The YALA Stardust 40 Hotel Suite is a permanent two-guest canvas lodge engineered for luxury resorts and boutique destinations where every detail of the guest experience must meet hotel-grade standards — outdoors.
At 431 sq ft of interior space plus a veranda equal in scale to the lodge itself, the Stardust 40 Hotel Suite is designed for two guests with a private ensuite bathroom and an optional kitchen configuration that allows operators to tailor the experience from fully self-contained to pure retreat. The signature double-roof construction enhances ventilation in warm climates and defines the structure's striking architectural profile. The front façade opens completely, connecting the interior to the surrounding landscape without transition.
A 4-inch structural timber framework and high-wind reinforced roof system support long-term outdoor installation across demanding climates. Resort-grade detailing, timber floors, and composed spatial flow deliver the quiet elegance that discerning guests expect — and return for.
Starting at $34,199 for the base structure. Bespoke interior styling 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.
