#springitinerary My Weekend Escape to Yi Mu Tian 🌿 Sometimes, all we need is a little escape from the noise of the city — and Yi Mu Tian was exactly that for me. Tucked away in a quiet corner surrounded by dense greenery, this place felt like a secret retreat where I could truly reconnect with nature. 🌳✨ The vibe? Minimalist Muji-style rooms that were calm, clean, and just so refreshing. I felt instantly relaxed the moment I stepped in. 🌄 Morning starts slow and peaceful: Breakfast was such a lovely touch — you can pick either a Western-style big breakfast or go local with warm porridge and six flavorful side dishes. Both were delicious, but I personally loved the simplicity of the porridge. 🌙 Dinner time = hotpot joy! Dinner comes with a choice between a set meal or a classic Yuan Yang hotpot. Most guests (including me!) went for the hotpot — it was cozy and fun, and you’re even allowed to bring your own ingredients if you want to! 🍲🔥 🐐 Mini animal zone? Yes please! There’s a mini petting zoo on site, which was a lovely surprise. They have scheduled feeding times (totally free), and in the morning you can even try your hand at fishing! 💦 Facilities for all ages They’ve got a swimming pool, karaoke, and a playground for the little ones. And if you're into badminton — bring your rackets! There’s plenty of open space to enjoy. I left feeling refreshed, recharged, and super grateful for this little pocket of calm. #NatureRetreat #MalaysiaStaycation #YiMuTian #HiddenGem #WeekendGetaway #EscapeTheCity

✨ Sugeh Hill Resort, Janda Baik – My Honest Review ✨ 📅 Stay: October 2021 🏡 Room: Gadis Lompat (yes, that’s really the room name! 😅) 💸 Rate: RM170 (Weekdays). Weekend rates are different, ya! This resort is owned by Dato’ Aliff Syukri Terlajak Laris 🌿 Here’s my honest, personal experience as a regular guest 👇 ⸻ 📍 Location • Very strategic – close to eateries and convenience stores. • There’s an on-site café where you can dine in or take away. The food is a bit pricey, but tasty! I’m not too fussy when it comes to food as long as I’m full 😅 • The river is crystal clear and very clean – perfect for a dip! ⸻ 🛏️ Room • Clean, but a bit cramped for a standard room. If you want more space, go for a bigger room (of course, it costs more too 😅) • The bed is super comfy – really stands out compared to other hotels 😍 • The bathroom is spacious and clean, but they only provided one towel
