Glamping right by the water is a dream come true for city folk like us who shy away from camping. It's ironic that we want to be close to nature but have our doubts. Close for us means seen through a window, at a safe distance from bugs, and in a comfy bed. Luckily, the 21st century has found a way for those who aren't ready to give up hotel luxury—complete with views you usually pay extra for. We've rounded up 10 places where you'll sleep like royalty and, still in your pajamas, stroll straight to the water at dawn. Here, no one minds if you're in a robe or sipping gourmet pour-over or 3-in-1 coffee. Often you'll find top-notch amenities too—pools, hot tubs, saunas, and breakfasts delivered right to your tent flap.

We're kicking off the list with a real hit! On the slope in Sterławki Średnie in the Masuria region, you'll find luxury tents overlooking Lake Dejguny. Each has a terrace—perfect for morning coffee. Under the canvas, there's a bedroom, a kitchenette, even an herb garden. Seriously, everything you need is here. And breakfast? Every morning, you'll get a basket full of local goodies delivered right to your tent flap. As if that weren't enough, there are two beaches, two heated pools with lake views, kayaks, SUP boards, even a solar-powered catamaran, plus bikes to chase the wind across the fields. Pack the kids and head here for family fun. There's a great playground, a shallow wading pool, and gently sloping lake beaches. But enough praise—just read what one guest said.
'Everything you could need is on site. The tents are fully equipped, offering a premium luxury standard. Heated pool, playground, fire pit, direct access to the lake. We're truly impressed. Every morning, baskets with a luxurious breakfast. Huge thanks for the amazing service—kudos to the owners for an outstanding team! We'll definitely be back. To anyone undecided about staying at Glamila Holiday Village, we warmly encourage you. You won't find anything better. Wishing all vacationers a sunny summer!'

This time, the glamping on our waterfront list lands on a Kashubian oasis by a peat lake—perfect for a swim. There are only three intimate safari tents, each 25 m², styled in boho chic. A bonus? A covered terrace with a fireplace right on the shore. You can sway in a hammock and listen to the frogs' chatter, or grab one of the on-site bikes and explore scenic trails leading to the lobelia lakes or the town of Bytów. On-site, you can also join free Tai Chi and Qigong sessions. Trust us—you'll want to order the breakfast baskets here: local ingredients to prepare your meal and enjoy on the terrace. Though it's mostly a hideaway for couples and solo travelers, older kids (7+) will love it too. Hosts Iza and Andrzej are incredibly friendly and always ready to help, creating a welcoming atmosphere.
'A beautiful, authentic place designed and prepared down to the smallest detail. The hosts were kind, helpful, and nothing was missing. We could relax without a care in the world. Silence, peace, fresh air, and unforgettable stargazing. The fireplace spots were perfect for romantic evenings. We highly recommend the breakfasts—delicious and varied, and eating them in this setting was pure joy. We can't wait to visit again!'

Step into the owl's hollow in the wild heart of Lubusz Voivodeship, where the Drawa River murmurs just meters from your bed. Nestled among trees, there are only three year-round yurts inspired by Mongolian tents but with a sleek, modern twist. Each unit has a cozy bedroom, dining nook, bathroom with shower, kitchenette, fireplace, and a terrace with a built-in hammock. As in traditional yurts, there's a skylight in the roof for stargazing. Breakfast baskets arrive at your door every morning. Five-star forest resort? Check—there's a wood-fired hot tub, a sauna overlooking the woods, and a hot-water tub among the trees. But before you dip in, start your day with a kayaking trip on the Drawa or bike exploration through the Drawieński National Park. Maybe you'll spot an otter.
'A wonderful spot for a forest retreat. The yurts are fully equipped with everything you need, making the stay very comfortable. There are plenty of amenities—tub, hot tub, sauna, fire pit, loungers, hammocks—ideal for relaxing away from city noise. The hosts are very kind, open, and helpful. Highly recommended; I can't wait to return!'

Alright, here's another gem. We present a hideaway for couples in the Kujawy region, where instead of classic tents, you'll find two out-of-this-world spheres with hotel-standard comfort. Inside each sphere there's a fully equipped kitchenette, a comfy bed, bathroom, fireplace, and a home cinema. You can literally watch your favorite series on a large screen pulled down from the ceiling, all from bed. Lake Rogówko is just a five-minute walk through the forest. Another highlight? A private jacuzzi hot tub and a sauna. You don't need to worry about meals either—every morning you'll receive baskets of local delights and fresh bread baked by the hosts. We can also plan your day: bike rental on site, SUP boarding, boat rides, or an evening bonfire. Plus, pets are welcome here—it's very dog-friendly.
'A magical place! Peace and quiet—just what you need to relax and recharge. Surrounded by forest, with a lake only five minutes away. The private hot tub is spot-on for chilly evenings under charming outdoor lights, and the fireplace is perfect indoors. The glamp is beautifully decorated, and the kitchen nook has everything for a meal. The outdoor electric grill is also very handy. Autumn evenings are perfect for Netflix on the projector or a board game. An enchanting place I can't wait to return to. Highly recommend!'

We're hopping across Poland like kangaroos and landing this time in Greater Poland. Right over the water, you'll find four tents on platforms built above Lake Dormowskie, with another four on the shore. There's also a charming cabin on a sandy beach with a gentle lake access. You can choose whether you want to float above the water, stay dry on shore, or soak up the sandy view. It's a full attraction package included: hot tub, sauna, SUPs, rowboats, pedal boats, and kayaks. There's even a boat cruise with a grill and a hot tub on deck. Hosts Julia and Filip create a family-friendly vibe and serve royal-level meals with bread from their own bakery. They welcome families with children aged 7 and up. Pet lovers rejoice—it's completely dog-friendly.
'This was my first glamping experience and certainly not the last! Freedolina is a wonderful place to truly unwind. We stayed in a tent over the pond, waking each day to the sounds of nature—croaking frogs and birdsong. Each tent has its own bathroom, plus a communal kitchen nearby with full amenities. There's a small beach with a jetty, plenty of hammocks, lounge chairs, and swing seats—every corner is a chill zone. A standout feature is the lakeside jacuzzi and sauna. During our sunny stay, we also had a bonfire and watched a movie on the outdoor screen. In short: it's a wonderful spot, we'll definitely return, and we recommend it to everyone.'

We now move to the heart of the Świętokrzyskie region, where a single yurt is hidden among meadows grazed by donkeys. Sounds wonderful? Read on. Here, you'll hear the forest and a little stream, and vegan breakfasts will tickle your taste buds. Inside, a fireplace and underfloor heating mean this yurt stay isn't about roughing it. There's a cozy bed, kitchenette, and a large terrace where donkeys come by every morning. You can also pet the cats and Pestka the dog. It's a peaceful retreat for families and anyone seeking a total reset from city life. Keep in mind this is an authentic village, so you may encounter flies, and sorry—no pets allowed.
'Staying in the yurt was a wonderful adventure (and let me add, it's absolutely not "survival"—the yurt is fully equipped, living there feels like an apartment). The donkeys made every moment delightful. Nothing lifts your spirits like petting these gentle animals :) The owner was very friendly and helpful, and shared fascinating stories about the donkeys. All in all, the yurt farm with donkeys is simply the perfect place for body and soul, for anyone who loves being close to nature.'

This time our pin lands in Lower Silesia. We want to introduce you to a truly unique spot: a 100 m² tent shaped like a house, with hotel-style comfort. It's on the edge of a forest next to the Mała Panew River's wetlands. With fabric walls, your alarm could be goose honks or cranes calling nearby. Inside, it feels nothing like a tent: two comfortable bedrooms, a full kitchen, bathroom, and a spacious terrace. Breakfast baskets prepared by hosts Bożena and Rafał, using products from their farm, complete the picture. Country life calls for no rush. Burn off extra energy by biking (equipment on site), fishing (gear provided), practicing yoga, or diving into the nearby lakes. The Mała Panew River is perfect for kayaking. It's ideal for families with older children (8+) and couples seeking peace. Due to the many hens, roosters, and geese roaming the yard, please leave pets at home.
'A wonderful, magical place crafted with care by the delightful hosts. The pastoral setting was exactly the retreat we needed. The glamp is beautifully furnished and well equipped, and the breakfast basket was delicious! We wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking to recharge and escape the daily rush and noise.'

Next up, a glamping with a pool on the edge of the small Masurian village of Pelnik, overlooking Lake Isąg. Beyond the lake view and pool, there are six classic bell tents on wooden platforms. Inside each you'll find a double bed and the option for an extra single bed. The glamp's hub is a shared house with a fully equipped kitchen, living room, and bathrooms. There's also an outdoor hot tub and a fire pit. It's perfect for couples, families with older kids (preschool and teens), and anyone wanting to unplug. Spend your time kayaking, SUP boarding, biking, or fishing on this quiet, no-motor lake. The real highlight is hosts Karolina and Maciek, who pour their hearts into making your stay comfortable.
'We visited Karolina and Maciek's glamp for the second time and highly recommend it! The tents are comfortable, spaced so you don't hear neighbors. The communal building has a spacious, well-equipped kitchen and a cozy living area. Right next door is the lake with a small beach and forest. An oasis of calm and relaxation. But the greatest asset is the incredibly helpful hosts: Karolina and Maciek, who put so much love into this place—you can feel and appreciate that vibe. Highly recommended. We'll be back.'

Hop over to Roztocze, where on a narrow dike surrounded by 220 hectares of ponds sit two year-round yurts—Marco Polo and Genghis Khan—and two safari tents called Sienkiewicz and Hemingway. Exotic vibes, right? No need to consult an atlas; just head toward Puszcza Solska. Each yurt and tent has a bathroom, kitchenette, and terrace with water views. Foodies, take note: every morning, breakfast baskets with local produce arrive on your terrace, and the seasonal restaurant next door serves fish from its own breeding. If sunbathing on a lounger makes you restless, dive into the sauna, grab a SUP or rowboat, or bike along the nearby Green Velo trails. Anglers, get your spinning rods ready, but remember catch-and-release rules here.
'I don't remember the last time we relaxed this much. We'd planned sightseeing and kayaking but ended up hardly leaving the yurt. The silence is overwhelming, and the terrace with its private jetty is perfect for fishing. The kids loved sleeping in the loft. The owners were discreet but always available. The generous breakfast basket easily fed our family of four. The restaurant served delicious, fresh fish in every form. There's a sauna too. If you're looking for rest—highly recommended!'

Finally, last but far from least, an absolutely unique glamping in the Kuyavian region. On a tiny peninsula overlooking the crystal-clear Lake Chełmżyńskie stand six cosmic sleeping spheres. Each has a plush bed, private kitchenette, bathroom, and even air conditioning—luxury beyond a scout's wildest dreams. But this isn't a survival camp; it's a wellness retreat. There's a sauna, a lakeside hot tub, and a private sandy beach. The hedonistic experience is topped off with breakfast options in four styles, delivered to your glamp (seasonally and on weekends). Once you've loosened up those shoulders and fueled up, you can bike, kayak, or ride a pedal boat.
'A wonderful place I'll keep returning to! Everything is prepared at the highest level. The glamps (we stayed in the Sailing Sphere) are fully equipped, clean, spacious, and perfect for relaxation. There are plenty of extra activities—hot tub, kayaks, bikes, bonfire, and blissful lounging on the beach (loungers, hammocks, swing) or on your own terrace. Plus the stunning, tranquil lakeside setting with sunsets worth a million. Huge congratulations to the hosts for creating such a wonderful place, and special thanks to Agnieszka for her warm welcome and the friendly atmosphere she brought. We'll return many times—see you soon!'
