03 | GLAMZ GENTING HIGHLANDS
Despite being located only half an hour from Genting Highlands, the domes might get warm and stuffy in the afternoons, but with the air conditioning, this is no longer a problem. It gets chillier at night so make sure you pack your jackets and warmer PJs! You get to enjoy the sauna, jacuzzi and kids will love the inflatable playground! The best part about glamping is that each tent comes with its own plumbing and toilet, so you don’t have to worry about showering in a public stall.
