This place was absolutely amazing! It's such a cool concept and the whole vibe was so fun. The views are stunning, the tents are awesome and cozy, the staff were so friendly and accommodating, and the camaraderie of the main tent was just wonderful. We will definitely come back and visit other Under Canvas locations as well.

The area is beautiful, the staff is wonderful, the food excellent. The issue is the wood burning stove. It did not have a seal - it leaked too much smoke and it did not heat the tent. The nightly temperature was in the 40s so it was cold. Would we do this site again? Yes, but a month earlier when the stove is not needed. The location is beautiful.

Our tent was impeccably clean, spacious, and featured a wonderfully comfortable king-size bed with soft linens. The wood-burning stove kept us warm and cozy as the desert evenings cooled down. The provided USB battery packs for charging devices and lanterns were thoughtful touches that blended seamlessly into the glamping experience.

We did our research and knew what to expect when it came to showers, electricity, etc. Staff was excellent - very accommodating. We would stay at Under Canvas again. Only slight negative, we underestimated the number of families with small children.

Beware! You may end with a crying baby in the tent next to you and you will not be reimbursed for your sleepless night and will have to ask repeatedly to get a quiet tent. The food quality is poor (I found a hair in my shrimp tacos!) and overpriced (lobster prices were 50% higher then everywhere else we went). The food also lacked flavor and quality. The General Manager demeanor was stern, cold and inhospitable. She scared my daughter after speaking to her in a harsh tone. Also know that UC charges hidden fees for booking off site adventures with them. In general I found the value proposition not worth it.

Staff was wonderful. Thought we would have a water view but didn’t. Food was expensive and limited. No where to swim and there were insects in the tent. No electricity except a small power battery packs and the fans were 3 inches so when it’s hot so are the tents. Chairs are very low which were hard to use. Shower hard to use it was either scalding or cold.
