If you’re getting married in the next 12 months and you're on the hunt for your perfect honeymoon experience,
then here’s a honeymoon package you simply MUST see!
Offering a tropical escape surrounded by towering limestone
hills and lush rainforest, The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat is an exotic adult-only paradise with romance high on their agenda. Which is nowhere more evident than
as exampled by their fiercely in-demand ‘Celebrate Love’ experience – which just
happens to be one of our most popular honeymoon packages in the whole of Malaysia.
Before we WOW you with the package itself, it’s worth a quick look at what makes Malaysia such as great choice for honeymooners.
Because whilst Malaysia is still not quite as popular as its neighbouring Thailand, it's fast becoming a favourite destination for couples celebrating romance. And we love it!
A few of the reasons for Malaysia’s growing popularity include:
The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat is located in the north-western city of Ipoh. This vibrant colonial city still hasn’t quite reached the heady heights of mass-tourism making NOW the ideal time to book your trip – just before the rest of world all get in on the secret.
This is especially urgent as the city itself has in recent years earned itself
the title as Malaysia’s culture capital, thanks to its impressive British-influenced
colonial architecture, secret street art, cave temples and lip-smacking cuisine. TOP TIP: if you’re a pair of foodies this could most certainly be the honeymoon
destination for you.
Alongside Ipoh’s trendy café culture (you must try their famous white coffee during your time here), boutiques and hotels, Ipoh is also home to some of the most staggering natural scenery Malaysia has to offer. You'll be nothing but amazed by the limestone cliffs here that house exotic cave temples within dramatic rock formations. As well as other natural attractions here such as the awesome cascading waterfall at Ulu Kinta Forest Reserve, or strolling hand-in-hand along the Kinta River that meanders through the limestone cliffs and divides Ipoh’s old and new towns.
Only 15 minutes drive from Ipoh city (and 2 hours drive from
Kuala Lumpur) you’ll find the Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat.
There are many reasons why couples and honeymooners are drawn to the Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat.
Not least because of its unique
setting in a 22.7-acre valley, cradled by 260 million-year old towering Paleozoic
limestone hills, verdant rainforest, rejuvenating geothermal hot springs,
natural caves and cascading waterfalls.
Yep, it’s impressive!
So, if you’ve got this far and you’re thinking Ipoh could be
the honeymoon destination for you then you’ll no doubt be waiting with baited
breath to see just what it is that makes THIS (in our opinion and many of our
customers) the best honeymoon experience in Malaysia.
Here goes…
Each contemporary villa comes with its own private pool and sunken Jacuzzi, and honeymooners are guaranteed to enjoy a relaxed and peaceful retreat in complete privacy.
You can also choose to stay in either the Garden Villas with their breath-taking jungle views…
…Or the Water Villas that look straight out onto the passing
canal.
Either way each villa offers something unique and
unforgettable, including a romantic welcome with sparkling wine and canapés. You’ll
also awake each morning to a delicious (and healthy) daily breakfast.
As part of the ‘Celebrate Love’ package you’ll be treated to 2 romantic candlelight 4-course set dinners.
The first is at their Pomelo Restaurant (named after a famous Ipoh fruit). And here you’ll be led by candlelight along a wooden deck towards an exclusive romantic dining experience just for two.
Your next honeymoon dinner (and one you’ll ever forget) is set
within a limestone cave restaurant known as Jeff’s Cellar. This truly unique venue
offers an incredible selection of wines, while its mesmerising natural beauty
is sure to leave a lasting impression on all who visit.
And finally, (although this is additional to the package
inclusions) we highly recommend honeymooners book Banjaran’s magical Star Deck seven-course gourmet dinner served up under Malaysia’s star filled night sky.
Well yes, at the Banjaran it does!
Honeymooners and romantic couples are also spoilt on one evening
of your choice with a candlelight illuminated Jacuzzi bath on turn-down in the
privacy of your Villa with rose petal walkway.
(As
you’d probably expect from a world-class wellness destination such as the Banjaran
Hotsprings Retreat).
Here’s a quick overview...
Within the resort itself you’ll have access to its natural geothermal hot springs dipping pools containing three million litres of fresh hot water that bubbles up daily from the ground below and is renown for its healing properties.
The hotsprings also creating a natural sauna in the thermal steam cave and the brave can then cool off by plunging into a freezing ice bath.
As you can see much what makes the Banjaran so special is its
otherworldly setting within the limestones caves of Ipoh. And just as the
Chinese Buddhists were inspired to use theses caves as places of worship, the calming
temperatures and absence of external sounds and interruptions, will focus your
mind in silence for complete relaxation and contemplation in the natural
granite and limestone – and the resort reserves a couples of caves specifically
for guest meditation and reiki.
Alongside romance your stay here will also be truly holistic
experience and the Celebrate Love package includes a 60-minute AromatherapyMassage for you and your partner. You may of course wish to book yourselves in
for additional treatments during your stay and there’s a choice of over 40
Asian holistic treatments and therapies offered for the full relaxation of the
body and rejuvenation of the mind.
So, if you’re a honeymooning couple who like a bit of action, you’ll most certainly want to go on the Banjaran’s jungle walk which takes you on a 30-minute trail through the region’s unique flora and fauna, cascading waterfalls and mysterious caves deep within the limestone hill forest of the Lost World of Tambun.
For those who are unacquainted, the Lost World of Tambun is
one of Asia’s top theme parks and you’ll enjoy complimentary access as part of
your package. Even if theme parks aren’t you’re thing this place is well worth
a visit thanks to its setting amongst some of the region’s most staggeringly
beautiful landscapes.
The park itself is described as a world of adventure comprising
a total of 9 different attractions including the Water Park, Lost World
Amusement Park, Lost World Hot Springs & Night Park, Lost World Tiger
Valley, Lost World Petting Zoo, the Lost World Tin Valley, Lost World Adventure
Park, Hippo Kingdom and Luminous Forest.
So, there you have it. Malaysia’s best honeymoon experience.
