    Complimentary breakfast was good overall; cabin was spacious, temperature controlled, and relatively bug-free

    We spent two nights in one of the Deluxe Eco King tents and absolutely loved it. The tent was spacious, clean and very well equipped - even with a hot water bottle for cold nights. Spending time on the patio watching the sunset was magical.

    Location in the park is great. Tents are comfy, though shower and toilet are outdoors and women need to hang a towel over the half-wall to ensure privacy after a shower. Young, international staff very helpful and friendly.
