With all of the bizarre and unique theme hotels and resorts found around the world, kitsch-seeking travelers no longer are forced to stay in boring hotels replete with industry-standard marble flooring, conservative furnishings and tasteful art. Whether they cater to bikers or nudists, yogis or oenophile hedonists, there is surely a hotel in this cluster to appeal to everyone’s travel fantasies.

Some hotels and resorts are seen as mere places to rest between outings, less of an attraction in their own right than a temporary place of sojourn. These luxe lodgings, however, are packed with unique amenities and attractions that invite the traveler to toss his or her itinerary aside and stay on-site.
