Cabana Retreat a.k.a Glamping @ Kota Belud

Finding a place just for a weekend getaway in KK? 

If you have a car, you can opt to go to Kota Belud for glamping. By the way, glamping is just a word for glamorous camping! Just about one and a half hour drive from KK, there is this place called Cabana Retreat. Price is slightly expensive, perhaps about RM 250++ per camp but various facilities provided including toilet, cafe, hall, mini swimming pool etc. You can bring your own food there and cook if you want or you can request for food provided with a minimal cost. 

One nice thing about this place is that it's by the beach! You can enjoy the beautiful view of sunset in the evening and even sunrise if you can wake up early.  

The front of the resort. Very limited parking space but it's just enough for all their guests. 

The tents along the walk way to the beach. 

Basic furniture provided including table, stools, cupboard, hangers etc. Besides, there's a cooler there in each unit, so no worries about the hot weather. 

The exterior of the camp with a simple BBQ pit if needed. 

Watching sunset together can be a very romantic thing! =) 

Fuga Bar selling various stuff e.g. drinks and ice-cream. 

Night view of the whole camp site from the observatory tower

The Camps by the beach, the beach is just meters away... 

Simple breakfast provided.

One last view of the place before leaving!

Overall, it is not a bad place to visit for the weekend. You can opt to stay or just walk-in to view but with a minimal price. I can say that this place is something more modern and very different from the traditional camping. So, give it a try if you have not. I'm sure your partner will love this place sooooo much.

Enjoy and have a nice day! =)
