Will you be amazed if I told you that bubbles made out of fiberglass can be eco-friendly? If yes, then you might as well be interested in knowing what these bubbles are, who makes them, what’s their use and likes…isn’t it?
A UK- based company ‘Our Planet Retreats’, manufactures prefab buildings which are bubble-shaped eco-resorts which you can purchase at affordable prices! The company’s eco-sphere is actually a tree house giving you a feel of how Tarzan might have felt living on trees. What’s more Tarzan never had the modern day comforts which this eco-sphere comes laced with!
The cost of constructing one for you can be different and depends upon whether you belong to a developing country or a developed one. But, Our Planet Retreats has innovative ideas like communal financing to help buy you one for your own special ecological retreat in exotic locations like Papua New Guinea, Vanatu and Philippines.

The floating eco-sphere can be accessed by stairs that lead you to it. The bubble-shaped house is crafted so as to leave a minimum environmental impact. Carved out of hard fiberglass, it is well insulated & wired, bears large windows for the sunshine to pour in and has lights, switches and outlets inside! This portable accommodation spells out sustainability when it comes to energy options-mini solar panels & solar water heating systems. May I say, to me it resembles a cozy bird’s nest!

Our Planet Retreats offers simple steps to get involved with them. You need to buy a share or a sphere. The former will cost you $30 and the latter around $2,500. However at this price the sphere comes unfurnished! If you are among those who like to purchase fully-furnished accommodations then this spherical prefab could be yours at a higher price tag.

Any eco-resort is truly considered to be environmentally-oriented when it takes the locals under its wings. So does Our Planet Retreats! It has plans to employ locals for building its unique eco-spheres and they will be encourage to buy shares so as to strengthen the local economy by empowering native people. So, if you are truly green-minded, I’m sure this eco-sphere will delight you!
