Most tents advertise how many people they will sleep, but this generally is a gross underestimate. It would be wise to buy a tent larger than the stated person-size, unless you are hiking into your campsite and need to economize on space.
Your tent needs to be easy to put up and take down. Lets face it; this may be the most important factor of all. Starting or ending your camping trip with the frustration of putting up and taking down a tent is a major drag. This is supposed to be vacation after all.

Tents come with the option of extra rooms, sunshades, and many windows. These are all nice options but you really don’t need to pay a lot of money for a fancy tent. Your tent should be guaranteed waterproof though!!  Make sure on this point.

Tents will all come with a rain tarp to put over your tent, plenty of pegs.  You will likely spend less time in your tent than you imagine. You may prefer to be able to stand up in your tent as well.   Just make sure your tent is durable and a good size for your needs.
