Harmony Valley Retreat Di Janda Baik: Weekend Getaway Yang Mendamaikan

Harmony Valley Retreat Di Janda Baik: Weekend Getaway In Lush Misty Mountain

This staycation was what, late last year? Somewhere in November I think, during Deepavali long weekend.

Vacation yilek, staycation pun jadilah sis. 

Personally, I find that staycation is much more relaxing because you don't have to go through the hassle of planning your itinerary.

Most of all, you don't have to go through the stress of traveling. Urghhh, few hours to & fro airport, waiting at the airport, the stress and anxiety of going through immigration and such.

Just thinking about it makes me tired. #sisaging

So anyway, back to Harmony Valley Retreat. You know la, sis ni suka tempat yang aman, back to nature, nyaman sejuk-sejuk. Untuk lari daripada hiruk pikuk kota metropolitan.

And Harmony Valley Retreat is just the perfect place to rejuvenate, recharge & relax. Admittedly, the thing that cemented my decision was this review from a customer

"So serene & you can hear birds chirping in the morning"

Harmony Valley Retreat is just 45 minutes - 1 hour drive to K.L, nestled among the rolling hills & misty mountain of Janda Baik. 

The moment you enter Tanah Sum Sum, you'll feel like in a different world. The pace is slower, the air is cooler and immediately you'll feel a sense of tranquility. Because it's a private property area, there is very little traffic.

Sebijik manusia pun tidak kelihatan. Inilah yang sis impikan. lagi-lagi bila sis disambut dengan kabus-kabus manja bersembunyi di celah dedaun hijau, sis rasa gembira sangat.

Although they only have 2 staff, check-in was a breeze. It's a 3 storey bungalow without a lift and the staff helped me to carry my things into the room. And didn't even want to accept my tips for his help. Wow.

My favourite view


Look how spacious the bathroom is
The room is SPACIOUS and I like the high ceiling & tall windows overlooking the trees outside. The bed is so comfy & TV channel selection is adequate (they have Fox Movie). The room is without aircond but who needs one when the fresh air is so cool. 

I sleep with the windows open. Takutlah jugak kan kalau-kalau ada "benda" terbang masuk tengah malam buta. CHoiiiiii.
Literally, merenung ke luar jendela

And phone reception is nada. Which is just what I need. hahahahha.

The place was so serene & quiet. There are also other guests but everyone is just so quiet. The only noise you hear is the sound of nature like birds chirping & leaves rustling.

To make things even more wonderful, it then started to rain. I pulled the chair nearer to the open window, made a cup of coffee & just sit there looking at the rain falling, mist rolling in & nestled among the trees.

Ohh. I can't describe the feeling but it's just the best thing in the world. So blissful.

Stroll around the area in the evening & night time was spent reading & watching tv.

If you are looking for excitement with lots of things to do, this isn't the place for you.

But if you are looking for somewhere to unwind, be in nature, meditate & for some introspection, I highly recommend Harmony Valley Retreat.


Can you see the little green frog on the lotus leaf? Can you imagine I spent 15 minutes looking at frogs jumping in & out of the pool? hahahhaha
They also served this hearty breakfast

 Will I be back? You bet.

Nasi Penyebab Kegemukkan?

Betul Ke Nasi Boleh Menyebabkan Kegemukkan? "Shima, jom lunch ni kita pergi makan nasi campur kat gerai depan tu nak?" tanya Mira kepada rakan sekerjanya, Shima.  "Eh, tak boleh! I tengah on low carbs diet ni. I tak boleh makan nasik. " ujar Shima sambil mencebik seolah nasik tu musuh ketat dia. "Lorhh ye ke. Bukan engko tak boleh hidup tanpa nasik ke?
