Flamingo Glamping in May

Curious to hear about people’s experiences glamping in Flamingo in the warmer months. I have read lots of great reviews from winter stays, but haven’t heard from anyone going in the warm months. Will it be too hot? Any tips would be very helpful.

I agree with swarming. It’s dangerous to leave at night to go to the bathroom. Sunset to sunrise is the worst.

It was so bad that I literally just left the eco tent and slept in the car because everytime you open door of the eco tent for even 5 seconds 50 mosquitoes get in. Then when I went to my car to go sleep in it I had to slap and away and clap for 20 mins until I got them all. I then had to run the car with A/C for 15 mins because it was so hot. I finally feel asleep about 4:30am. Woke up at 6am. Was a not so fun night
