Glamping booms—and loyalty points can now book it

book glamping – Glamping has kept growing since 2020, and now travelers can book several top U.S. stays with hotel loyalty points. From Under Canvas properties bookable with World of Hyatt points to AutoCamp’s Hilton Honors partnership, the comfort-and-outdoors promise is get
The switch for a lot of travelers isn’t from “camping” to “hotels.” It’s from roughing it to actually sleeping well—while still stepping outside to swimming, biking, boating, stargazing, and the rest of the outdoor day.
Glamping, or glamorous camping, is built for that exact trade-off. Most resorts spread guests across accommodations that are often tents, though some are stand-alone cabins or RVs. And the best places. across the U.S. pair gorgeous natural surroundings with outdoor-focused activities like fishing. hiking. stargazing. or biking.
There’s a catch, even in 2026: service levels aren’t identical from property to property. Some resorts offer a dedicated camping butler, while others run more shared-campground setups that can feel less private.
Still, the momentum is clear. Since 2020. glamping resorts have gained and retained their popularity across the U.S.—and a growing number can now be booked using hotel loyalty program points. Under Canvas properties can be booked with World of Hyatt points thanks to the partnership between Hyatt and Under Canvas. Hilton’s partnership with Autocamp also makes a points-based outdoors getaway possible. and Marriott’s Outdoor Collection is cited as another route for travelers looking to combine rewards with the great outdoors.
This is the kind of shift that changes who books glamping—and how. In a national-park setting or a pet-friendly retreat, the experience increasingly comes with the option to pay with points instead of cash.
