A breathtaking Southeast Asian destination, Malaysia is a gorgeous country with stunning landscapes, rich culture, and delicious food. Its capital city, Kuala Lumpur, is a highly urbanized metropolis. It is home to the iconic Petronas Twin Towers and the skyrocketing telecommunication tower called KL Tower, which adorn the capital’s busy skyline. Apart from modern attractions, Malaysia offers natural wonders. You can dive into the turquoise waters of Langkawi Island, set on the Andaman Sea, go island-hopping at Tunku Abdul Rahman National Park, or indulge in scenic hikes at Taman Negara National Park. You cannot wrap up your visit without sampling the flavorful northern Malaysian dish Nasi Kandar. Are you thinking of ways to level up your holiday in Malaysia? Instead of hotels, you can book unique accommodation. To know more, browse through this list of the best glamping spots in Malaysia.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) host status, recent guest reviews, prices, availability of dates, decor, and a location that facilitates glamping or is close to glamping spots. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 13, 2024.
