What is the difference between Luxury Frontiers’ concepts and “glamping”?

Quintessential “glamping” concepts aim to bring guests close to nature, however, due to their off-the-grid site locations, offerings are largely simple. The typical “glamping” tent is a prospector or safari type tent with little to no weather-proofing and with minimal infrastructure in place. For example, these tents may or may not have en-suite bathrooms, running water, or electricity....

-Luke Bailes
CEO, Singita

The future of the high-end luxury business is in enhancing brand reputation through authentic leadership in social and environmental responsibility…The average daily rate for Luxury Frontiers’ ‘room under canvas’ can enhance the position of the hotel and add mystique to the destination.

-Herve Humler
President & COO, Ritz-Carlton

After witnessing Luxury Frontiers’ innovative designs and out-of-the-box thinking at their Belmond Eagle Island Lodge and Abu Camp projects in Botswana, we hired the firm and they have translated these skills over to Nayara in full force. I am delighted by their world-class execution of the design and development process and wholeheartedly foresee a final product which exceeds all market expectations.

Nature approved luxury suites

At Luxury Frontiers, we’re experts when it comes to the growing experiential travel market segment. From resort developers and guests to mother nature and authentic experiences.

A Premier Global Expert

When it comes to the conceptualization, design, planning, and execution of experiential projects for resort developers, we pride ourselves in composing best-in-class projects thoughtfully and mindfully. We do this all without sacrificing sustainability or sophistication. Not only to minimize our footprint, but to complement the extraordinary environments our projects share.

Industry Leadership

Beyond a temporary trend, experiential travel is a fundamental shift in consumer behavior. With our team’s experience in designing, developing, and/or operating some of the world’s most distinguished experiential lodging properties, we are an industry leader and connector in this space.

Experiences

We believe a resort is exponentially more than the physical structures it is comprised of. Using a site’s natural and cultural assets, our highly-skilled team frames the guest’s eco-sensitive and transformational journey and empowers that journey throughout the design and development stages.

Alternative Building Methods

There are situations in which non-conventional materials and practices—such as canvas, recycled materials, bamboo, and renewable energy sources—need to meet our natural environment. These light-on-earth designs are where we shine.
