"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.

"I was in Siwa with friends. This trip was exceptional, I met wonderful people. The owner, Ahmed, was an exceptionally wonderful person. He asked us every day if we needed anything."

"Close to store , restaurants and sea. Even pizza on site run by the excellent hostess , Natalie."

Had a bit of unfinished look about the premises though the geodesic domes were great.

"Amazing, unbelievable, untouched nature. If you like camping, search no more! Great value for the price, comfy tents and great food. Also, you have free equipment to explore the lake..."

Road to the camp is not in the best conditions.

"Our stay was amazing! The staff was super nice, they organized a transfer from Lompoul sur Mer to the location, they came with us to the beach and played football together with mbalax, then they came with us to the nearby desert and helped us organize a cab to Dakar airport. The food was also really good. Overall it has been an excellent stay!"

"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

"It was a very comfortable and nice looking place and I got the value for my money. The views were amazing as well."

The staff was kind of noisy in the morning, especially by the kitchen.

"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.

"Beduin glamping at its finest. Clean rooms, good Jordanean breakfast, staff friendly and helpful. The camp has been meticulously prepared and would have been a hive of activity if the current political situation in the surrounding countries mean we were the only guests. Come and support this accommodation venue."

Being a camp, power was generator supplied only from 7pm to midnight. This was the case with other camps we stayed in also. Hard to find as with all camps, call owner for help.

"Super friendly and accommodating hosts. Beautiful views, beautiful accommodations. Highly recommended! The road up the mountain is not for the faint hearted - do not hesitate to ask the hosts to help you."

"Super fint telt med masser af plads til tre personer. Dejlig morgenmad, som blev leveret ved teltet. Teltene lå i pæn afstand, så man havde lidt privatliv. Sødt og hjælpsomt personale."

Stedet ligger i et område, hvor der ikke er så meget i nærheden.

"Spacious huts, clean facilities and great views of the surroundings."

Absence of staff

"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.

"It’s not in the center BUT I got picked up with the motorbike and brought back to the center the next day. It’s directly to the caves so you can be the first in the cave the next morning after a night in the nature with a beautiful nightsky"

"A very romantic place perfect for couples who like wild retreats"

It is hard to think of something i did not like. Overall the experience was great.
