Tanjong Jara Resort: Epic Serenity

We JUST came back from Tanjong Jara Resort and we were truly cleansed; body, spirit and soul, by the amazing experience. We were there to celebrate our 6th Anniversary (already?).


The service was excellent and the food was simple but amazingly fresh and delicious. The place was peaceful, calm and serene. We were constantly in the dreamy state of mind.


Funny that one has to pay a premium to enjoy the simple things of life. Thankfully for this package, it was a seamless experience from flying off from Subang to TJR and back to PJ. Plus, we enjoyed some savings (although it still burnt a hole in our bank account).

Enough talk, let the pictures do the talking!

TJR lobby:


Our journey from the lobby to our room. Their staff, Siddiq, was showing us around. (All their staff are trained to address us by names; whenever, wherever)


Staircase leading up to our room

And... our room!

The magical bed! The mattress "hugs" you to sleep. The moment our head touched the pillows...zzz...ZZZ

And of course...the beach!

Low tide

High tide

Chilling out, while catching up with our reading


The TJR Spa, famous for its traditional Malay spa treatment


During dinner, were were serenaded by a duo playing gamelan music (very gentle, very soft traditional Malay music)


And finally, on our last night during dinner, Chef Ann surprised us with a small Anniversary cake! How did they know? Well, we were talking to the Guest Relations Manager (Miss Gin) the night before and through our conversations, she must have picked up all these details. So sweet of them!

While we were still commenting on their extraordinary service, when we headed back to our room after dinner, we were further surprised!

What's that little thing sitting on the corner of the bed?


It's an elephant made up of hand towels with a simple Happy Anniversary greeting written on a leaf!


AND AND...they jazzed up the bathtub with candles, warm water, foam and flower petals!


We had to do something to show our gratitude. Tipping would insult them as their service was well...priceless! So, we immediately "social network" our experience, Like their facebook page and wrote them a Thank You note. And here's a little something we did with the petals

Top Travel Destinations in Australia

Below are some of the top travel destinations in Australia which I guess no one should miss.

The most active nightlife in all of Australia is in Sydney. This city is the main entry point in Australia for most people. There are so many interesting sites this city offers. From opera house, Darling Harbor with marine aquarium to lots of shopping malls and museums. You can have a complete view of the city from the top of Sydney Tower.

A small city like Cairns has many fantastic things you can do. Going to Great Barrier Reef offers unique views of the rainforest. Watch waterfalls and further visit to Port Douglas and Daintree National Park which has biggest variety of plants.




Pretty beaches of Gold Coast are out of the ordinary for surfers and people who love beaches. With many waterfalls, vegetation and fauna; the adjoining mountains and National Parks are not to be missed at all.

Fraser Island is basically for nature lovers. Magnetic Island is located in front of Townsville with full of incredible beaches. Koalas and Kangaroos can be seen in their natural habitat.

Whitsundays is a paradise for maritime sports with exceptional nightlife and restaurants. This is just the right place to do a tour in a sailboat.

Ayers Rocks are situated in the heart of Australia, close to the city of Alice Springs. All of the backgrounds are deserts full of extraordinary places.

Other top travel destinations in Australia that are breath taking and not to be missed are:

Melbourne is not at all to be missed when travelling to Australia. With its multiculturalism, nightlife with variety of restaurants makes you want more and more of this city. Great Ocean Road which is about three hours driving from Melbourne follows the coast and mountains makes your drive worth.

Kakadu National Park close to Darwin is one of the most beautiful National Parks in Australia with abundance of wild life and wide range of countrywide plants. But it can get difficult to walk alone in the park without finding other tourists.

Tasmania is one of the prettiest places in Australia, and in certain way it might remind some of you of landscapes of New Zealand. Pleasant cities with exceptional road and rail network to visitors. The scenery is the best part, with extravagant beaches.

There are many historical places to visit in Tasmania. The beauty of this city lies in its wildlife, mountains and lagoons.
