That's camping with all the shitty parts and a really nice cot.
Wind, rain, dust, falling shit, bugs, animals, etc. You can get a similar atmosphere by having a tent and opening the vent flaps. Or like, sleeping under a tarp to mitigate rain if you really want that outdoorsy feel. I knew a guy who slept in a hammock on nice nights but I fear the skeeters.
There are nice bug nets made specifically to fit around hammocks. You see the sky and not be eaten alive.
Some hammocks even have the bug net built in creating a nice bugfree cocoon.
