Imagine you are in a mini forest with jungle pools, beautiful glamping tents surrounded by green lush, and an inviting vibe especially to those who enjoy a camping environment yet prefer comfort and privacy. Oh yeah, and you don’t need to worry about food unlike traditional camping where everything must be prepared from beginning till the end. So, what do you think? Best-kan? Do you think it’s something you’d like to explore?

 

Well, if you need to disconnect from the city’s hectic lifestyles and reconnect with your favourite people, your family – I reckon this is the place to be, Le Quadri Hotel’s Camp & Glamp (Colina)!

 

Recently, I had the opportunity to experience it first-hand with my family for 2 days and 1 night. It was a much-needed relaxation for the entire family as the children were busy with their school learning while we were occupied with our usual routine. 

 

In fact, we really thought of a road trip but then, with the never-ending traffic congestion during the school holidays, we put out the idea of it. Nevertheless, to this getaway, we all said yes as there are many reasons to choose this place and I will reveal why.

 

 

 

1. Ideal Location

 

The Le Quadri Hotel’s Camp & Glamp is in Cheras, Kuala Lumpur adjacent to the UCSI University campus. The glamping site is at the hilltop enclosed by a beautiful mini jungle. As you enter, it gives you the kampung feel (a laidback kind of environment), a relaxed atmosphere – simply ideal for a quick escape from the city. 

So, if you are ready for a different kind of getaway, one that envelops you in the natural beauty, you’re in the right place!

2. Camping or Glamping

 

There are two options for you; you can choose either a normal camping tent or a glamping tent. If you choose a camping tent, you need to bring your own sleeping bag and camp like you normally would.

 

 

On the other hand, glamping is a bit more luxurious, as it comes with fans, air conditioning and a queen/king size bed and a sofa bed. The tent is spacious too. Not to mention, all your meals are taken care of from breakfast to dinner. However, you also have the option to exclude it, choice is yours. You’re allowed to bring your own food and do your own barbeque too.

 

 

As for us, we chose the glamping tent without the discomforts usually associated with traditional camping.

 

 

3. Slow Day – Play Time

 

Oh yes, time seems to slow down here because you’ve got plenty of time to enjoy the laidback moment and create memories with your children. There isn’t a television, no video games, or cartoons for your children (unless you bring your own electronics) which is good, because that’s the reason you are here – to reconnect.

 

 

 

 

 

 

It’s a time for you to fill in with new experiences to counteract the usual day-to-day routine. We had a good time playing futsal with our children on the artificial grass field available, and simply chilling in the lepak area.

 

 

4. Cascading Pool & Sauna

 

 

 

There are cascading pools and a jungle sauna too. We enjoyed ourselves soaking in the pool nestled in the middle of nature. It was a beautiful sight and a lovely experience for all of us.  

 

 

 

 

There’s also a sauna – did you know that it has many health benefits? Sauna bathing is beneficial for detoxification, increasing metabolism, increasing blood circulation, skin rejuvenation, improved sleep, stress management, relaxation and more.

 

My husband and I had a brief moment in the sauna as nothing is more reinvigorating than a deep, healthy sweat. A great way to recharge our exhausted body and mind.

 

 

 

5. BBQ Night

 

 

 

What is camping without barbeque night, right? We took the barbeque food packages inclusive of drinks to indulge in for the rest of the evening. Daddy took the lead to do the grilling while mummy helped with the prep and the children helped themselves eating, lol! Ahh, memang best-lah!

 

 

We had a fun-tastic time grilling and eating a variety of food after a long day at the pool and some fun play with kids. If this is not a fun time, then what is right? 

 

 

Overall, it was truly a memorable and unique outdoor staycation for us. Every moment spent together with the family is priceless and worth remembering. Don’t you agree? We will definitely come back.
