Sekeping Tenggiri

Sekeping Tenggiri is a glasshouse homestay on a hillside in Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur, with greenery visible from its rooms and a private pool. Its open, rustic design pairs exposed timber and wood panelling with views towards the forest. The property has seven rooms, each with space for up to three guests, and shared home comforts include a kitchen and washing machine. It suits a quieter stay close to restaurants, though limited hillside parking and the open-concept bathrooms are worth factoring into your plans.

A glasshouse in Bangsar

Sekeping Tenggiri is a hillside homestay in Bangsar, designed around an open, glasshouse feel. Its setting brings greenery into view from the rooms, with the sounds of nature adding to the sense of retreat. The property is close to restaurants, so you can stay among trees without being far from places to eat.

The architecture has a deliberately unfinished look: a visible roof structure and few solid walls give parts of the building an exposed, open character. Timber beams and rough wood panelling add warmth to the kitchen and shared spaces.

Rooms and shared facilities

The property has seven rooms, each with accommodation for up to three guests. A private pool and a balcony facing the forest are among its outdoor features. Kitchenware and a washing machine make the stay practical for guests who want to prepare food or do laundry.

The open layout is part of the property's character, but the bathrooms are also open-concept. If privacy is important to your group, take that into account when choosing who to share a room with. The leafy setting can bring insects, so pack repellent. Parking is limited on the hillside, and the shower's solar-powered heating can affect water temperature late at night.
