From lighthouses and treehouses to igloos and cave hotels, from private desert islands to magnificent Indian palace hotels. Room with a View is a collection of some of the most unusual hotels and places to stay in the world and how to get there.

Live like a Spanish king in a circular lighthouse designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Situated off the coast of La Manga, Spain. Baron Island was once a royal hunting reserve of King Amadeo of Saboya. Or live like the real Robinson Crusoe on the real Robinson Crusoe island off the coast of Chile. This remote island allows you to live a life unburdened by todays materialist pressures.

Try a treehouse built 100ft above the ground deep in the jungles of the Western Ghats, India with electricity, mosquito nets, running water and your own shower room.
