Riverside Glamping at Dusun Bonda, Batang Kali Selangor

There is no other way to enjoy being close to nature without compromising comfort and Luxury than Glamping at Dusun Bonda. Tucked away in the fruit orchard of Batang Kali, is the private Glamping site called Dusun Bonda, literally means Orchard (Dusun) and Mother (Bonda). The resort’s owner Puan Azura made this humble concept for her daughter to build beautiful memories of her childhood. Now, the resort is home to anyone who would love a lovely escape to nature and create lovely moments.

Glam 5B Riverside Premium Bell Tent

We stayed in a cosy Glam 5B Riverside with Private Garden and Bathroom for 2D1N. The tent is huge with a generous 3 queen-sized beds, A portable air Conditioner, electric mosquito repellent, tower rack stand, 2 Tower Fans. Although its just the two of us, the tent’s capacity is good for 6 Adults or 7 pax with kids below 12 years old. What I loved the most is that the tent is facing the river and the location looks very secluded from the rest of the tents.

BBQ Dinner at the GLAM

We were in luck for the BBQ Dinner, they host it for us! Chicken BBQ, Sausages, Grilled Fish, and Veggies. It was a very satisfying dinner at the Riverside Tamu Hall. I’ve been eating like junk for the couple of weeks, indulging into fish is such a pleasure! It’s so astounding to be able to experience someone doing the BBQ for us. I normally do my own BBQ especially in my hometown, Bacolod City which is famous for Chicken Inasal (Chicken BBQ). The good thing is you can make your own BBQ on your own if you’re in the mood for cooking! There’s also a Hillside BBQ Patio where you can do some grilling. It’s the best way to enjoy food with the Fam bam!

Breakfast at Riverside

Breakfast is available at the Riverside Tamu Hall, however since we have our own little garden by the river, we grabbed our glam breakfast back to our place. The funny thing is our breakfast was gone, I mean someone took it and the staff said we can take the one’s left. Instead of Riverside 5B Glam, it became Studio A Villa. We had Nasi Lemak, Curry puffs, some fruits and Coffee to kick start our day. I like how you can have our breakfast at the public area Tamu Hall and as well as the exclusivity from the private garden.

Other Activities at the Glam

A Morning Jungle Trekking to a Waterfall which is just a walking distance from the glam is one of the things to do. A guide is available for RM100 return trip for a maximum of RM 25 pax. Just make sure you wear proper trekking gear and you’re good to go! Natural Hot Spring is just 3 minutes away by car and about 10-15 minutes by walk. You’ll have two options here, one is Kolam Air Panas Hulu Tamu and the other one is Kolam Air Panas Cholo-Cholo with an entrance of RM5.00 respectively. If you’re into fishing, Freshwater Fishing Pond D’Kali is just about 4.2km from Dusun Bonda. If you’re opt for shopping tho, Genting Premium Outlet is only 30 minutes away. I also found a delicious Nasi Kukus Tanjung Ayam Goreng Berempa in town called the Nasi Kukus – the famous in Batang Kali and I was blown away, I even take away back to KL!

Our stay in Dusun Bonda was memorable. Its one of those getaways to unwind from the hustle and bustle of the city. It’s great to be away from the crowd occasionally.
