La Maison du Banian Tree houseEfate, Vanuatu
Robinson Crusoe eat your heart out. This enchanting tree house, 10 kilometres from Vanuatu’s capital, Port Vila, is an architectural wonder that seamlessly blends island living with the natural environment. The house is built in and around a giant banyan tree and is furnished with home comforts made exclusively from natural materials and fibre.
Take a swing in a hanging bamboo chair and climb a ladder to the loft bedroom, where you’ll wake to birdsong under a canopy of natangora leaves. Feast on a breakfast smorgasbord of fruit and freshly laid eggs, courtesy of the rainforest garden and its resident chickens.
La Maison du Banian is located about 10 kilometres from the capital, Port-Vila. Vanuatu is accessible by plane with Air Vanuatu, Air Calin and Qantas, or by cruise ship from New Caledonia.
