The International Marbella Set

Friday, 20 July 2012

Afraid to fly? Can't get enough of planes? No matter your feelings about aviation, these retired jets make for a unique hotel experience. Rather than abandon out of work airplanes, these innovative hoteliers have transformed them from a means of transportation, into a destination in their own right.

Airplane Suite in Teuge
Teuge, Netherlands
Rates: From $461/night

The plane is an Ilyushin 18 and was built in 1960. In its first years, it served 
as a government plane for the DDR top dogs, including Erich Honecker. From 1964 to 1986 Interflug, an East-German airline company, used it for flights to countries like Cuba, Russia, China and Vietnam. The entire airplane has been converted into a single luxury suite for two guests. From your airplane suite, you will have a fantastic view of the 
platform and runway at Teuge airport.

Costa Verde
Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica
Rates: From $350/night.

We salvaged this airframe from its San Jose airport-resting place. We carefully transported the pieces on five big-rig trucks to the jungles of Manuel Antonio, where they have been resurrected into a unique jumbo hotel suite. Our classic airplane, nestled on the edge of the National Park in our Costa Verde II area, is perched on a 50-foot pedestal. At this height, you will enjoy scenic ocean and jungle views from the hard wood deck built atop the plane's former right wing.
