6/10 Good

Spectacular scenery, but issues with deliveey
The very first thing to note is that a 4x4 high-clearance vehicle is absolutely required to get to the place. The road, especially the last mile or so was rough, including crossing a shallow fast-flowing river. The host was good about communicating the best route (dont use Google).
But when you do get there, the view, high up in the mountains above the treetops, is just specular and awe inspiring! Very secluded, except for the other domed unit which is visible in the meadow below, but not close by.
The domed itself is nicely appointed with a decent kitchenette, plates, cutlery and hot plate, and a cool outdoor trampoline. But the domed structure does not appear to be air-tight, and the interior had dozens of insects and mosquitoes when we came indoors after trying the jacuzzi. The door to the dome didnt latch properly, which probably did not help the insect situation.
The hot tub is basically non functional. We were surprised to see such a large tub (4 person), which took a long time to fill. The water was luke warm, which was not fun. Looking at the eco-friendly solar thermal hot water system, its obvious that it cannot provide anywhere near enough hot water for such a large tub.
