Weekend in Tiarasa Escapes

It was kakak's birthday weekend and at the last minute, she suggested that we all go to Tiarasa for the weekend. I was super excited to go glamping again!





We all joined them on Saturday noon but everyone else actually checked in on Friday. Loved the beautiful tents and their swimming pool was just perfect. Not too deep so we could watch the kids from the side. There is a small stream by the side of the campsite and it was great for kids too. They loved playing in the river and the pool!

Konti (Kakak's husband) organised a party/celebration during lunch. The package was inclusive of balloons, decorations, cake and food. Usually the party organised by Tiarasa would be done as tea and the food provided were kuih muih and goreng pisang etc. As ours was earlier, we ordered lunch from the Ala Carte menu.









Happy Birthday Kakak!
We had dinner at the restaurant and luckily we ordered early. They were understaffed, we had early dinner but the people who came after had to wait for tables which were limited. They pre-ordered too but none of it were made! But the food was yummy and reasonably priced.

Breakfast fruits

Nasi Lemak was so good!

Then we headed for the Bon Fire area. We waited ages for the fire to be lit (short staffed) and when they finally came with the marshmallows we were slightly disappointed to see the marshmallows were all sticky and they only brought one packet.

Later that night, they played a movie under the stars. Nazrin really wanted to eat popcorn, so after Aaman and Kimi fell asleep, I took him. They showed The Greatest Show and we watched it while waited for the popcorn. Nazrin fell asleep waiting and I really cannot carry him back to our tent, so as soon as he had some popcorn, we went back.

As much as I loved the room, for some reason I couldn't fall asleep. Maybe because our tent was on the hill and slightly far away from everyone else. I just couldn't sleep. No ghosts or anything but I just feel "tak tenang". So I think this is the last time for glamping for me. Give me a hotel next time please!

Overall we all had a wonderful time and Kakak loved her party there. The kids had so much fun at the pool and the river. The food was great but we could see they were so under staffed. The same guy was at the restaurant, lighting the bon fire, setting up the outdoor cinema and making the popcorn. Poor guy! So they definitely need to address that but otherwise it was great. However, I don't think I'll be glamping for a while. I just can't sleep!!
