Summer officially begins in just a few days (for some of us), and what better way to kick things off than by looking at an actual hotel made from a decommissioned Boeing 727. This one-of-a-kind suite at the Hotel Costa Verde in Costa Rica is set inside a 1965 Boeing 727 airplane that transported globetrotters on South Africa Air and Avianca Airlines. Each piece was transported individually from the San Jose airport to its current resting place on a pedestal 50-feet above the beach.
Believe it or not, the two-bedroom, two-bathroom suite also has a kitchenette, flat-screen televisions, a dining area, and a terrace with an ocean view. Sure, some of the furnishings may appear dated, but that was done intentionally to give it a more authentic island vibe. Most are made from teak sourced from Indonesia and hand carved.
