The Best New Resorts in the World
As much as the mid-range glamping resort is thriving, it’s the ultra-high-end proposition that’s truly resonating with travelers.
Sonny Vrebac, co-owner of Bubbletent—a property overlooking Capertee Valley, the world’s second-largest canyon—says he’s learned that the hard way. He created three different types of tents, one fancier than the next, only to diagnose himself with what he calls the “grand cru Champagne problem.” He gets disproportionate demand for the highest-end of the bunch, a bubble with both climate control and its own outdoor wood-fired hot tub.
Back in Costa Rica, Nayara’s Ghitis shouldn’t have that problem. “I’ve already blown my budget ten times,” he joked, saying he’s working towards creating the most luxurious tented camp in the world. “But if what you were looking for was to maximize profits, you wouldn’t be building a tented camp. You do it because you’re thinking about legacy.”
