Default Luxury tents.

Have you seen the luxury tents that they have nowadays? My brother took his family to a camp site in France and the tents are like canvas chalets with a separate toilet and shower compartment!

Better have 3-4 people who are competent to do the work.

Well, luxury doesn't always spell quality, although it provides spacious comfort, which doesn't always mean sleeping comfort. Tents from Kelty, MSR and similar companies are too expensive for me although they are the best.

That sounds awesome! I don't think I would be able to put up a tent with all of that in it though. I have enough trouble putting up my tent when I go camping. I would rather not deal with a tent at all but sometimes they come in handy.

I think it depends on how you define luxury tents. I think of most car pop ups or rooftop tents as a luxury tent and they do have their time and place. However a "canvas chalet" sounds a bit excessive.

What would be the point. If you go camping, you go to camp, not to live in a luxury villa. If we had one of those, we would probably live in it.
