Bangkok, Thailand – Airbnb, the world’s leading marketplace to list, discover and book unique accommodations, has unveiled its top seven unique listings in Thailand for travelers who desire something different.

In Thailand, Airbnb has more than 1,300 properties listed and if you are looking for something a bit different to spice up your holiday then there are some great options. Have you ever stayed in a tree house? You can spend a night in the trees in Chiang Mai or go underground in Koh Pah Ngan when booking a luxury “cave”. Other options include a luxurious tent, a hill tribe home and a catamaran.
The top seven unique properties in Thailand:
1. Dream treehouse in Chiang Mai
This tree house offers unspoiled nature at a reasonable price. Elephant rides, bamboo rafting, bush walks, Thai cooking classes, meditation, coffee and tea plantations are all nearby.

2. Charming Hillside Luxury “Cave” in Koh Pah Ngan
This rather luxurious “cave” artfully combines granite, wood and earth. While the earth bag walls elegantly fill gaps between large boulders, the double roof structure is elliptic in shape and rests on two massive Sandalwood poles which previously served as main masts on a sailing boat. Warm natural light finds its way in through down lights and a large glass front. Corners are entirely absent, and a feeling of peace and tranquility prevails.
The villa features a large stylish outdoor kitchen that overlooks the surrounding jungle. It comes fully equipped (stainless steel kitchenware), but instead of electrical appliances you will find a wood fired brick dome (pizza) oven on the kitchen counter.
