Glamping with Ctents, a customer's view

Several steps ahead

Our customers are always several steps ahead of us in generating ideas of how to use our luxury glamping tents, Ctents, to create unique spaces where to relax and enjoy a deserved resting time.

This is the recreation of a resort which is being designed by a client for a tourist glamping resort in a Mexico’s island. Every tent has its own terrace where to have a drink or a siesta in a hanging hammock under the shadow of a wooden pergola.

Glamping is a growing business for a more demanding public who prefer to spend their holidays in a natural environment. Luxury has not to be something incompatible with nature.

As the first travellers into Africa did when they took into the middle of the savannah most of the luxury they could find at a nice hotel, nowadays glamping trend has made us to discover how to enjoy the luxury inside a big size tent that allows for an adult to stand fully upright and move freely without any obstacle inside or around and that is fully waterproof.

A luxury glamping tent with a kingsize bed and a wardrobe inside and with a cover terrace outside, either by the tent porch or by a custom made terrace as the one of our friends in Mexico is the best place for relaxing this summer or even to enjoy along the whole year.

The owners of the glamping have selected Ctents as the luxury glamping tents to equipe their resort.

They have been very careful with the environment and very respectful to the nature and they have accomplished a very attractive tourist development, completely integrated in the middle of the forest.

The three Ctents used are of model Ctents Easy Porch 450 of 10 m2. They have been installed on wodden platforms that include a nice terrace, from where to have a spectacular view of the sorrounding valley.

At the glamping site, a full service is offered, with a nice restaurant where the selected clients can have a nice dinner or lunch and they can also to have their breakfast served at their tents.

Ctents have a PVC flysheet separated about 30 cm from the inner body which protects the users against rain and keep the tent always dry inside. This configuration is ideal for the rainy place where Maloca is located.

Glamping wedding, have a great time!

How to choose the best tents to have a great glamping wedding?

Glamping wedding at lake

The human beings who lives in cities needs to recover contact with nature. This is one of the powerful reasons that are increasingly driving glamping around the world, and one of its trends, after the luxury resorts and tented music festivals with glamping areas, are glamping weddings.

Glamping wedding at the beach

It is an unstoppable trend that disrupts wedding celebrations, in which the banquet and disco had a traditional role, and at the same time begin to recover, without realizing that, the oldest tradition in which guests to the wedding spent several spare days celebrating with the bride and groom.

Glamping weddings consist of this, camping in nature, but now without giving up the comfort of a hotel accommodation.

Glamping wedding at night

This form of celebration in which the guests are housed in a tent at an attractive natural environment, allows a return to the campfire that always stimulates the lively conversations, shared experiences and  music, and facilitates the relationship between the attendees.

The glamping weddings are getting more and more presence among the preferences of the brides and grooms and therefore are emerging more and more companies offering this type of service.

Glamping suite for bride and groom

If you are thinking of organizing a glamping wedding, there are some details that you should take into account in order to make the experience of your relatives, friends and guests a memorable experience in which unforeseen accidents that coul ruin your wedding cannot arise and the comfort of the accommodation is an element of an unforgettable experience.

In all the weddings, it is quite normal for some of the guests to drink some more alcohol than it would be advisable, which leads to a less balance control, so, it is essential not to incorporate obstacles in the space destined to the celebration that could cause accidents.

Glamping wedding, family accomodation

It is well known that most tents on the market need guy ropes to keep them firmly in place. The ropes represent a double obstacle, on the one hand, it is a thin rope tramp that crosses the surrounding space around the tents, and on the other, the pegs are elements where easyly step on, if not enough attention is given, either due to distractions or to the effects of alcohol, or to both together, the fall is assured, which can turn a memorable happy celebration into a bad memory.

Glamping wedding at the forest

In addition, for the guests’ comfort, who are going to have to change their dresses during the time of celebration, what they are going to do in the interior of their glamping tents, it is imperative that the tents have the sufficient height, so that it is possible to stand in them with comfort and to move freely, without obstacles inside, so that one can feel at home, or as in the best hotel room.

Finally, a key element for the comfort of the guests is the inner temperature, always lower at night and higher in the sunlight, sometimes in excess. To achieve this, it is imperative that the chosen tents have an effective thermal insulation system that reduces the inner temperature in the summer and allows a more pleasant inner temperature during the night.

Glamping comfort at nature

To achieve a glamping wedding that all guests remember in an unforgettable way it is a must to choose high quality glamping tents that offer all these characteristics: free of obstacles inside and around, inner amplitude that allows to move freely with comfort and thermal isolation.

What to expect from a luxury glamping tent?

Craftsmanship and luxury glamping tents, something that shouldn't go separated.
When we think of luxury products we usually think of products that have been developed with care by experienced artisans, of stories of fine craftsmanship, of products which have been produced with time enough, with no hurries, products that can stand for many years to come, that can be distinguished by its high quality and that will differentiate their owners and give them a touch of distinction.

When we hear talk about luxury glamping tents it is becoming more and more common to find that quite a lot of standard tents are considered to be luxury tents only for their inner decoration or the site where they have been set up. 

But, as it happens with a luxury home, a luxury yacht or a luxury car, a standard tent can hardly be considered a luxury one, because it is not only about a fine decoration issue, it is also important to find the signs of luxury in every corner and detail of the tent.

ERebull, the  manufacturer of luxury glamping tents Ctents, has brought together several disciplines in order to produce a final product that can be appreciated for its high quality.

First of all the industrial design, Emilio Rebull who studied architecture in Canada, is the designer of Ctents. He has been working in industrial design and architecture for more than thirty years and has put to work all his knowledge on Ctents design.

The company has brought together a group of skilled workers and artisanal workshops specialized in sewing, and metal and fiberglass works like cutting, folding, mechanizing or welding.

Also the Ctents team has make a thorough selection of the materials used in the tents: fabrics, zippers, fiberglass, steel and every single component needed to produce the tent.

A care hand work, piece by piece, allows to reach the highest standards in each detail.

The result: a glamping luxury tent that can stand firmly adverse weather conditions, hundreds of assembly/dissasembly operations and last for years.

Every unit is checked before it is shipped to the customer and the experience of the clients is analized carefully in order to continuosly improve the tents design and performance.

Every detail has been thought having in mind the user's comfort; pieces that are strong and robust enough and that have been made with care and, of course, have been well designed.

A highly experienced team of craftspersons put their wisdom in every detail to reach the highest quality, so clients can be satisfied because they really get what they are paying for.

THE TWILIGHT OF TRAILER TENTS

What  I want a trailer tent for?

If I am thinking in buying a trailer tent, there must be some reasons for that.

1) First of all I want to have a quite large space to use as a temporary home when I am travelling with my car, van, or camper (whatever that is what I have).

2) Having a totally portable home, occupying a reduced space.

3) Being able to transport it easily thanks to its low weight.



4) Being able to assemble it in a short period of time, in order to enjoy it as soon as possible.

5) Being able to package it easily, so I can have it ready for next use.

6) Finally, having all that, at a reasonable price.

If we agree these are valid reasons to buy a trailer tent, then what we should do is to examine each one of them in order to check a trailer tent is the right answer to these challenges.

Let's check then all these reasons one by one:

1) If I am looking for space, then maybe it could be better to think of a tent, one which can offer me space enough; there are a few choices in the market.

2) A trailer tent do not seem the best answer to this need, because, even being it portable and can be placed at chosen site, I have to carry a towing all along my travel. It is not so comfortable to drive with a towing joined to my vehicle, particularly when trying to find a parking place, while driving on a winding road, going up or down mountains or near the sea shore, and is an added cost if I am taking the ferry, for instance. In addition, I need a place to park it at home. And a special driving license!

3) Most of tent trailes weight more around 500 kg or more, this is not really low weight, I have the extra cost of fuel to be able to move the trailer on the road, and it is not so easy to move when I am trying to place it on the site I have chosen and already have separated it from my vehicle. I can asure you I can find many tents much more lighter than a trailer tent.

4) Not all the tents are easy to assembly and many of them cannot be assembled in few minutes, that could be an advantage for a trailer tent, but, what if I can find a tent much more easier to assembly than a trailer tent, that allows me to enjoy 18 sqm in only 15 minutes, without tools?

5) One advantage of a trailer tent is that usually is easy to pack and as every pieces has its own place, it can be put on its place without loosing any piece. But, some tents are also very easy to pack.

6) Tailer tents are not specially cheap, also I should add the collateral costs: adequate driving license for towing, extra fuel cost, extra parking costs, space needed at home to store it, hmmmm.

If I consider the advantages and disadvantages of a trailer tent, I quickly become conscious that a good tent that satisfy all my needs is, for sure, a much more better solution. But, there is any?

Ctents

Fortunately, the answer is YES, Ctents is a tent that can be easiliy assembled, it weights less than 100 kilos, can be easily packaged and carried in any kind of vehicle (without towing!) and best of all, its price is really competitive!

So, for me the election its clear, Ctents has made of the trailer tents an invention of the past.

Still time for Glamping?

Are the glamping tents comfortable enough for users?

No vacations past summer, too much work, short money.

Finally I decided to have a rest, what to do? Glamping!

I think this is a really enjoyable way for spending few days away. First, to fit the standard, then, to find the place.


Fitting the standard


Not so easy, maybe I fixed a very high standard, but I wnted to have room enough inside the tent for being able of keeping my erect position, being able to stand up and move freely inside the tent, not so easy.

Then I reject any place where I couldn't walk around my tent without obstacles, really difficult! Why so many tents still use old fashion guy ropes? Haven't we learned anything new since Roman era?

But those two seemed to me very easy requisites after trying to find a place where tents were at list a bit thermally isolated, very hard task!!, so difficult to find any! The point should be to have two separeted layers which can keep an air chamber in between capable of reducing the thermal transmission.

Is all that to much to ask for?

Finally I found what I was looking for www.ctents.com

Find the place


Once you have found the right glamping tent, then you know that any place where a tent like this is located must be a place pleasent enough to spend some unforgotable holidays.
