The Haven Ipoh ... the luxury in the green nature !


The Haven Ipoh , one of the most luxuries condotel for family holiday  situated at Tambun , Perak .  It is about 8.8km from bandar raya Ipoh  and not very far from an exit of North South Highway to Tambun .  This area not only famous with limau bali or the limestone hill , it is also a fast development area for tourist attraction . Beside The Haven ,  there are 2 more others  attractions nearby for tourist to have their holidays such as Lost World in Tambun and  The Banjaran . This is a place where the families or honeymoon couple can spend their time enjoying the water parks , spa , sauna and the green nature .

At The Haven Ipoh , right from the 1st entrance of main gate , they welcome you at the warmest and you feel like at home . A quick brief by the security officer on the condotel procedure , do and don'ts plus giving you the guide the way to drive until you reached the condotel which is another 0.5KM  distant inside .

Once you reached the hotel compound , there are 3 main block building , standing tall in front of you and the other opposite side , they are facing to the lake and limestone forest hill . This limestone forest hill is already by the aged of 280 millions year . The view really awesome especially during sunset .

The hotel staff are very friendly . They greet and welcome you with a special herba drinks . Our room that we booked a  3 bedroom apartments which is very clean , spacious , beautiful and comfortable . There are enough kitchenette if you want to cook or just to prepared a cup of coffee or tea . View from our room , they are really  fantastic  . Also you can see a huge swimming pool with the shape of seahorse , the lake and the limestone hill .  Something good for the guest here , the swimming pool opens until 10 pm , so  this a plus point to the kids who loves water very much .  Others than that you can jogging along the trek they provided which is surrounding the lake .  Along the trek , they also planted a lot of herba trees with names on placard which is good interesting educational to you and to your kids . There are also monkeys available but be cautious not to feed the monkeys or they may attack you . Other interesting things for your kids there are a dinosaur at the garden where you can take selfie or welfie .

How about the foods ?  We only took the breakfast . The taste was marvellous . All the foods they prepared are without MSG . The chef said their vegetables are organic and the eggs are " telor ayam kampung " . The waiter and waitress are very humble and friendly too .

We really recommend this place which you can feel like living in the limestone forest which ONLY can be found in Tambun , Perak , Malaysia .

1. Gua Tempurung .
2. Gunung Lang .
3. Mural at Concubine Lane .

Kellie's Castle at Batu Gajah , Perak

Last March school holiday , we went to my cousin's daughter wedding at Batu Gajah , Perak . We booked a homestay at Baju Gajah town . We rented it for RM180 for 2D1N . The house is clean , comfortable and have 4 bedrooms . I booked this homestay via wazzup after doing some google through the website " homestay at Batu Gajah " . The name of the homestay is " D'Batu Gajah homestay " . The owner is known as En Mie . He is nice young man but unfortunately , I didn't meet him in person . Anyhow we love the place . Recommend this homestay to whom like to have holiday or function  in Batu Gajah .


Since the location not very far from Kellie's Castle ,  we have the opportunity to visit the place . This is one of the historical and tourist area in Perak . This castle is famous with mysterious story and if I'm not mistaken a film was shot regarding this castle . During my visit there was a drawing competition which was  organised by Tourism Malaysia . So we can find many people on that day .

Below is the entrance fee for the visitor :
1. Parking fee  :  RM2.00
2. Kellie's Castle entrance fee  :  RM5.00  ( Malaysian Adult with Mykad )
                                                :   RM3.00  ( Malaysian kid with Mykad )



For info. this is our first time visit to this place . From my observation this place is worth for visit , very clean and well preserved building with an European art design in Malaysian ground . If you like to buy a souvenir ,  there are some souvenir shop available and food court to cater your hunger and thirst .
