Roomy and always clean glamping-tents with everything you need for a self-catering holiday in the communal areas. Loved the way the camp is nestled in between beautiful trees and the paths are boardwalks. Really friendly and forthcoming staff as well as owner. The camp is within walking distance from all the shops and restaurants. Will stay here again next time we're in St. Lucia.

Wonderful accommodation that exceeded our expectations. Very large luxury tent in which we stayed with luxury king-size box spring and very clean. Nice set up which makes the park feel like a Bush. Location close to the centre so you can walk out to eat. Very nice relaxed atmosphere in St. Lucia.

Very clean, friendly, safe and unique. Top quality too! This is such an interesting idea, to be in an urban environment but feel like you're somewhere completely different. This would also make an ideal venue for a group or family visit as it offers a communal setting with private personal accommodation. Well worth visiting.
