🌿 Who knew paradise was this close? A hidden bamboo retreat near Sepang, surrounded by limestone hills and a crystal-clear lake 💦 Perfect for a quick escape from the city or a chill pre/post-flight stay. We spent the weekend: ✅ Diving off bamboo platforms ✅ Swinging like Tarzan 🐒 ✅ Floating on rafts under the sun ✅ Chilling in a cozy bamboo hut (no aircon needed—just nature) 🏕️ Stayed lakeside with forest views and peaceful vibes. 🔥 Tip: Hit the swing and drop straight into the lake. You’ll scream, then laugh. Whether you're road-tripping with friends, traveling through KLIA, or just need a break—Tadom Hill near Sepang is totally worth it. 📸 Bring a waterproof phone case. You will get wet. #sepangitinerary

#newyearadventure I stayed here over the weekend with my family. It was a great experience staying in a bamboo hut. Initially I was afraid if the resort is not in a good condition due to the flood situation that impacted them end of last year. But my worries are unfounded as the moment I reach the resort, I can see that the resort had done an excellent job in cleaning up and beautifying the place. The check in progress was okay as there weren’t many people. I guess it’s due to the increased recent Covid cases. The receptionist is friendly and helpful. However, the food can be improve further. The room I stayed is clean and cooling at night (without turning on the air on) but don’t expect it to be hotel like standard. #MyTripVlog #2023TravelWish #tripblazers #yearofrabbit #newyearadventure

tired but satisfy

Wonder sunset at Pantai Morib. Would be better if sky is clear. Food is not bad at this restaurant

📍Address: Gold Coast Morib Resort

Tried lunch at this restaurant for the first time. The staff is friendly and service is good. The atmosphere in the restaurant is interesting and comfortable with Middle Eastern music. We are very satisfied with the service from the staff and the food served. We ordered Lamb Haneeth, Shish Tawook, Hummus Shami, Fried Chicken Drummet and Adani Tea Milk was tempting and delicious. The portions are big and the price is reasonable. Very recommended!! Will repeat again next time!! 📍Address: Hadramout King, Banting
