Included in the package is a hamman spa experience where you lay on hot tiles and your massage therapist exfoliates you with Moroccan black soap and someone else rubs you down with Argan oils. Take

The resort says they had a record summer but can't afford to stay open in the winter months.</blockquote>This is some sad news but the resort is taking reservations for the holidays from December 21st to Jan. 2nd.

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/3873/Paperbark_Camp_Luxury_Tent.jpg" class="imgborder"> Say the word "camping" and many of us will run a mile. Alter this to "five-star camping" and it starts to get intriguing. On the south coast of New South Wales, Australia, the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Paperbark+Camp/ian/262374">Paperbark Camp</a> is anything but a humble campsite: it's a bushland collection of twelve luxury safari tents with verandahs and private ensuites (including outside bath tubs to get you close to nature--if you want).The tents are all anchored above the ground so the threat of unwanted animal or insect visitors is low.

annie0007 — 2008-02-19T13:10:54-05:00

If you're headed for Namibia's NamibRand Desert, make sure you have a reservation at the luxury camps of Wolwedans.

There's a reason celebrities like Charlize Theron and the couple known as "Brangelina" have come here (with Maddox and Zahara in tow). Surrounded by striking red sand dunes and mountain ranges, the vast complex features all manner of accomodations, from private chalets to a lodge big enough for a party of 12 -- it's desert camping in high style.
