The YALA Comet 20 is a permanent luxury canvas glamping lodge for resorts and boutique outdoor destinations seeking a signature, architecturally refined accommodation that fits standard campground plots without compromising on guest experience.
The Comet 20 stands as YALA's signature expression of contemporary canvas architecture — a composed, resort-ready lodge that transforms ordinary campground plots into elevated outdoor residences. Flexible interior configurations allow hospitality operators to tailor the space to their needs, with either a two-bedroom layout or a one-bedroom suite paired with a private bathroom and fully appointed kitchen, all unfolding within a carefully calibrated footprint that respects the natural rhythm of the landscape.
Light moves through tall vertical windows, the veranda frames open horizons, and the interior becomes a stage for mornings wrapped in linen, afternoons drifting between shade and breeze, and evenings shaped by conversation and glowing lanterns. Designed as the evolution of a classic safari-inspired lodge, the Comet 20 introduces improved airflow, refined detailing, and fire-retardant construction that balances safety with quiet sophistication.
Restrained rather than showy, purposeful rather than temporary, it is a shelter built for destinations where longevity, guest experience, and architectural clarity define true outdoor luxury.
Starting at $18,049 for the base structure. Bespoke interiors and configuration support through The Luxe Outpost are available upon inquiry.

Care & Use
YALA safari tents are engineered for long-term outdoor durability. To ensure the safety of the structure and maintain your 24-month warranty coverage, please follow these professional maintenance guidelines.
Structural Integrity & Tensioning
• Check Tension Regularly: The stability of a safari tent depends on correct tensioning of the roof and wall canvases. Check these monthly, especially after heavy wind or rain, to prevent water pooling or fabric flapping.
• Frame & Hardware: Periodically ensure all ratchets are locked and that the wooden frame is stable. While natural aging of wood is expected, structural integrity must be monitored.
Moisture & Ventilation
• Prevent Mildew: Moisture is the primary enemy of high-quality canvas. Ensure the tent has adequate ventilation at all times to prevent condensation and mold growth, which are not covered by warranty.
• Winterizing: If the tent is not in use during winter, ensure it is cleaned and bone-dry before closing any protective layers to avoid trapping moisture.
Cleaning & Fabric Care
• PVC Roof Cleaning: The outer PVC roof can be cleaned with lukewarm water and a soft brush. For stubborn dirt, use only specialized PVC cleaners; never use high-pressure washers.
• Canvas Walls: Regularly brush off dry dirt from the inner tent canvas. Avoid chemical detergents as they can compromise fire-retardant and waterproof treatments.
• Removal of Debris: Keep the roof free of fallen leaves, branches, or bird droppings to prevent permanent staining or degradation of the material.
Zippers & Hardware
• Smooth Operation: Clean zippers with a soft brush to remove dust or sand. Apply a dry silicone spray periodically to ensure they glide easily without using excessive force.
• Branding: Do not remove or alter YALA branding, as this is a specific condition of your warranty.
Safe Operation
• Wind & Weather: In the event of extreme weather warnings, additional precautions may be required to secure the structure.
• No Modifications: Any unauthorized adjustments or modifications to the tent structure will void the warranty.
