conscious might settle for a Swiss Family Robinson experience for $100 a night.  For that you’ll climb a ladder, then make your way through a trap door to a platform housing  a zippered tent with limited utilities (lights, refrigerator and television), a bed and a nightstand.  Bathroom facilities are below the platform.  Not quite as luxe but hey, happiness isn’t a place–it’s a state of mind.
