The stay essentials
The experience
A night under canvas among the lychee trees
Arriving at Gadiamb City. The estate lies in Bassin Plat, a quiet farming and residential area near Saint-Pierre. You reach your tent along the estate's paths, through the lychee forest that gives the place its special atmosphere. With room for 68 guests, it feels intimate despite being a full estate.
The luxury tent. This is what sets Gadiamb apart from ordinary campsites: a tent with a king-size bed, wooden furniture, a private cocoon-style bathtub (a real rarity for outdoor accommodation), a private bathroom and its own private garden. Boutique-hotel comfort under canvas.
The restaurant and the farm. The on-site restaurant serves local Creole food and grills, and the Sunday buffet brunch is one of the estate's specialities. The estate's farm has ponies and horses for activities and rides, and you can also take a farm tour. It's one of the few places where activities are part of the stay.
The location. Saint-Pierre is the island's second city, lively and outdoorsy. Close by are the Saint-Pierre seafront, the Saturday market and plenty of restaurants. Further afield: the wild south (Grande-Anse, Langevin), Piton de la Fournaise an hour away and Entre-Deux 30 minutes away.

FAQ: everything to know before booking
How do you book Gadiamb City?
It's bookable on Booking.com, where the glamping site is rated 8/10 from 191 reviews. Book several weeks ahead in high season (July-August, school holidays).
How much does a night cost?
From €163 a night for 2 people. Prices vary with the season. Sunday brunch and pony and horse activities cost extra.
What is glamping?
Glamping is short for "glamorous camping": an upmarket tent with hotel-level comfort, including a king-size bed, wooden furniture, a private bathroom and a garden. More comfortable than ordinary camping, and closer to nature than a hotel.
Is there really a private bathtub?
Yes, it's one of the estate's stand-out features. Each tent has a round, spa-style cocoon bathtub, tucked away in the tent's own private garden. It's one of the main reasons people book.
How many guests can it take?
17 tents for a maximum of 68 guests. That's small enough to keep things private while still leaving room for shared activities (the restaurant, brunch, the farm).
Are there activities on site?
Yes, the estate has a farm with ponies and horses (activities and rides), farm tours and a Sunday buffet brunch. A real bonus for families.
Is it accessible for guests with reduced mobility?
Yes, the estate has accessible facilities for guests with reduced mobility. Mention it when you book so you get a suitable tent.
