The staff at Palo Alto Glamping was absolutely amazing. I was welcomed with smiling face and warm hearts from the moment I checked in. The staff is extremely accommodating. The bartender Anthony makes the most amazing craft cocktails and provided excellent services. The concierge was able to assist with booking horseback riding and a private tour of a waterfall. The chocolate scrub and massage that I received was amazing as well. The domes were huge with comfy beds, great a/c, clean, and comfortable. The bathroom provided an amazing tropical experience while showering with the beautiful plants hanging over head. Last but not least the food was 5 star worthy. The chef makes the most amazing dishes that are extremely affordable.

Bon établissement avec un service de qualité, seul problème pour nous le dôme est bruyant avec la pluie et dans un pays tropical la pluie est quotidienne. Difficile de se reposer. Le dôme est à laver nous l’avons approché avec une veste et les dépôts végétal sont tachés le vêtement. Peu accessible au mobilité réduite.
