De Star Glamping, Lenggeng — Fun for Families, Great for a Quick Escape

The Vibe

De Star Glamping is a resort-style glamping site tucked near Broga Hills in Lenggeng, Negeri Sembilan. You're not roughing it here — pre-pitched tents with queen beds, air-conditioning, and free Starlink WiFi. This is the kind of place you bring the whole family when someone (usually the wife or the in-laws) says they want to "try camping" but aren't about sleeping on the ground.

The surroundings are genuinely nice — green hills in the background, open grassy areas, a small swimming pool, and little animals for the kids to feed. There's a relaxed kampung resort feel to the whole place. String lights, bunting flags, a big projector screen at the parking area. It's not pretending to be hardcore camping. It knows what it is, and mostly delivers on that promise.

The crowd here is almost entirely families with young kids and couples looking for a low-effort weekend escape from KL. Very chill, very safe, very tame. If you're a seasoned camper looking for a challenge or some real jungle solitude, this isn't your spot. But if the goal is getting the kids excited about the outdoors without traumatising anyone, De Star does the job.

Getting There

De Star Glamping is in Lenggeng, Negeri Sembilan — just a short drive from Broga. From KL, you're looking at roughly 45 minutes to an hour via the LEKAS Highway or Semenyih route. Search "De Star Glamping" on Google Maps and it'll take you right there. The address is WWCH+MQ, 71750 Lenggeng, Negeri Sembilan — you can also call them at 011-2644 2822 to confirm the route if you're unsure.

The road in is straightforward — no 4WD needed, no dodgy jungle tracks. Normal cars are fine. There's covered parking on site too, so no worrying about your car baking in the sun all day.

What to Expect

The glamping tents are spacious and genuinely comfortable — two queen beds per tent, proper linens, bedside lamps, power sockets, and a portable air-conditioner. That last bit is a big deal in Malaysia. Sleeping in a tent without sweating through your clothes changes the whole glamping experience.

Outside each tent there's a covered area with a standing fan, string lights, and enough space to just sit and lepak. The whole resort is well-maintained and clean. During sunny afternoons it can get pretty hot out in the open, so plan to drive out for cold drinks or just chill inside the tent until evening.

Activities for kids include fishing, sand play, and feeding the animals — rabbits and a few others. It's not a full-blown activity camp, but there's enough to keep young children entertained without staring at screens. BBQ is available too, but you'll need to bring your own ingredients, charcoal, and fire starter.

This is a beginner and family-friendly site through and through. Don't expect wild adventure. Expect a comfortable, laid-back weekend where the kids sleep happy and you actually get to relax. If you're bringing a big group and need to haul loads of gear from the car, the TAHAN AllTerrain Foldable Wagon makes it way less painful — that thing hauls up to 100kg and the wheels handle uneven ground well.

Facilities

Toilets & Bathrooms

4 combined toilet-and-shower units on site. Each doubles as both shower and toilet, so on busy mornings you might queue a bit — arrive early or shower during quieter midday hours if you can.

Swimming Pool

Small but the kids love it. Tree-shaded setting keeps it naturally cool — just refresh regularly through the day for best water clarity.

Electricity

Power sockets inside each glamping tent. Guests are restricted from bringing in personal electrical items — management controls the power supply, likely to protect the solar setup. Stable enough for overnight use of the included A/C.

WiFi

Free Starlink WiFi available on site. Password displayed clearly. Actually works — impressive for a glamping site in Lenggeng.

Kitchen & Cooking

Kitchen sinks at fixed spots; on busy times you might wait a turn — plan your cooking windows. Bring your own sponge if you prefer. Dishwashing liquid is provided and refilled. One fridge and freezer for the site — perfect for a one-night stay. If staying two nights, pack lighter or use the optional breakfast package to ease the load.

Food Options

No mart on site. Optional self-cook steamboat and breakfast available at add-on prices — portions are generous and reasonably priced. For ice and extra supplies, drive out to a nearby town.

Parking

Covered parking area on site. Big projector screen here too — used for movie nights. Nice touch.

Blankets

Provided, but small. If you're sensitive to cold or bringing young kids, pack an extra blanket or a light sleeping bag just in case.

What Campers Are Saying

One family who stayed here raved about the tent setup — two queen beds, clean white linens, proper pillows, and an air-conditioner that actually kept the tent cool through the night. They called it a game changer for glamping in Malaysia. Hard to argue with that.

Another reviewer gave it four stars. She highlighted that with four combined toilet-shower units and shared fridge space, one night is the sweet spot — you'll have a good time and skip the storage squeeze that comes with longer stays.

A few families mentioned the kids absolutely loved it — fishing, feeding rabbits, playing in the sand. One mum said her daughter kept asking to go back. That says a lot. Several reviewers also appreciated how helpful and friendly the staff were throughout.

Hot afternoons — the open setting means strong sun midday. The tent A/C kicks in well for sleeping, but plan indoor activities or a cold drink run during peak heat. Evening and morning are the most comfortable times to be outside.

The optional steamboat and breakfast packages got good reviews — affordable, generous portions, and you don't have to worry about cooking everything yourself. Worth adding on if you don't want to deal with the limited kitchen setup.

TAHAN Tip

Book for one night only on your first visit — that's the sweet spot here. The fridge and freezer space fills up quickly with multiple groups, so one night means you can pack just enough food without the storage headache. Arrive by late afternoon, settle in, BBQ in the evening, let the kids run around and feed the animals, then check out after breakfast. Don't oversell it as a multi-night stay. And bring extra blankets for the kids — the ones provided are genuinely small.

If the blanket situation worries you, the TAHAN HexLink Sleeping Bag is rated for 18°C–25°C and converts into a blanket — works perfectly for Malaysia's glamping temperatures and doubles up as extra bedding without taking much space in your bag.
