Nestled in the heart of New Brunswick, Cielo Glamping Maritime promises a unique and luxurious escape for families seeking an unforgettable experience. As a family of four, we recently embarked on a weekend getaway at CIELO, opting for the comfort of their two-bedroom pearl dome. Spoiler alert: it exceeded all expectations! 🤩 Here is our review of Cielo Glamping New Brunswick.
The pretty drive:
Embarking on a picturesque journey during the autumn season, the drive itself unfolded as a breathtaking prelude to the unforgettable experience that awaited us. The landscape painted in hues of red, orange, and gold, showcased nature’s vibrant transition. As we navigated through a tapestry of colorful trees, anticipation and excitement mounted, foreshadowing the extraordinary escape that awaited us at Cielo Glamping Maritime.
This drive had echoes of our trip to Fogo Island in Newfoundland, farther east in Canada. I’m thoroughly convinced that the east coast is simply a visual treat, especially when driving during the fall!
Arrival and Check-In:
Arrived! Upon our arrival, we were warmly greeted at the reception where the staff explained every detail about our dome, ensuring we felt completely at home. They handed us the key, or rather, the code to unlock our door, a modern touch that added to the seamless experience of our stay.
The reception area wasn’t just a functional space; it doubled as a bar restaurant (which we will talk about later) and a gourmet boutique store — a treasure trove of local delights. From savory meats and cheeses to delectable jams and snacks, the store showcased the best of the region’s flavors. The selection extended beyond culinary delights, featuring stylish apparel, practical kitchen gadgets, and even handcrafted art pieces that begged to find a place in our home. It was a real variety store, offering a piece of the local culture to take home as a memento of our glamping adventure.
Accommodation:
Our 2-bedroom “Moonsnail Pearl” dome was a cocoon of comfort and charm for our family of 4! The spacious interior featured a full queen bed in the bedroom, adorned with plush linens that ensured a restful night’s sleep. The private bathroom was a luxurious touch, complete with fresh towels, soap, shampoo and general toiletries — adding a layer of convenience to our glamping experience.
What’s more, the dome also boasted a fireplace that not only added a rustic charm but also warmed up the entire space, creating a cozy ambiance. The loft, equipped with another queen bed, became an instant favorite for the kids. What sets this dome apart is the roof of the loft, offering a mesmerizing view of the night sky — a feature that turned our nights into a celestial spectacle.
Amenities:
Cielo Glamping Maritime is not just about a place to sleep; it’s about creating an immersive experience. The full kitchen was a culinary haven, stocked with everything one might need to whip up a feast. From pans and plates to glasses, cutlery, and knives, the kitchen left no room for culinary desires unmet. It was a joy to prepare meals in such a well-equipped space! The owners really did a great job thinking of everything you need! 😉
Adding a layer of fun to our culinary adventure was the Green Egg BBQ provided in your very own private deck with jacuzzi! As the sun goes down, grilling our own food outdoors became a family affair, fostering a sense of togetherness and adventure — the aroma of sizzling meats wafting through the air.
Stargazing:
Cielo Glamping Maritime capitalizes on its idyllic location, away from the city lights, making it a haven for stargazers. The roof of our loft transformed into our private observatory, allowing us to marvel at the constellations and lose ourselves in the vastness of the night sky. It’s an experience that words struggle to capture but one that etches itself into your memory.
Recreation:
The array of board games provided by Cielo Glamping Maritime was a delightful surprise! From classic favorites to modern gems, our family enjoyed quality time together, fostering laughter and friendly competition. It was a reminder of the simple joys that often get overshadowed in our fast-paced lives.
The Beach:
One of the unexpected highlights of our stay was the proximity to the beach. Taking advantage of the beautiful weather, we found ourselves playing in the sand along the shore. Our beach exploration took an exciting turn as we strolled, discovering a treasure trove of oysters. Armed with a bucket, we collected these coastal gems, eager to savor the taste of the sea back at our dome. It was a spontaneous and memorable adventure that added an extra layer of excitement to our glamping experience.
Culinary Delights:
Cielo Glamping Maritime not only pampers your senses with its unique accommodations but also tantalizes your taste buds. We indulged in their exquisite oysters and devoured one of the tastiest charcuterie boards there is! What elevated our culinary experience even further was the thoughtful touch of a free coupon (waiting by the foot of our bed 🙂) to redeem complimentary drinks at their restaurant bar—The Hub. This added a social dimension to our stay, allowing us to unwind with handcrafted beverages in a stylish and relaxed setting.
Cielo Glamping Maritime goes above and beyond to cater to all members of the family. The kids were not left out of the culinary adventure; they were treated to complimentary “mocktails” as well! 😉🍹 What a nice touch!
Relaxation in the Jacuzzi:
After a day of exploration and gastronomic delights, we unwound in the jacuzzi hot tub. The soothing warmth and bubbles were a hit with the kids, creating a perfect ending to our days filled with adventure.
Conclusion:
Cielo Glamping Maritime in New Brunswick is not just accommodation; it’s a destination that weaves together comfort, adventure, and nature’s wonders. Our family of four found solace, excitement, and joy in every corner of the pearl dome, making it a retreat we’ll fondly remember.
