A double-storey treehouse, built around an 80-year old durian tree, is nestled among lush greenery. The upper deck features two wooden lounge chairs, offering a serene view of the surrounding forest, while the natural landscape adds a sense of tranquility.
Treehouse

Treehouse - Sleeping on a Durian tree

The double-storey treehouse is built within a 16-acre sustainably farmed fruit orchard located 300m above sea level. Fitted around an 90-year old durian tree, it is built by hand with recycled wood and bamboo harvested from the land. The treehouse has no walls, only bamboo blinds that open up to the trees all around so nature comes to you. Durians fruit only once a year at the farm, in June and July, so, worry not - no smell of durians except during fruiting season in these 2 months.
