General information
Sleeping under the stars, in the heart of the forest
Immerse yourself in a world where silence, stars, and biodiversity come together. In the ecological bubble of Domaine EcÔtelia you literally sleep in nature—without disturbing it. Thanks to the transparent roof and walls, you are surrounded by ancient trees, singing birds, and the gentle rustling of leaves. During the day, you can observe life in the forest; in the evening, you look up at the stars from your bed.
The bubble stands on a wooden frame and comfortably accommodates four people. It has a single bed (90x200) with a pull-out bed and a double bed (160x200). There is no kitchen. Outside, a private terrace with garden furniture awaits you, and your private bathroom facilities are nearby. For those who want to avoid early light, the roof can be covered at night.
Inspired by the Chinese nature reserve Fandjingshan, this bubble is a tribute to biosphere reserves worldwide: places where nature conservation and sustainable living go hand in hand. Here, you are not just a guest in the forest—you become part of it.

Our experience at Domaine EcÔtelia was particularly disappointing. We had booked one night in a yurt, but as soon as we arrived, a strong smell of damp and mold made the accommodations nearly unbearable. The only explanation we were given was that this smell was normal due to yak hair.
Contrary to what might be implied, we were not offered … any alternative accommodations on site, even if we had been willing to pay extra. We were presented with absolutely no alternatives. We therefore had to leave without spending the night there, after having made the entire trip.
Another cause for concern: the presence of a portable gas heater inside the yurt. We have concerns about the ventilation conditions, the risks associated with carbon monoxide, and the fire safety precautions taken.
But our surprise doesn’t end there. We discovered that Laurent Roy, EcÔtelia’s chief operating officer, posted a particularly glowing five-star review of his own establishment, describing his stay in a yurt. The resort’s official account then publicly thanked him as if he were an independent guest, without specifying his professional connection to the establishment.
We’ve attached screenshots of this post, EcÔtelia’s official response, and his LinkedIn profile—which explicitly mentions his role as COO—to this review.
This staging of a customer review by a manager of the establishment raises serious questions about transparency and credibility. And when we compare his account to our actual experience—particularly regarding the complete lack of any offer of alternative accommodations—the discrepancy is troubling, to say the least.
Given the discrepancy between our on-site experience and these practices, trust has been broken. We absolutely do not recommend this establishment.this is a translation, click here for the original
Notre expérience au Domaine EcÔtelia a été particulièrement décevante. Nous avions réservé une nuit en yourte, mais dès notre arrivée, une forte odeur d'humidité et de moisissure rendait l'hébergement difficilement supportable. Pour seule explication, on nous a indiqué que cette odeur était normale en raison des poils de yak.
Contrairement à ce qui pourrait être laissé entendre, aucune solution de relogement ne nous a été proposée sur place, même en envisageant un supplément de notre part. Absolument aucune alternative ne nous a été présentée. Nous avons donc dû repartir sans passer la nuit sur place, après avoir effectué tout ce déplacement.
Autre point préoccupant : la présence d'un chauffage mobile au gaz à l'intérieur de la yourte. Nous nous interrogeons sur les conditions de ventilation, les risques liés au monoxyde de carbone et les précautions prises en matière de sécurité incendie.
Mais notre étonnement ne s'arrête pas là. Nous découvrons que Laurent Roy, directeur opérationnel d'EcÔtelia, publie lui-même un avis cinq étoiles particulièrement élogieux sur son propre établissement, racontant son séjour dans une yourte. Le compte officiel du domaine vient ensuite le remercier publiquement comme s'il s'agissait d'un client indépendant, sans préciser son lien professionnel avec l'établissement.
Nous joignons à cet avis les captures de cette publication, de la réponse officielle d'EcÔtelia ainsi que de son profil LinkedIn, qui mentionne explicitement sa fonction de directeur opérationnel.
Cette mise en scène d'un avis client par un responsable de l'établissement pose une sérieuse question de transparence et de crédibilité. Et lorsqu'on compare son récit à notre expérience réelle, notamment concernant l'absence totale de proposition de relogement, le décalage est pour le moins troublant.
Entre notre expérience sur place et ces pratiques, la confiance est rompue. Nous ne recommandons absolument pas cet établissement. -

We had booked a one-night stay at Domaine EcÔtelia, near Langon, in a yurt, through a gift box. Unfortunately, our experience was very disappointing, and we were unable to enjoy the stay we had planned.
As soon as we entered the yurt, we noticed a strong smell of dampness and mold, which we found particularly concerning. In our opinion, … this was not simply an odor associated with the building materials. Since we were traveling with our child, we did not feel safe enough to spend the night there.
We immediately reported the problem to the front desk. The owner explained that this odor was normal in a yurt, due to the yak-hair insulation. However, this explanation did not convince us and did not address our concerns about the condition of the accommodation.
The most disappointing part was the lack of an alternative solution. Despite our complaint and the fact that we couldn’t stay in the yurt under those conditions, we were not offered any alternative accommodations on the property, no compensation, and no concrete solution. We therefore had to leave without being able to enjoy the night we had booked.
Added to this were the additional €20 we paid upon arrival for our child, as well as the travel, fuel, and toll costs incurred for this stay, which ultimately proved unusable.
We were also concerned about the presence of a gas heater in this accommodation intended to house guests overnight. Without claiming to be able to make a technical judgment on the installation’s compliance, we believe it is legitimate to question the ventilation conditions and the precautions taken to prevent risks related to carbon monoxide and fire safety. These issues concerned us all the more since we were traveling with a child.
We do not claim to be making a technical assessment of the accommodation, but a strong smell of dampness and mold, combined with the lack of a concrete response when a guest reports a problem, constitutes an unacceptable experience for us.
We believe it is reasonable to request a full refund for our stay, since we were unable to use the accommodation we had booked and no alternative was offered to us on site.
The concept of the estate and the setting may be appealing, but they are not enough to make up for such a disappointing experience. We expected welcoming, reassuring accommodations and a minimum of consideration in response to a problem we reported immediately.
As things stand, we do not recommend this experience, particularly to families with children. We hope our feedback will be taken into account and that appropriate measures will be taken to ensure other guests do not encounter the same situation.this is a translation, click here for the original
Nous avions réservé une nuit au Domaine EcÔtelia, près de Langon, dans une yourte, par l'intermédiaire d'une box. Malheureusement, notre expérience a été très décevante et nous n'avons pas pu profiter du séjour prévu.
Dès notre entrée dans la yourte, nous avons constaté une forte odeur d'humidité et de moisissure, qui nous a paru particulièrement préoccupante. Il ne s'agissait pas, selon nous, d'une simple odeur liée aux matériaux de construction. Accompagnés de notre enfant, nous ne nous sommes pas sentis suffisamment rassurés pour y passer la nuit.
Nous avons immédiatement signalé le problème à l'accueil. Le propriétaire nous a expliqué que cette odeur était normale dans une yourte, en raison de l'isolation composée de poils de yak. Cette explication ne nous a toutefois pas convaincus et n'a pas répondu à notre inquiétude quant à l'état de l'hébergement.
Le plus décevant a été l'absence de solution alternative. Malgré notre signalement et notre impossibilité de rester dans la yourte dans ces conditions, aucune proposition de relogement dans un autre hébergement du domaine, aucun geste commercial ni aucune solution concrète ne nous ont été proposés. Nous avons donc dû repartir sans pouvoir profiter de la nuit réservée.
À cela s'ajoutent les 20 € supplémentaires réglés à notre arrivée pour notre enfant, ainsi que les frais de déplacement, de carburant et d'autoroute engagés pour ce séjour finalement inutilisable.
Nous avons également été préoccupés par la présence d'un chauffage au gaz dans cet hébergement destiné à accueillir des personnes pour la nuit. Sans prétendre pouvoir juger techniquement de la conformité de l'installation, nous estimons légitime de nous interroger sur les conditions de ventilation et les précautions prises pour prévenir les risques liés au monoxyde de carbone et à la sécurité incendie. Ces questions nous ont d'autant plus préoccupés que nous étions avec un enfant.
Nous ne prétendons pas établir un diagnostic technique sur l'hébergement, mais une forte odeur d'humidité et de moisissure, associée à l'absence de réponse concrète lorsqu'un client signale un problème, constitue pour nous une expérience inacceptable.
Nous estimons légitime de demander le remboursement intégral de notre séjour, puisque nous n'avons pas pu utiliser l'hébergement réservé et qu'aucune alternative ne nous a été proposée sur place.
Le concept du domaine et le cadre peuvent être séduisants, mais ils ne suffisent pas à compenser une expérience aussi décevante. Nous attendions un hébergement accueillant, rassurant et un minimum de considération face à un problème signalé immédiatement.
En l'état, nous ne recommandons pas cette expérience, particulièrement aux familles avec enfants. Nous espérons que notre retour sera pris en compte et que des vérifications seront effectuées afin que d'autres clients ne rencontrent pas la même situation. -

A timeless experience in a very, very unique type of lodging: the Mongolian yurt.
After a very warm welcome, we explored the yurt. Once inside, we felt as if we were in the middle of the steppe, surrounded by wild animals... What a night! Then came breakfast—hearty and so local, featuring truly delicious ingredients.
We’ll be back to explore another unique lodging experience from around the world.this is a translation, click here for the original
Un moment hors du temps dans un hébergement très très atypique : la yourte Mongole.
Après un accueil très chaleureux, nous découvrons la yourte. Une fois a l'intérieur on s'imagine au milieu d'une stepe avec les animaux sauvages autour ... Quelle nuit ! Puis le petit déjeuner, copieux et tellement local avec de très bon produits.
Nous reviendrons pour découvrir un autre hébergement du monde.
