Glamourous camping adventure awaits
LOVE the idea of camping but not really a fan of roughing it out in the jungle?
Or are you looking for a quick romantic escape to Nature far away from technology?
Then look no further than Penang’s upcoming new attraction — a “glamping” resort.
Glamping, or “glamorous camping”, is the first of its kind concept to be introduced in the country.
Taking its name from the surroundings, the resort to be called Boulder Valley Glamping Resort by Amazing Discovery, is set to be built on a 8.9ha valley in Teluk Bahang.
The eco-resort would be designed to maintain the environmental characteristics of the site, including the biological and geological settings of the place.
The structure of the resort would be built on stilts to minimise disturbances to the natural habitat, vegetation, waterways and ground.
The project by Treasure Orchard Bhd is expected to be completed within two years and cost about RM7 million.
Project executive director Lee Woon Poo said the project would be undertaken with an environment-sensitive design approach, combining unique experiences for guests.
“Our main objective is to create an authentic eco-resort that maintains the environmental characteristics of the site, including the biological and geological factors of the place.
“Guests can enjoy unique experiences and basic amenities, a 1km buggy truck, tree-top restaurants, 100m long suspended bridge, bird-watching decks and tailored services,” she said.
The resort will be built among the natural setting of the valley with minimal impact on the flora and fauna.
