Perchedjust north ofthe Arctic Circle in Sweden, the 20 year oldIce Hotel is, as you may assume, a hotel made of ice! With options that include sleeping on actual blocks of ice snuggled amongst reindeer skins, you are able to choose between cold accommodations (which meansbetween -5 Cto -8 C)to warm accommodations (an actual hotel on the same property).Each winter, a team of snow builders, architects,and designers from all over the world, come together in the little town of Jukkasjrvi to re-build the hotel. Themaze of ice sculpted rooms, suites and chiseled figurines,opens up by December 10th, and continues to offer frosty accommodations until springtime arrives and begins to unthaw this work of art. Located next to the Torne River,the massive amounts of snow also make for perfect snowmobiling and skiing expeditions. To take an exciting overnight tour, go dog sledding for the day, or book yourstay at the Ice Hotel, click here. Just imagine a view of the Northern Lights from this place!


If you think a beach side resort is the ultimate vacay experience, then think again. The Maya Hotel, is an unconventional floating pyramid located south of Cancun, and slated to open in 2010. Constructed of a very dense, plastic composite material that is 10 times stronger and 35 times lighter than steel, this hotel is just one of many that Oceanic Creations, plans to build in the near future. The key to budget travel is to approach ahead. When it comes to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved vacations and/or going to see new locations we have never been before, the actuality of cost and budgeting is generally in the back of our thoughts. Arranging and expending our travel budget correctly is a concern for most families. Minimizing consuming and costs, while still savoring your vacation to its fullest, is the key to confirmed accomplishment and fiscal obligation. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thinking behind saving money while travelling is simple: Even if your personal funds is really limited, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also keeping in mind that while traveling, regardless of whether on a budget or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel costs!. This $209 million dollar hotel gently hovering above the Caribbean Sea, is drafted to be a 5- star hotel with uber- posh amenities; including: 350 rooms, multiple restaurants, a nightclub andan underwater marina. Stay tunedthis year to find out more details on how to book your reservations at the Maya Hotel.


Definitely not for the claustrophobic, the Capsule Inn, in Tokyo, is Japan's answer to efficiency and creativity- all rolled into a bunch of coffin sized rooms. You pay for your 'room' at a vending machine, hand the ticket to a clerk who thenprovides you with a capsule number, locker key and a wristband. While there is a restaurant, T.V. room, and small bar located a level above the sleeping accommodations,at 6.5 feet long, the individual capsules are equipped with little more than a built- in T.V. and alarm clock. Designed for the copious amountsof hard- workingpeople who infiltrate Tokyo's business districts at all hours, the Capsule Hotels are open 24 hours and within walking distance of the subway and express lines. And at approximately $30 U.S. dollars a night, this is undeniably the place to stay for those on-the-go.


We'll end part 2 of the world's weirdest hotels, with an intriguing bed and breakfast located right in Farmington, New Mexico. Kokopelli's Cave Bed and Breakfast, is carved intoa 65 million year old Ojo Alamosandstone formationoverlooking a cliff top aboveLa Plata River. However, guests must walk down a sloping path, 70 feet below the surface in order to get to the cave itself. Surrounded by the Chuska Mountains on the Navajo Indian reservation, this bed and breakfast provides incomparable views of mother nature at her finest. The spectacular vista includes the Carrizo Mountains in northeastern Arizona as well as the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado. Complete with a fireplace, kitchen, hot tub and more, this unique lodging experience is sure to be one to remember!


I hope you've enjoyed lodging vicariously through both of these articles, as much as I have enjoyed writing them. Happy travels!
