Beware of birds flitting around the bush and sheep crossing the road!

Mahua Kothi, India
At the heart of India, four in the closest you will find 12 kutiyas (jungle huts) in this property of Bandhavgarh National Park Airport.

Ol Donyo Lodge, Kenya

If you want to break an observation of wildlife, there is plenty to do in the hotel: spend the afternoon in the infinity pool, enjoy a private dinner in your villa or glass around the fireplace outside before going to sleep in your bed on the roof, under the stars.
Crans Luxury Lodges, Switzerland
The five private cottages in western Switzerland are to the gondola that takes you to alpine excursions throughout the year. In winter, try skiing, paragliding, sledding and snowshoeing. In summer, golf, hike bike, are climbing and more. Three of the cottages include a private spa with sauna and hot tub. Each has a room to store skis, you can enjoy the services of a concierge, catering and on-demand access to the best attractions in the area (custom shopping, perhaps?).
Mashpi Lodge, Ecuador
With its contemporary minimalist look, this grand hotel in the rainforest is designed for a comfortable and modern where you focus on the spectacular setting and not on the color of the draperies. The view of the forest from the bed through the windows that run from floor to ceiling, will make you want to call room service!

Once outside, take a walk on the nature trails and let the guides direct your gaze on the abundance of flora and fauna - insects, amphibians, rodents, birds and even mushrooms.
