The Royal Belum Getaway

(Original pictures courtesy of Nicole)

Peaceful & calm -- surrounded by emerald green waters, rolling hills and greet by a perfect arch of the rainbow, that's what we have experienced in our recent trip to the Royal Belum Forest.

Located at Tasik Temenggor, Perak, we stayed at a private island owned by the award winning Belum Eco-resort Sdn. Bhd.

Managed by the Khong's family, our handsome host, Tom, made our stay a most enjoyable one. We expected to rough it out in the 130 million years old forest but instead was greeted with 5-star dishes and treatments.

You'll have people to carry your bags, hot shower if you like, unlimited use of non-motor watersport, fruits with every meal, baked potato with secret recipe sauce..... This is really "Heaven" !!!

The best thing about this place is that it is built around the surrounding nature with minimal trees being cut down. You'll never get bored enjoying the wonderful view. However, if you are the type that can't stay away from the city entertaintment (hehehe...) you can still watch the Astro & play mahjong (not kidding!!). But for me, doing nothing is just the best........aahhhh. :)
