Glamping in Singapore runs from about S$100 for a teepee in your own living room to S$950 a night for a Mandai safari tent next to the zoo. The word covers two very different things: a pitched-and-decorated tent at East Coast Park you sleep in for one night, and an all-inclusive resort-style stay on Lazarus Island or in Mandai with meals and tours baked in. Most people overpay because they compare the headline rate without checking what is actually included, then get caught by ferry fees, BBQ pit charges, weekend surcharges, and air-con add-ons. This guide breaks down what each tier really costs in 2026, what is and isn't included, and where the value sits if you just want a one-night escape without a flight.
There is no single "glamping price" because the market splits into three tiers that share a name but almost nothing else. The cheapest tier is a tent that an operator pitches and decorates for you at a public park or in your home, and you supply your own food and entertainment. The middle tier is a beachfront tent at East Coast or Pasir Ris with fairy lights, air beds, and optional BBQ. The top tier is an all-inclusive island or wildlife stay where the rate covers transport, meals, and activities.
The numbers below are the published starting rates as of June 2026. Treat every figure as a weekday "from" price for the smallest occupancy. Weekend, eve-of-holiday, and peak-season rates run higher, and the headline number rarely includes food unless the listing says so. If you are weighing this against an overseas trip, run the all-in cost through a quick personal budget check before you book, because the cheap tiers add up fast once you bolt on extras.
| Type | Location | From (per night) | Pax | What's included |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| All-inclusive wildlife | Mandai (Glamping in the Wild / Colugo Camp) | S$550 | 2 | Zoo + Night Safari entry, dinner & breakfast, guided tours, parking |
| Island beachfront | Lazarus Island (Into The Woods) | from ~S$380 | 2-3 | Return ferry, breakfast, air-con tent |
| Beachfront tent | East Coast / Pasir Ris (various operators) | ~S$200-300 | 2 | Air bed, linen, fairy lights; BBQ & food extra |
| At-home / indoor teepee | Your home | ~S$100-200 | up to 4 | Teepee, mattress, decor; you supply food |
This is where the headline price is high but you spend almost nothing extra on the day, which makes it the easiest tier to budget for. Mandai's Glamping in the Wild (the experience formerly run as Colugo Camp at the Reservoir Retreat) is the closest thing Singapore has to a true resort glamping stay. The rate is per tent for a 2-day, 1-night stay and scales with headcount rather than per person.
Lazarus Island's Into The Woods is the beach alternative. You sail out on the Marina South Pier or Sentosa ferry, and the tent rate covers the return crossing plus breakfast, so the only real variable is what you eat and drink the rest of the day on an island with no shops. Because it sits off the main island, factor the ferry timing into your plans rather than the cost; the crossing is already in the price.
Most "glamping at East Coast Park" listings sit in the S$200-300 range per night for two, and this is the tier where the final bill drifts furthest from the headline. The tent rate usually buys you the pitch, an air bed, linen, and fairy lights. Food, BBQ pits, air-con units, and picnic spreads are almost always separate. A BBQ bundle can add around S$50, a picnic table add-on for a group runs about S$70, and an air-conditioned tent costs more than a fan-only one.
There is also a non-obvious cost: the camping permit. Pitching a tent overnight at most NParks-managed sites requires a free permit, and many operators handle this for you, but some park areas and dates are not bookable at all. Operators that run at private grounds such as Pasir Ris chalets or ORTO skip the permit issue entirely. Before you assume the cheap tier is cheapest, total the tent rate plus food plus any air-con and compare it against the all-inclusive number; the gap is often smaller than it looks. If a one-night local escape is really about resetting on a budget, the same money sometimes buys a fuller day out at a beach club or a Sentosa attractions day.
The cheapest way to "glamp" is to skip the location entirely. At-home and indoor operators bring teepees, mattresses, fairy lights, and themed decor to your living room, usually from around S$100-200 for a setup that sleeps up to four. There is no ferry, no permit, no weather risk, and no food markup because you cook or order in. For a kids' birthday sleepover this often beats a park tent on both cost and convenience.
If you own or can borrow gear, buying or renting your own equipment and pitching at a permitted park site is cheaper still, though at that point it is plain camping rather than glamping. The premium in glamping is the setup and the linen; the more of that you do yourself, the closer the cost falls to free. For families timing this around the holidays, pairing a home teepee night with free school-holiday activities is the lowest-cost version of the whole idea.
Glamping rates are volatile and demand-driven, so the savings come from timing and matching the tier to what you actually want out of the night. A few moves consistently lower the bill.
It ranges from about S$100-200 for an at-home or indoor teepee, around S$200-300 a night for a beachfront tent at East Coast or Pasir Ris, from roughly S$380 for a Lazarus Island couple tent, up to S$550-950 a night for an all-inclusive Mandai safari tent that bundles zoo entry, meals, and tours.
Not for the mid-tier park operators. The tent rate usually covers the pitch, air bed, linen, and lights, but food, BBQ pits, picnic spreads, and air-con units are charged separately. All-inclusive stays at Mandai and Lazarus Island are the exception, where transport and meals are already in the rate.
Overnight camping at most NParks-managed sites needs a free permit, which is usually arranged by the glamping operator rather than you. Some park areas and dates can't be booked at all, and operators on private grounds such as Pasir Ris chalets or ORTO avoid the permit requirement entirely.
Glamp at home. An indoor teepee setup for up to four people starts around S$100-200, with no ferry, no permit, no weather risk, and no operator food markup since you cook or order in. Booking park tents on weekdays and going as a group of three or four also lowers the per-person cost.
