Daredevil experience: Adventure-seekers can now sleep in a transparent capsule hanging off the side of a Peruvian mountain, in the spectacular Sacred Valley.

Thrill-seekers only: These incredible Skylodge Adventures Suites are precariously situated on the side of the cliff -- you can only get there after you climb 400 meters of the rock face or hike a challenging trail featuring a zip-line network.

Reconnect with nature: The motivation behind this unique structure was to offer "a unique experience that [reconnects guests] with nature or make them realize what really luxury can be," Natalia Rodriguez, the SkyLodge manager, tells CNN Travel.

Spectacular views: Inside, guests are treated to unique views -- alongside four beds, a dining area and a private bathroom.

Inner adventurer: The suites are the brainchild of adventure company Natura Vive -- who encourage guests to embrace their inner adventurer: Once you're ready to leave your suite, you can zip-wire down.

Construction challenges: Rodriguez says the main challenges of constructing this unique structure were "getting things up there" and "designing it to handle winds."

Safe and secure: The pods are crafted from aerospace aluminum and weather-resistant polycarbonate -- and Natura Vive promise they are safe and secure.

Night and day: The views from the pods are incredible at night as well as in the daytime -- they're perfect for stargazing.

Settle down for the night: Natura Vive has kitted out the pods with high-quality mattresses and sheets, down pillows and quilts.

Gourmet dining: This unconventional vacation costs roughly $400 for one night -- including private transportation to and from your hotel, equipment, guides -- plus a gourmet dinner with bottle of wine, and breakfast over the Sacred Valley.

Sacred Valley: Peru's Sacred Valley is roughly book-ended by two UNESCO World Heritage sites: former Imperial capital Cusco and 15th century Inca citadel Machu Picchu

Spectacular sights: The river valley is home to forests, fascinating archaeological ruins and fantastic landscapes.

Valley views: After you've spent a night or two admiring the Sacred Valley from above, you can venture down below and onto the wonders of Macchu Picchu.

Small space: The pods measure 24 feet by eight feet. The size is cozy but not claustrophobic -- but the pods are still not ideal for anyone who suffers from vertigo.

Safety first: Guests are briefed on safety, security and how to use the equipment -- but the adventure is probably still best-suited to those familiar with rock climbing.

Gastronomic experience: For those who don't want to stay the night, SkyLodge offers a lunch-only, Peruvian gastronomic experience -- from 770 Peruvian Soles/$237 per person.
