Hulu Semen
Hulu Semenyih, located in Selangor, Malaysia, has become a popular family getaway in recent years. This time, I chose to stay at Monkeys Canopy Resort and visit Dino Desert, a perfect getaway for families! The highlight was being able to relax in the hotel's spacious room, explore the activity area during the day, and chase the kids around in the dinosaur park at night. Not only was the kids thrilled, but the adults were also able to relax and enjoy the experience.
Recommended Itinerary:
1️⃣ Monkeys Canopy Resort
Address: Persiaran Sungai Long
This resort is new and clean, surrounded by mountain views and expansive greenery, making it a natural haven. The spacious and comfortable rooms are designed for families, allowing you to recharge each night. The resort offers a wide range of activities, including an outdoor play area and off-road vehicle service (perfect for children who are too lazy to walk), and the park itself is very safe. While some amenities require an additional fee, the fun was excellent! Guests generally praised the cleanliness of the rooms, and the staff's service attitude varied, but generally they were helpful. While breakfast options are limited, they offer a wide variety of international cuisine. It's recommended that families explore the entire restaurant area first to see what's on offer, then decide together to satisfy both adults and children!
2️⃣ Dino Desert
Address: Lot 683, Jalan Persiaran Bukit Enggang Sungai Long Hill, Sungai Long, 43200 Cheras, Selangor, Malaysia
Recommended time to visit: From dusk to night, the dinosaur models create a magical atmosphere under the lights. Children will love the lifelike dinosaurs. The park boasts not only dinosaur displays but also interactive games and an outdoor activity area, making it a perfect place to play on sunny days. The photo opportunities are fantastic, and for unique family memories, this is a must-see! A word of caution: The park offers a variety of activities, so follow your children's interests and you'll always encounter surprising flowers and abundant trees. However, peak season can lead to crowds, so consider choosing off-peak times to avoid crowds.
Practical Tips Summary and Extensions:
- When choosing a hotel, it's best to inquire about room options and amenities in advance to ensure a smooth and comfortable stay.

- The hotel offers off-road vehicles, perfect for families to explore the park. If you don't want to go too far, consider paying for them.
- Dinosaur Park is highly recommended during the evening; the atmosphere is captivating and the excitement will soar for the kids!
