Place review

TADOM HILLS RESORT

I have always heard about Tadom Hills Resort but I never get a chance to visit the place yet. The pictures alone have made me feel beyond excited to explore the place. From the pictures, I assume that this place is a soothing little camouflage that you would never believe exist somewhere near Banting. Finally, the opportunity has come to me to experience Tadom Hills Resort. Here goes my review!

Tadom Hills Resort is situated 10-15 minutes away from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), 20 minutes away from Banting and 45 minutes away from Kuala Lumpur (KL).

It is bordered by spring water; a lake, limestone hills and a man made beach. Almost everything in Tadom Hills Resort was built by using bamboos to maintain the melodious relationship between man and nature. It is indeed an amazing architecture designs inspired by nature. However, this place is actually still under construction. I believe they want to add more attractions towards this place than they already have so far which is good.

My group of friends and I arrived at Tadom Hills Resort at about 10 in the morning and my lecturer immediately went to get us the pass. When we arrived, I must say I got blown away by the fresh air this place has given me. It was what I needed after so long and my mood was beyond great. I simply cannot wait to explore this place!

If you have gone to Sunway Lagoon, Tadom Hills Resort provides you the same pass. When you have paid, you are going to wear a bracelet to indicate that you are free to enjoy Tadom Hills Resort all the way.

The price range varies for students who have their students’ card ready. They have to pay RM13 while normal visitors have to pay RM20 per entry.  From my opinion, I think the price is very reasonable and it is good that they give a privilege for students.

Once you pay, you are free to play whatever they offer. For an example, they have giant Jengga game which is so interesting to play with your group of friends, giant checked game that is nerve-wrecking, a very relaxing and mind blowing water rafting and many more. You can also jump into the lake from a 5metre platform that they have instilled for you. I think that interests adventurous people more as they can definitely show their cool poses or jumps over and over again as they please.

They also provide you life jackets whenever you want to play in the water. The life jacket is a must wear here because the lake is deep. Without the life jacket, you will drown and nobody could rescue you because of the depth of the lake overpowers the will of a rescuer, I believe.

For some people who rarely play in the water like me, wearing life jackets might be uncomfortable. But safety is always first no matter what. It will be uncomfortable in the beginning but you will get used to it as time passes by and when you become one with nature.

In addition to all those interesting games and activities they provided at Tadom Hills Resort, you can also go for camping. They have all the camping sites ready for you to experience with your families and friends. Not to worry, they also have built in toilets, showers, surau for Muslims and you can rent their BBQ equipments too.

One of the attractions they have that I find it very cool is their restaurant. Together, they have a stage for people to sing! For those who love singing like me, I believe you will find it cool as well. Communicating through music is the best thing one could ever master. It would be much better if people, who listen to it, appreciate it as much as the singers do. I find it such a handsome way to get connected.

Moreover, Tadom Hills Resort has a very unique built in three-storey bamboo house. There will be stairs for you to get to each storey. What is attractive in this house is that, it is a place for lovers, friends or families to hang their wishes or prayers up at the ceilings of each storey with a wood placard.

So you can write whatever you want, messages, wishes or prayers onto the wood placard, and hang them afterwards. It is just the same concept as the “love lock tower” in Korea that is called “Namsan Tower” where you could write down your names at the lock and lock your love forever at the tower. I get fluttered when I went inside the house and witnessed the love letters or messages people have hanged there. Such a heart fluttering memory, indeed and the bamboo house is too pretty to be true!

Overall, this place is very interesting for me. I had fun with my group of friends. I specifically love their water rafting because that is all I did there as I’m not really a fan of water diving. This field trip has actually released all of my stress due to its fresh air and nature. I enjoyed myself to the maximum and I believe this place is highly recommended for a first timer like me. This place is suitable for families, friends, team building, field trips, adventurous experience or even just a casual outing. For those who want to go to Tadom Hills Resort, I hope this place can be a stress reliever for you too. Have fun!
