In this blog, we will tell you what you need to consider when starting glamping business.
(1) High Privacy
Not like camping, people who are interested in glamping (glampers) care about privacy. In order to keep privacy, it is desirable that the glamping site should not be more than 10 units. Moreover, it is not a good idea to build your glamping resort close to neighboring building. Many glampers are looking for comfort and relaxation, and they don’t want to have noisy neighbors!
(2) Comfortability
According to a scholarly article, glampers tend to stay longer than campers. On average, they stay 10 days. Therefore, it is important for the practitioners to keep in mind that glampers can stay comfortably. Motivations of glampers are like escaping through “fairy tale”, while that of campers are escaping through “adventure”. Target market segment is totally different between campers and glampers. Glampers are more like people who prefer to stay at hotels, mobile homes and private accommodations. You need excellent equipment such as bathroom, sitting areas for guests, and everything needs to be prepared and luxurious. “Luxurious” does not only include the physical features of the accommodations and good food and drinks but also include professional staffs and quality service at all levels, cleanliness, personalized approach and attention that will make your guest feel special.
(3) Location
The most significant motivation of glamping is the desire of tourists to see beautiful places and unforgettable experience in nature. Therefore, location of the glamping resort is also important. Then, because of this pandemic, the close and safe access to such natural environment is essential. Your guests are also interested in genuine interaction with local community. Therefore, researching your local festivals and events close to your glamping resort is required. In addition, by offering unique and authentic experiences such as rafting and hiking, they can be your glamping resort’s unique selling points. Not to mention, it is necessary to think about the access to the availability of water, electricity and sewage at your glamping resort.
(4) Types of Glamping Accommodations
As mentioned above, there are a variety of accommodations type.
– Yurts: Circular tent
– Bell Tents: cone or bell-shaped tent with a central pole for support
– Glamping Pods: A small, curved and wooden structure
– Treehouse: A house built on a tree
– Geo domes: A hemispherical thin-shell structure
