Things To Bring

Many glamping spots are still situated in outdoor areas such as beaches, and despite the nicer accommodations, it is probably still advisable to bring mosquito repellants and mosquito coils, especially if you have young children.

Some of the glamping destinations may also use shared bathrooms so toiletries and towels are another essential. Power banks are also another key item as tents do not come with power supplies and devices or torchlights may need a recharge.
