What is glamping?
An experience close to nature
A portmanteau of “glamour” and “camping,” glamping offers a new way to enjoy outdoor vacations. Here, nature takes center stage: trees surround your patio, days are spent outdoors, and evenings stretch on under the starry sky.
Whether it’s a lodge tent, cabin, cottage, or unique lodging, your cozy retreat is already set up to welcome you. As soon as you arrive, unpack your bags and settle into the vacation rhythm.
In the morning, take your time. A few rays of sunshine, coffee on the patio, the kids playing outside… Then let your desires guide the rest of the day. A swim? A walk? A culinary adventure? The choice is yours.
The charm of the great outdoors with a touch of comfort
Glamping strikes a balance between immersion in nature and the art of living. The accommodations offer pleasant spaces to gather, share a meal, or simply savor the peaceful surroundings.
Each destination has its own unique character. Some invite you to live in tune with the ocean’s rhythm, while others immerse you in lush countryside or bring you closer to rivers and rolling hills.
At a campground in the countryside, your vacation naturally takes on the feel of a bucolic escape: local markets, bike rides, and lunches on the terrace punctuate each day.
Another Way to Experience Outdoor Lodging
Glamping celebrates beautiful spaces, distinctive accommodations, and shared experiences. At a 4-star or 5-star campground, tailor your stay around the amenities that bring you joy.
A water park for family afternoons, a restaurant to sample local flavors, a wellness center to pamper yourself, or activities to liven up your vacation—each destination offers its own unique experience.
Your only mission? To enjoy yourself.
