IKAN Glampsite
01 Quick Facts
02 🌲 The Vibe
IKAN Glampsite is a private glamping resort tucked into the forested foothills of Bukit Tinggi, Bentong — the brand describes it as a 'luxury glamping escape' in the serene rainforest foothills of Pahang, about 50 minutes from KL. The recurring camper verdict is remarkably consistent: peaceful, clean, comfortable, and surrounded by nature.
The site runs in two phases, with eco-luxury tents (several with en-suite bathrooms) spread across landscaped hillside lawns and wooden decks under the trees. Reviewers love the sunset views, the fresh morning air, and how quiet the night gets — one guest called waking up to the scenery the highlight of the trip.
This is a slow-down site, not an adventure park: there's a pickleball court, outdoor movie and campfire, but the honest consensus is that IKAN suits people who want to rest, recharge and escape the city. If you need non-stop activities, look elsewhere — if you want a comfortable tent in the hills with food handled, this fits.
03 🚗 Getting There
IKAN Glampsite sits at Lot 27826, Jalan Lama, off the Lebuhraya Karak (Karak Expressway) at Bukit Tinggi, 28750 Bentong, Pahang (plus code 6PM39R4R+9P). From KL it's roughly 40-50 minutes via the Karak Expressway — take the Bukit Tinggi / Genting area exit and follow Jalan Lama; the site's own website quotes about 50 minutes from the heart of KL. Straight-line distance from KL city centre is about 28 km, and it's only ~9 km from Genting Highlands. Parking is on site, and the tents sit a short walk from the entrance on the hillside.
The site is close to Genting Highlands (about 9 km) if you want to combine a glamping night with a day trip up the hill. Directions are straightforward from the Karak Expressway; reviewers consistently mention the WhatsApp instructions from the team being clear and helpful before arrival.
04 🛏️ Staying at IKAN
IKAN's tents are the whole point — pre-set eco-luxury glamping units, no pitching required, so you can leave the tent at home and just bring your clothes. The property is split into Phase 1 and Phase 2 areas; reviewers who stayed in the newer Phase 2 call the tents clean, comfortable and well-maintained, with everything needed for a relaxing stay. Several units include an en-suite bathroom — one guest called it the highlight, since there's no late-night walk to a shared facility. Beds are genuinely comfortable (repeated praise), and the whole site has a cozy, welcoming atmosphere.
- Eco-luxury tents (Phase 1 & 2) - Pre-set glamping tents with comfortable beds, fans and lighting — clean and well-maintained per reviewers, with the newer Phase 2 area drawing particular praise.
- En-suite bathrooms (select tents) - Some units include a private en-suite — no shared-bathroom runs at night. The rest of the site's facilities are described as clean and thoughtfully prepared.
- Meals & café on site - Breakfast (nasi lemak & pau) and dinner (BBQ or steamboat) are served, and there's an on-site café reviewers call a nice place to relax. Snacks are available to buy at night.
05 🛠 Facilities
⛺ Tents & comfort— pre-set glamping tents with proper beds, individual fans and lights; clean and well-kept. Phase 2 units get consistent praise for being spacious and cozy.
🚿 Bathrooms— en-suite bathrooms in select tents, called 'luxurious and hassle-free' by one reviewer; shared facilities elsewhere are described as clean and well maintained.
🏓 Activities & evenings— pickleball court, outdoor movie, and campfire are the highlights guests rave about; sunset viewing from the site is stunning. Keep expectations measured: it's a low-key, rest-focused site.
🍽 Food & café— dinner is BBQ or steamboat (no rice options, per one reviewer), breakfast is nasi lemak and pau; the on-site café is a favourite hangout and snacks are sold for late-night cravings — though reviewers suggest bringing your own snacks, and a cooler box keeps drinks cold on the deck.
06 💬 What Campers Are Saying
"The environment was peaceful, surrounded by nature, and perfect for anyone looking to take a break from the busy city life. The tent was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained... Waking up to the fresh air and beautiful scenery was the highlight of the trip."
"The room was really nice, way more spacious and cozy than I expected. The absolute highlight was the en-suite bathroom — it made the whole experience feel luxurious and hassle-free. The sunset view is stunning too, and they even have a pickleball court!"
"A pleasant stay. The environment was peaceful and comfortable, and the food portion for two was just nice. The café on-site is a nice touch... it's best suited for those who simply want to rest, slow down, and enjoy a quiet getaway."
"The campsite was clean, peaceful, and surrounded by beautiful nature. The tents were comfortable, facilities well maintained, staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast and dinner were delicious — perfect for a weekend getaway."
"Five families together spent over RM9,000 — we were not small customers, yet service still felt below the price. Campfire came without the complimentary marshmallows other glampsites offer."
"Booked the Haven and got a free upgrade to the Ridge — amenities are complete, cleanliness 10/10, and my pets had a great time. Phase 2 is pure luxury."
"Very quiet at night, no mosquitoes inside the tent, dinner and breakfast provided, and there's a pickleball court and cafe on site."
Google's rating spread (4.5★ / 442 reviews, checked 22 Aug 2026) is strongly positive and remarkably theme-consistent. The repeated highs are peaceful natural surroundings, clean comfortable tents, generous food portions, friendly staff, the sunset view and the pickleball court. The honest caveats: it's a quiet, rest-focused site with limited activities (best for slowing down, not action), dinner has no rice options and breakfast variety is basic, a few older reviews mention mouldy tents that recent guests say have since improved, and noisy groups have spoiled the peace for some — though the site enforces quiet hours after midnight and has penalised offenders with their deposit.

08 🏕️ The Camp Tip
- Hill mornings are damp. IKAN sits in the forested foothills — mornings are misty and towels linger damp. a Wellhike thermos keeps coffee hot through a slow misty morning on the deck.
- Nights get brisk. Reviewers mention cool nights across the two phases — tents stay comfortable but air gets brisk. a Wellhike sleeping bag adds warmth without hauling heavy blankets up the hill.
- Bring your own pillow. Pillows in provided tents are basic — reviewers who slept well usually brought their own. a Wellhike camping pillow packs flat and makes the difference between a so-so and a great night.
- Coffee people, take note. Coffee culture is part of the stay — the cafe serves morning brews, but reviewers pack their own for the deck. a Cliton kettle turns the deck into your own pour-over corner before breakfast.
