The Secluded Natural Sanctuary @ The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat, Ipoh

Deep in the lush vegetation of the northern state of Perak, lies The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat - one of the nature's most well-kept secrets. Being dubbed as Malaysia's luxury hot spring retreat, The Banjaran is locked away in a haven lost in time encircled by natural caves, pristine jungle, waterfalls and natural geothermal hot springs.

The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat is a sanctuary within a sanctuary. A 15-minute drive from the city of Ipoh and a 2-hours drive from KL, this idyllic escape is tucked away in a 16.59 acre valley surrounded by magical towering Paleozoic limestone hills of 260 million years. It is best described as an enchanting hideaway for spiritual time-out, complete relaxation and rejuvenation, with an emphasis on bespoke wellness.

The geothermal heated swimming pool's warm water is perfect for healing, relaxing and rejuvenating.

Each villa features an outdoor terrace with a plunge pool, private outdoor rain shower and a sunken Jacuzzi with natural geothermal hot springs water.

With just 25 exclusive garden and water villas spread across a sweeping valley floor, one can rest away in the privacy of cove, where nature plays the perfect host. The retreat's Garden Villas are set within secluded tropical gardens and its Water Villas rest on the banks of a water canal.

This was my first time dipping my legs at the fish pool. I felt the tingling sensation when exotic Garra Rufa fish swam towards me and eliminating dead skin cells off my feet.
