الخيام الفخمة في جنوب إفريقيا

"the slecuded. quiet peaceful grounds, the air circulation of sleeping in the tent, air flow thru mesh mosquito mesh, out side enclosed bathroom facilities,the yoga barn and good selection of books to to read in comfy arm chairs very nice plunger coffee with plunger ,over all a very pleasant 5 nights spent at this echo retreat"

maybe fresh seasonal fruit platter for breakfast as some photos show on their website, but, the muesli and little fruit, apple juice and coconut milk was very adequate

"The location, the tents, the food and the staff were excellent. A lovely rustic place to stay! Really enjoyed the night walk, the canoe ride as well as the sounds of the jungle at night. The tents were incredible apart from it being really hot and give you the true feeling of being close to nature. The staff is very prompt and attentive and we really enjoyed the local food cooked with ingredients from the neighbouring areas."

It was quite hot and the fan was available only for a few hours each day.

"We stayed in a family room and really enjoyed this original experience which brought us closer to nature. Special mention to the beautiful and thoughtful decoration, particularly the garden. Carole and Jean-Yves are extremely friendly, make you feel at home straight away, and generously share tips and recommendations for your stay on the island. The facilities are not only functional but also particularly well designed for the guests' comfort."

"독채를 빌려서 측간소음, 층간소음 전혀없어서 좋았어요 바베큐장비, 취사기(밥솥), 냄비 있을게 다 있어서 밥해먹기도 좋았어요 차량도 자기숙소칸 앞에 세우다보니 소음 차단이 추가로 되는 느낌이라 좋았고, 바로앞에 해수욕장, 온천이 있어 좋아요."

딱히 아쉬운건 없었어요

"For our travels in New Zealand, we were so excited to book this glamping experience for two nights, and we came prepared and ready for our adventure (light packing for the stay, BBQ food and an SUV to handle the poor conditions of the access road) and fit enough for the climb up to the glamp, having climbed some significant mountains in recent years. However, and compared to other glamps throughout New Zealand, we were a bit underwhelmed .... and some love, investment and attention to detail are required to make this as successful as others. It was though a unique experience, and many funny and not so funny memories were created! The tent is beautifully positioned overlooking the bay / lake - and truly quiet and private. The beds were comfortable and we slept really well in general (albeit - a bit nervous in the windy conditions we experienced during our first night). The shower worked well for us, but the toilet less so (despite being well used to outdoor toilets)."

A detailed list of reflections has been sent separately to the owner but in essence: - Access / climb is definitely not easy - some 250m and 75m elevation gain....! There are 3 stages to the climb ... The soil of path has become so worn, exposing the more slippy surface underneath. We fell twice going down, and we would suggest hiking boots. Perhaps some stairs to be built? - Kitchen / BBQ area - totally unsuitable other than in glorious sunshine, wind & rain free conditions. We arrived in gale force wind - and due to the exposed nature of the bbq, nearly impossible to use ..... In addition, there are no working surfaces for the BBQ, and all cooking/crockery/utensils kept inside. Perhaps invest in a dedicated kitchen area that is sheltered? All other similar venues have this ..... - Inside eating - the only table / bench is outside (in a stunning position) but again, only suitable in great weather. Due to the extreme weather we experienced, we had to retreat inside and there were no table / chairs inside - and actually not much seating at all ..... Perhaps a foldable table and chairs? - Cleanliness - the flooring of the tent definitely needed a proper clean and also all the cutlery / crockery. We would also recommend a more personalised approach, and perhaps some breakfast provisions. These touches definitely made a difference to the experience of the other glamps / similar unique venues.

"Beautiful views from the tent, very peaceful. Loved the sunset and the sunrise. The tents are very spacious and have everything you need: towels, soap, fridge, kitchen that comes with all the bits and bobs to cook."

Entry road was very bumpy.

"Otentic was the most amazing authentic place. It felt super communal and was full of activities to fill the day. Amazing Creole food. Staff were wonderful! Would recommend to anyone. You NEED to stay here"

"Shtiuie and Abu-Shamir are very friendly and welcoming. The breakfest was well served with eggs, pita breads, cheese, and vegatabales. The fireplace kept working and coffee and tea was served continousely. If we had any problems Shtiuie took care of them!"

The location is misleading. The place is actually inside the beduiwen village which is crowded by animals and noise. My friend wasnt able to sleep. as for me it was not a problem.

"Nice place by the river and mountains in the middle of nature, double room with the shower and toilet. Friendly staff."

Not a problem with the campsite: there is 8 km unpaved road only to this place.

"A small cabin in the woods, crown lands around allowing you to walk or hunt, no electricity, no phone network. A wood stove and candles. What's not to like?"

The road to get there is hard if you have a sedan especially after a snow storm.
