Strawberry Park Resort is the mid-mountain hotel and leisure resort sitting at around 1,300 metres on the Genting Highlands road — between the Awana SkyWay base at the foothills and the Resorts World Genting (RWG) summit at 1,800m. It’s named after the on-site strawberry farm, with a small cluster of family-anchored attractions tacked on: lavender garden, mushroom-farm tour, animal petting park, maze garden, mini golf. Cooler than KL, warmer than the casino-anchored summit, with hotel rates a meaningful step below the RWG complex. For SG families with young kids who want outdoor and nature time without basing inside a casino-and-mall environment, Strawberry Park is the obvious mid-mountain pick.

TL;DR — Strawberry Park Resort in 4 lines
Mid-mountain (~1,300m) 4-star, 281 rooms, SGD ~$80-180/night vs SGD $150-400+ at summit hotels. On-site strawberry farm, lavender garden, mushroom tour, animal park, maze + mini golf.
Best for families with kids 3-12 wanting outdoor / nature vs casino-anchored summit. Free shuttle every 30 min to Awana SkyWay base + GPO; ~5 km / 10 min down from Genting summit.
Distinct from summit Genting hotels (First World, Genting Grand) — Strawberry Park is the lower-elevation outdoor-anchored alternative.
Genting is ~390 km / ~5.5–6 hrs from SG via Tuas Second Link + NSE. We chauffeur from SGD ~390 (Standard MPV) one-way, ~SGD 50 above SG↔KL given the extra distance and mountain drive, all tolls included — see our SG to KL chauffeur and our fleet.

What Strawberry Park Resort is

Strawberry Park sits at around 1,300 metres — about 500m lower than the summit’s RWG cluster but still firmly in the cool-highland band (16-22°C typical daytime). 281 rooms across 4-star tier, multi-room family suites, on-site Padma Buffet, heated pool, gym, and the cluster of outdoor attractions that make it a destination in its own right.

The positioning question is Strawberry Park versus the summit hotels covered in our Genting hotel guide. The r1 hotel guide covers the seven RWG summit hotels — First World, Genting Grand, Crockfords, Maxims, Theme Park Hotel — all at the casino-and-theme-park summit. Strawberry Park is the mid-mountain alternative: lower elevation, outdoor-anchored, family-coded rather than casino-coded, a clear price tier below. Most attractions still sit at the summit, so a Strawberry Park stay means using the free shuttle or a chauffeur up the mountain.

Rooms and rates

The 281-room property runs across superior, deluxe, family suite and a handful of premium categories. Approximate rates: SGD $80-180/night, with family suites at the upper end. Summit RWG hotels run SGD $150-400+ on the same dates — the mid-mountain saving (typically SGD 70-150/night) is real, and the hotel is genuinely 4-star quality. Heated pool, gym, on-site Padma Buffet (lunch MYR 65 / dinner MYR 90), free parking. Free shuttle to Awana SkyWay base and Genting Highlands Premium Outlets every 30 minutes — convenient for casual day-runs to the summit, less convenient for tight timing on a SkyWorlds slot or Arena of Stars concert.

On-site attractions

The strawberry farm is the headline — pick-your-own at MYR 10/100g + MYR 5 entry, daily 9 AM to 6 PM. Yields are highest in wet season (Nov-Jan), lowest in dry summer (Mar-Apr). The lavender + flower garden is free walking trails (bloom best Mar-May and Oct-Dec). The mushroom-farm tour runs guided tours with tasting (MYR 12 adult / MYR 8 child). The animal park is a petting zoo (rabbits, guinea pigs, ponies; MYR 10 / MYR 6) for kids 3-7. The maze garden + mini golf combo at MYR 15 fills 60-90 minutes.

Strawberry Park attraction pricing at a glance

Attraction	Adult (MYR)	Child (MYR)	Notes
Strawberry picking	5 entry + 10/100g	Same	9 AM – 6 PM; lower yields Mar-Apr
Lavender + flower garden	Free	Free	Bloom Mar-May + Oct-Dec
Mushroom farm tour	12	8	Guided with tasting
Animal park	10	6	Petting zoo
Maze + mini golf combo	15	15	~60-90 min combined
Padma Buffet (dinner)	~90	Half price	On-site at the resort

Total on-site cost for a family of four across all attractions runs roughly MYR 150-200 plus picking-by-weight — modest for a half-to-full day of outdoor activities.

Who Strawberry Park is for

SG families with kids 3-12 — the clearest fit. See our forthcoming Genting family with kids guide.
Couples wanting a quieter mid-mountain retreat — less hectic than the summit. See our forthcoming Genting couples getaway guide.
Multi-day Genting visitors splitting the trip — 3D2N as 1 night summit + 1 night Strawberry Park gives variety.

Not for: solo casino-focused travellers, couples wanting the Hakkasan-and-rooftop-bar stack, or anyone with tight timing around an Arena of Stars concert.

Strawberry Park vs Cameron strawberry destinations

The honest comparison most SG families ask: Strawberry Park at Genting versus the strawberry farms at Cameron Highlands. Cameron is the larger and more established strawberry destination — multiple competing farms, larger picking acreage, broader cool-highland agricultural setting that makes it a 2D1N trip in its own right. Genting Strawberry Park is smaller and works as an add-on inside a main Genting trip. If strawberries are your headline, Cameron is the better trip; if Genting is the headline and strawberries are a half-day add-on for the kids, Strawberry Park is the right pick. Same logic for cool-highland hotels generally — see our Cameron hotel guide.

How to plan a Strawberry Park stay from Singapore

Genting is ~390 km / 5.5-6 hours from SG via Tuas Second Link, the NSE, the KL ring and the Karak Highway turn-off. Strawberry Park sits at mid-mountain — about 5 km / 10 minutes down from the summit. From SGD ~390 (Standard MPV) for SG↔Genting one-way — about SGD 50 above SG↔KL given the extra distance and mountain drive, all tolls included. Standard MPV (Voxy / Noah / Serena, 7-seat) for a family of 4-5; Luxury MPV (Alphard / Vellfire) the recline-seat call for older parents. Groups of 8+ take the 13-seater Combi tier in our group bus rental; see our fleet for tier options. Multi-day stays use a full-day driver-style hourly arrangement on the mountain. Self-drivers need the VEP application (mandatory since July 2025). For the cool-weather context see our Genting cool weather guide.

Pitfalls and things to know

Less centralised than summit hotels. SkyWorlds, casino, SkyAvenue all sit at the summit; a Strawberry Park stay means free shuttle or chauffeur up.
Summer dry months reduce strawberry yields. Mar-Apr can be patchy; wet season (Nov-Jan) gives most fruit but worse outdoor weather elsewhere.
Wet weather makes outdoor activities patchy. Maze, lavender garden and animal park largely unusable in heavy rain.
Free shuttle has fixed schedule. Book a chauffeur run if timing is critical.
Padma Buffet is mid-tier. Solid but not at Genting Grand level — see our forthcoming Genting food guide.
No casino, no SkyWorlds. A Strawberry Park-anchored trip plans summit days separately.
Within-tier vehicle pooling. A Standard MPV booking lands a Voxy / Noah / Serena rather than a specific model — confirm seven seats, not a nameplate.

FAQ

Is Strawberry Park Resort cheaper than Genting summit hotels?

Yes — typically SGD $80-180/night for standard categories, versus SGD $150-400+ at summit RWG hotels. The mid-mountain saving is meaningful — usually SGD 70-150/night below comparable summit options — and the hotel is genuinely 4-star quality. See our Genting hotel guide for the summit cluster comparison.

What’s on-site at Strawberry Park?

Strawberry farm (MYR 10/100g + MYR 5 entry), lavender garden (free), mushroom-farm tour (MYR 12 / MYR 8), animal petting park (MYR 10 / MYR 6), maze + mini golf combo (MYR 15), Padma Buffet, heated pool and gym. Family-anchored cluster pitched at kids 3-12.

How does it compare to Cameron Highlands strawberry farms?

Cameron is the larger strawberry destination — multiple competing farms, broader cool-highland agricultural setting that makes it a 2D1N trip in its own right. Genting Strawberry Park works as an add-on inside a main Genting trip. See our Cameron strawberry farm guide.

Is Strawberry Park family-friendly?

Yes — the clearest fit profile. Cool weather is novelty for SG kids, the on-site attractions are pitched at kids 3-12, multi-room family suites are available. See our forthcoming Genting family with kids guide.

Does Strawberry Park work for couples?

Yes, as a quieter mid-mountain alternative to the casino-and-mall summit. For the full romantic-Genting picture (fine dining, spa, cocktails) the summit Genting Grand is stronger — see our forthcoming Genting couples getaway guide.

How do I get from Strawberry Park to the Genting summit?

Free shuttle every 30 minutes to Awana SkyWay base + Genting Highlands Premium Outlets — from there ride the cable car up to SkyAvenue. Or drive 5 km / 10 minutes up the mountain road. Book a chauffeur run if timing is tight (theme park slot, concert).

How do we get from Singapore to Strawberry Park?

Private chauffeur door-to-door for the 5.5-6 hour SG↔Genting run, from SGD ~390 for the Standard MPV one-way (about SGD 50 above SG↔KL given the extra distance and mountain drive), all tolls included. We drop straight at the Strawberry Park entrance. WhatsApp us with hotel address, dates and group size.
