Hotels of 'Enchanted Paradises'

To reach those perilous yet exquisite hotels and resorts, your options are... hiking, kayaking, or flying.

1. Green Magic Resort, Kerala, India

Before your stay, you'll have to exert effort to 'climb' through a suspended rope ladder at a height of 35m.

2. Tikchik Narrows Lodge, Bristol Bay, Alaska

Sitting solitary amidst Bristol Bay is this entirely wooden lodge, with four pilots dedicated full-time to ferrying guests to and from the city of Dillingham.

3. Rifugio Torre Di Pisa, Val Di Fiemme, Italy

A hotel only open from June to October, but to get here, you must spend 2 to 3 hours trekking, climbing half of a rocky mountain to rest with prices... 'sky-high'.

4. Casa Andina, Lake Titicaca, Peru

A 4-hour high-speed train journey will take you to the Casa Andina resort. This is the most modern aspect of the journey as Casa Andina is secluded from the outside world, with no electricity at all.

5. Jade Screen Hotel, Anhui, China

Either climb 60,000 stone steps for about 2 hours, or take a cable car to enjoy the breathtaking scenery surrounding the hotel.

6. Te Tiare Beach Resort, Huahine, France

This resort can only be accessed by boat, then you can rent a motorcycle or bicycle to explore the island, where there are still villages from prehistoric times and temples over a thousand years old.

7. Peter Island Resort & Spa, Virgin Islands, UK

To get there, you must have your own yacht or helicopter. Prior arrangements must be made as everything from the underwater world to the skies above is privately owned.

8. Jules Undersea Lodge, Florida, USA

There's only one way to reach this 7.62m deep lodge, and that's by diving. But this route is equally amazing as you can explore various corals and fish. Luggage will be placed in waterproof cases and brought to your room by hotel staff.

9. Waldorf Astoria Maldives, Maldives

Boat or helicopter are the two means to reach this resort. If by boat, it may take 75 minutes, while by plane it's only about 45 minutes.

10. Kokopelli Cave Hotel, New Mexico, USA

Walking, walking, and walking are the only ways to reach this hotel. You'll be exploring like an archaeologist searching for an underground kingdom.

11. Little Palm Island Resort & Spa, Florida, USA

The means to get you to this island are by boat or plane. You can experience a Robinson Crusoe-like life here.
