Glamping Dome

So you want to start a glamping business with glamping tents (or in our case, domes), but don’t know where to start?

Here's the thing: glamping isn't just about putting a fancy tent in the bush anymore. It's about creating spaces that make people stop, breathe, and think "I never want to leave." That's where King Domes come in. We don't just sell you a structure and wave goodbye—we walk with you from that first spark of an idea to the day your guests start booking.

Whether you're turning land into income, building a retreat that heals, or creating something guests will rave about for years—we've done this before. We know what works, what doesn't, and how to make your glamping site not just viable, but wildly successful. Let's build something worth staying for.

WHAT SIZE GLAMPING DOMES ARE RIGHT FOR ME?

It comes down to two things: the experience you want to create, and the price point you’re aiming for. A 5m dome is perfect for the minimalist glamper who wants comfort without the fuss. A 6m gives you room to breathe—and room for a proper bathroom. A 7m? That’s where luxury kicks in. Below, we’ll walk you through what each size offers, so you can choose the one that fits your vision (and your budget).

5m King Dome: The Entry-Level Enchanter

Compact Coziness,
Unlimited Charm.

Where smart design meets effortless comfort. Perfect for those who don't need much—just enough to feel like everything.

What you're getting:

  • Size: 5 metres across, 2.9 metres tall at the peak
  • Space inside: About 19.6m²—think a large bedroom with room to move
  • Built to handle: Winds up to 120 km/h (that’s cyclone-level strong) and snow loads up to 50 kg/m²
  • Frame: Heavy-duty steel that won’t rust or buckle
  • Cover: Thick, UV-resistant, 100% waterproof PVC that lasts 8–10 years
  • What’s included: Frame, cover, lockable door, 3 mesh windows, blackout curtains, solar-powered fan
  • Optional extras: Full insulation ($3,325), porthole windows ($1,800), bathroom window ($750)

In plain English: This dome is small but mighty. It'll stand up to Australian weather without breaking a sweat, and it's designed to be set up in 1–2 days.

Think of this as your "glamping studio." You can comfortably fit:

  • A queen or king bed
  • A compact ensuite (shower + toilet)
  • A small seating area or kitchenette
  • Storage for luggage and essentials

It's not massive, but it's smart. Every inch works. Perfect for couples who want a cozy, intimate escape without feeling cramped.

Best for:

  • Budget-conscious glamping sites that still want to wow guests
  • Couples’ getaways where the focus is on nature, not square footage
  • Yoga or meditation pods for wellness retreats
  • Personal retreat spaces on your own property
  • Eco-resorts in mild climates where guests spend most of their time outdoors

If your guests are the adventurous type who just need somewhere beautiful to rest their heads at night, the 5m is your winner.

6m King Dome: The Happy Medium

Not Too Big, Not Too Small—Just Right.

  • Optional extras: Full insulation ($4,085), skylight ($500), chimney port for wood stove ($750), porthole windows ($1,800), bathroom window ($750)

In plain English: This is the all-rounder. Big enough to feel luxurious, small enough to stay affordable. It handles every season like a champ.

This is where things get interesting. You can fit:

  • A king bed
  • A full bathroom (shower, toilet, vanity)
  • A kitchenette with sink, fridge, and prep space
  • A lounge area with seating
  • Storage and a dining nook

Basically, everything your guests need to feel at home—without ever wanting to leave.

The steel frame will last 15–20 years with basic care. The outer cover lasts 8–10 years depending on UV exposure. We can replace covers when needed, and the frame keeps going strong.

Absolutely. Every dome is wind-rated to 120 km/h (cyclone-level) and snow-rated to 50 kg/m². They're engineered specifically for Australian conditions—coastal humidity, alpine cold, outback heat. They'll handle it.

It depends on your location and how you're using them. For temporary or semi-permanent glamping, often no. For permanent habitable accommodation, usually yes. We provide full engineering documentation to make approval easier.

Yes. The 6m and 7m domes fit full bathrooms and kitchenettes comfortably. All domes have base entry points for plumbing and electrical. We can guide you through the layout.

5m dome: 1–2 days. 6m dome: 1.5–2 days. 7m dome: 2–3 days. With a crew of 3–5 people and basic tools, it's faster than you'd think.

Very. Solar extraction fans, rainwater-ready design, chimney ports for wood heaters, and A/C sleeve options. Perfect for remote or eco-focused sites.

Yes. Every dome is modular and fully demountable. Unbolt it, pack it up, and reassemble it elsewhere. Great for seasonal sites or testing locations.

Frame, outer cover, door, windows, blackout curtains, solar fan, and all hardware. Foundation and interior fit-out are separate (we can guide you or connect you with installers).

Very. Choose your size, colours (cover, insulation, curtains), door style (glass or wood-look), window configuration (mesh, porthole, skylight), and add-ons like insulation or chimney ports. We make it yours.
