Glamping is arguably the most popular combination of words in recent years, and the term comes from the words glamourous and camping, meaning that glampers can get close to nature without compromising on modern conveniences. It comes in a variety of accommodation styles, from luxury tents and conical tents to yurts and eco pods. But one particular style that has just started to make waves in Malaysia in recent years is the geodesic dome: a dome-shaped modern home, often with transparent sides that allow views of the surroundings and even the sky.
#1 Amoss Farmstay
The tranquil environment here allows you to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. There are vegetable gardens and tea gardens, plus hiking trails for you. You can choose to explore the mossy forest on foot or with a four-wheel drive.
#2 Glamz at Genting
Guests can enjoy a variety of on-site amenities, including an outdoor Jacuzzi, sauna, common room filled with board games, and a barbecue area. The dome here is spacious and minimalist in design, yet very comfortable.
#3 Sea Horizon Resort
Sea Horizon Resort has spectacular ocean views of the South China Sea. There are only two domed accommodation units, each with en-suite bathrooms and hot showers. Guests can take advantage of the resort’s proximity to the ocean by exploring the nearby fishing villages using the in-house canoe paddle or by bicycle.
#4 The Hooton Retreat
There are many activities such as campfires, stargazing, bushwalking and barbecues. Nearby attractions include Recreation Park and Waterfall.
#5 Umea Glam Kundasang
Four business partners have set up a luxury campground with four comfortable and spacious domes in the cold highlands of Kundasang. Each dome has a different theme and its own private kitchen and bathroom.
