Nikon recently has launched a slew of new digital camera, but the one from the stable that really attracts my attention is their Coolpix S1000pj! So what sets S1000pj from its peers? Of course it is none other than its built-in digital projector. Yeah! Imagine that you can use your digital camera as your digital projector to showcase to your audience the photos and videos that you have just captured.

And Nikon Coolpix S1000pj can boost that it is the 1st one to be able to project images and beam it right on your walls.

My family and I cannot forget the unparalleled beauty and allure that only a hotel like this can offer.Holiday Inn Melaka Location: The Heartbeat of ConvenienceHoliday Inn Melaka Hotel finds its home in the vibrant heart of Melaka, a city that’s proudly recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its deep-rooted history and rich cultural heritage. Nestled within the bustling trade hub of Melaka Raya, this hotel is encircled by a plethora of shops, eateries and exciting entertainment venues.

Hence, you will know that IHG Hotels are globally renowned for their premium hospitality services. It is no surprise that Holiday Inn Melaka redefines luxury in hospitality with its 275 refined rooms and suites that leave guests including me and my family astounded. You’ll find yourself reluctant to check out once you step into this 5-star hotel!Holiday Inn Melaka an IHG HotelAs soon as we set foot on the grounds of Sheraton Petaling Jaya, a friendly potter immediately assisted us with our bags and guided us to the reception. From our very first steps inside, it was evident that we were in for a luxurious treat! As aforementioned, the design of the hotel seemed to effortlessly blend modern and classic traditional aesthetics. Every corner of the hotel exuded an air of grandeur and magnificence. The decor wasn’t just visually stunning but the staff, particularly at reception, were exceptionally welcoming and forward-thinking. Check-in was a breeze and in no time we were heading towards our hotel room.Holiday Inn Melaka Hotel Room ReviewUpon receiving our room keys, we joyfully dashed to our luxurious Executive Club Room. Jordan boy and Jasmine girl were delightfully pulling their own Trunki Luggage, filled with the anticipation of the fantastic experience that awaited us. As we opened the door, we were welcomed by the magnificent interior design. Everything matched the opulence seen in the concierge area. We promptly settled in and started to soak up the indulgent atmosphere that instantly made us feel relaxed and contented. I must confess, Holiday Inn Melaka has surpassed itself to ensure that our stay would be not only enjoyable but tremendously relaxing as well.Spacious and Comfortable RoomPlenty of space for everything!I couldn’t help but share in the contagious excitement of Jordan and Jasmine as they prepared for their bath. Their anticipation was palpable, and who can blame them? Both of them were absolutely thrilled about trying out the latest luxurious bath in Holiday Inn Melaka. Surprisingly, we got to enjoy lavish Dove's shampoo, body wash, body lotion (yes!) and even handwash. Usually, hotels will not provide such branded toiletries. So, this was a first for us.Luxurious Bath Tub and Shower SpaceImagine the luxury - It’s not an everyday experience to immerse oneself in a swanky bathtub where you can enjoy your bubble bath, right? The bathroom was just grand with its vast space accommodating both a bathtub and a separate shower area! And yes, it’s that enormous. They even added a thoughtful touch for the ladies - a magnifying mirror; every woman’s best friend, no? 😂Super Cozy MattressesExtra mattress requested!After our refreshing shower or bath (depending on which one we took), we promptly “plunged into” our enormous beds. There’s nothing quite like the comfort of sprawling out on an oversized, cuddly bed that can cradle you to sleep in no time. Though our Executive Club Room only had one queen size bed and a single bed, we requested an extra bed which the hotel quickly fulfilled for us in no time. Even with the extra bed rolled in, we still had ample space in the room.Deep Relaxing SleepThey say a good night's sleep is important and that is what you will get when you stay in Holiday Inn Melaka. We were totally pampered by the luxurious mattresses, crisp linens, cosy duvets, and an abundance of soft pillows that made leaving the beds feel like a crime! The whole family agreed - it was pure luxury! From the plush mattress that cradled us into dreamland. Waking up refreshed and rejuvenated from our deep sleep was such a rewarding experience.Well-designed Hotel RoomI must applaud the creative minds behind Holiday Inn Melaka's interior design that have truly outdone themselves! Every bedroom is a world of awe-inspiring wonder! The tranquil mattress, the snug armchair sofa; it’s an all-in-one package. Also included is a generous workstation complete with a grand wooden table catering to those who need to tick off items from their worklist before continuing their vacation. But that’s not all - a compact fridge awaits you, ready to be stocked with your choice of refreshments and nibbles!What You Can Do in Holiday Inn MelakaBesides our luxurious room stay, what truly made our hearts flutter was their breakfast buffet followed by their afternoon tea and dinner spreads. Each meal was a culinary journey where East meets West. Imagine starting your day with warm Nasi Lemak before switching to fluffy pancakes drizzled with honey! Each dish we tasted seemed to outshine the last – flavoursome, fresh, and undoubtedly fulfilling.Scrumptious Buffets for Breakfast, High Tea and DinnerBreakfast BuffetAfternoon TeaDinner Buffet!When we weren’t stuffing ourselves with food or lounging in our room, you’d probably find us at one particular spot –yes, you guessed it right- their infinity pool! Overlooking the straits of Melaka, this wet haven became our favourite place to unwind and frolic away under clear blue skies.Holiday Inn Melaka Infinity Pool and World-Class GymEven though it’s a holiday and calories don’t count (right?), we didn’t let ourselves go completely astray. Their well-equipped gym caught our attention too. With panoramic views tempting us through wall-sized windows, as we worked up a sweat on treadmills or lifted weights, fitness never felt so enjoyable before.Balinese-inspired Tea Tree Spa MassageBesides lifting weights and running on treadmills, I got to experience the famous Balinese-inspired Tea Tree Spa massage offered by Holiday Inn Melaka. Stepping into the realm of tranquillity, I found myself at the cusp of an extraordinarily pampering experience at the Balinese-inspired Tea Tree Spa. The anticipation was stirring as I surrendered my weary feet to an expert masseur for a foot massage that promised to cast away all my fatigue.Conclusion About Holiday Inn Melaka ReviewTo wrap it up, I must say that our hotel room at Holiday Inn Melaka stands out as one of the most unforgettable my family and I have had the pleasure to stay in all these years. My wife was simply overjoyed with this serene sanctuary we found ourselves in, while our children couldn’t get enough of the fun they had, especially when it came to splashing around in the infinity pool as well as their bathtub.As for myself, I relished those peaceful moments spent lounging on the comfortable armchair sofa, either engrossed in a gripping show on the LCD TV or catching up with world events through a newspaper - all this while savouring a cup of exquisitely aromatic coffee.One of the Best 5-star Hotels in Melaka

Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Room Review

If you are looking for one of the best hotels in the Petaling Jaya area, then you really need to check out Sheraton PJ. It is so good that my family and I decided to return for our second staycation in this luxurious 5-star hotel. Read our Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Room review to find out why this is the ultimate staycation for a family who needs comfortable, opulent space for you to rest and relax.Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Room ReviewJust when I thought that Sheraton PJ Hotel could no longer surprise me anymore, I was astonished to know that they had upgraded my rooms to Club Room. It is not only way bigger and more spacious, but also comes with Sheraton PJ Club Longue access 😁 (more on this later). Honestly, we totally did not expect this at all!We first stayed at Sheraton PJ Hotel two years ago in the same room. However, both Jordan boy and Jasmine girl have really grown up so much. So they require extra space when they sleep. We could no longer cram everyone in the same bed. LOL 😂 Luckily, Sheraton PJ Hotel is currently running this promotion whereby parents and their children get to stay in adjacent rooms, side-by-side (subject to availability).Sheraton PJ Hotel Deluxe King Club Lounge Access RoomNow let's get back to our rooms, shall we? There are altogether 253 contemporary rooms and suites in this palatial 5-star hotel. In our previous stay, our Deluxe King Room was already very huge and spacious and these upgraded rooms with Club Longue access are even bigger. We had two rooms which are almost identical but differed in terms of mattress(es) available.Sheraton PJ Hotel Deluxe Twin Club Lounge Access RoomMy wife and I had the room with King size mattress while Jordan and Jasmine had the room next door with the twin double beds. As expected of Sheraton PJ Hotel, the decorations inside are as grand as ever. We couldn't help but feel the rooms are super cozy thanks to the brilliant selection of materials, furniture, bedding, and lighting. The whole ambiance inside the rooms was very soothing. Certainly, world-class interior designers have worked their magic on these rooms.Our Sheraton PJ Hotel BathroomI am not going to lie that we all love to take our showers and baths in this hotel. We (especially the kids) were really eager to relish the latest premium Le Grand Bain bath amenities that were created especially for Sheraton PJ Hotel! The retractable blinder of the bathroom allowed us to dip in the posh bathtub and watch TV at the same time. The bathroom is equally big with a separate room for the shower and a bathtub. Ladies and girls will appreciate the magnifying mirror with LED.Retractable Blinder To Our See-through BathroomWe also truly enjoyed our 2 nights of staycation in the Sheraton PJ Hotel. Thanks to Sheraton Signature Sleep Experience, the mattress had this mystifying hypnotic magic to lull us to sleep instantaneously. I guess it can't be helped thanks to the cushy pillows, comfortable duvet, crisp linens, and of course, the huge plush mattress. It felt like the mattress could melt all our exhaustion and anxiety (if any) away and allowed us to wake up feeling invigorated.Sheraton Signature Sleep ExperienceIt is a shame to say that I still needed to work while on vacation and thankfully, there is a huge wooden table for me in our Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Room. I appreciate the provided workstation complete with a table lamp and super high-speed Internet access. I felt glad that I could still do some work while enjoying our holidays, away from home.Workstation at Sheraton PJ HotelThere is a mini fridge for you to chill your beverages or food. We also got to enjoy premium coffee and tea (on the house). There is also a safe for you to store your important belongings just in case you need to be away from your room but I did not use it since I felt perfectly safe to lay my stuff in the room. Other common amenities include a hairdryer, ironing board plus iron, and a shaver just to name a few. in other words, you will have everything you need here.Facilities at Sheraton PJ HotelAs I have aforementioned, both our Club Rooms in Sheraton PJ Hotel allow us to have access to the by-invitation-only space Sheraton Club Lounge. So every day, starting from 6pm until 9pm hotel guests with club lounge access will get to enjoy unlimited food, snacks, and desserts plus free-flow of beverages which include whisky, red wine, and beer just to name a few. Nothing beats enjoying premium wine while basking in the ambiance of ritzy decor overlooking the surrounding areas through the window walls (floor-to-ceiling windows). This is a luxurious experience like no other for sure!Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Lounge AccessAll in all, my family and I are super impressed with our Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Rooms. It is still one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in for our holidays. It is incredulous that we stayed in the hotel the whole time (3 days) without leaving it as we had so much to enjoy from the glorious food to the relaxing swimming time that we had. So if you are looking for one of the best hotels to stay in the PJ area or should say in KL or near KL, then Sheraton PJ Hotel should be your number 1 choice.Sheraton Petaling Jaya Hotel Review 2020Sheraton PJ Breakfast BuffetYue Sheraton PJ Chinese RestaurantMiyabi Sheraton PJ OmakaseSheraton PJ Hotel Swimming PoolsSheraton PJ Hotel GymSheraton PJ HotelWebsite: https://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/szbsi-sheraton-petaling-jaya-hotel/Sheraton PJ Contact Number: 03-7622 8888Sheraton PJ Email: sheraton.petalingjaya@sheraton.com


If you are planning for a staycation in Bayview Hotel Melaka, you will definitely want to know more about its swimming pools and other facilities, right? Our family did have a splashing time at the Bayview Hotel Melaka swimming pool. Despite no booking was needed to use the swimming pools, there was strict SOPs to adhere to.A Splashing Time at Bayview Hotel Melaka Swimming PoolTime to go swimming!Prior to enjoying our dinner at the hotel's Southern Court Chinese Restaurant, we decided to take a dip in the swimming pool. Fortunately, there were not many people after we had put on our swimsuits. Unlike the usual squarish swimming pools that we see in other hotels, the main swimming pool in Bayview Hotel Melaka is rather unique with its double elliptical shape.Let's Get Wet FirstThe moment Jordan boy and Jasmine girl saw the swimming pool, they were truly ecstatic. Can't blame them though. After all, it had been quite some time since they last had a few laps of swim or rather several splashes. Honestly, the sight of the pool also made me feel relaxed and relieved. It is always good to have some time to unwind after work.The 3 Swimming Pools at Bayview Hotel MelakaI love where the swimming pool is located, with its open space allowing you to have a panoramic look around the beautiful historical state of Melaka. There is also a dedicated children's pool which the kids did have an enjoyable, short brief time before jumping into a bigger pool. We truly enjoyed our swim more so since it was evening time with no scorching sun to spoil our wet, fun hour. Tilting our heads up, we were blessed to be able to enjoy the beautiful clear blue sky with adorable clouds.We Had a Splashing Time IndeedHope to return soon!Interestingly, there is an outdoor hot tub for you to dip in. You don't get to see this in every hotel though. Nothing beats soaking yourself in the jacuzzi to melt away all your worries and problems, right? If you plan to visit Bayview Hotel Melaka for your staycation, make sure to make good use of the pool to have a splashing time.


If you are looking for a hotel in Melaka that can serve you lip-smacking food, then you really need to book your stay at Bayview Hotel Melaka. Instead of going to a nearby eatery for our dinner, we decided to to dine inside the hotel itself. After reading countless glowing reviews about the scrumptious food being served in Southern Court Chinese Restaurant, my wife suggested that we give it a try. It turned out to be a wise choice for our tummies indeed.Dinner At Southern Court Chinese Restaurant of Bayview Hotel MelakaFor the uninitiated, the Southern Court Chinese Restaurant in Bayview Hotel Melaka serves authentic Szechuan and Cantonese cuisines. That's right! So if you are craving genuine Szechuan and Cantonese dishes in Melaka, you really need to head over to this famous restaurant. It had been a while since we last dined in a restaurant which dishes out oriental food. We were there quite early after our swimming sessions, making us extremely hungry. I am sure this lovely restaurant is included in the top list of online ordering for restaurants in Melaka.Southern Court Chinese Restaurant follows the required SOPNo meal will be complete without coffeeUpon arrival, we were immediately in awe of the restaurant's classic and yet luxurious decorations. The courteous waiter immediately ushered us to our preferred table and even handed each of us a plastic packet to store our mask. All in all we ordered 5 different dishes to savour. I must say that the intricate wood carvings and the whimsical Chinese instrumental music in the Southern Court Chinese Restaurant really set us in the mood for our dinner. Yours truly me loved the sight of the traditional wooden chairs which made me reminisce about the good old days in my late grandmother's house. Shark "fin" soup was our appetizerAs we were one of the earliest patrons in Southern Court Chinese Restaurant, the chef could attend to us first and in no time, our  mouth-watering dinner was served. It pays to be early. 😄 First to land on our dining table was a huge bowl of "Shark Fin Soup". Ok! Do not be alarmed. No sharks were finned and harmed to prepare this delicacy. Instead we were served the so-called artificial (or imitation) shark fin soup as appetizer. I could not tell how close it tasted compared to the real shark fin soup as I have not had any for decades. Still, the scrumptious broth together with the ingredients inside really whetted our appetite.Up next was mixed vegetables with tofu. Though the dish might look simple, I love how flavourful it was together with the thick, savory sauce which really went well with our white rice. Another plate of stir-fried mixed vegetables was next on our list. The combination of long beans, ladies fingers, onions, brinjal and sliced chili was really bursting with flavours in my mouth. I could vividly scent the unmistakable Wok Hei fragrance in the dish which brought back fond memories of home-cooked food by my old folks.The fried chickens were crispy on the outside and succulent on the insideJordan and Jasmine really got excited when they saw the next platter on the table-fried chickens. Obviously these deep-fried chickens were so irresistibly enticing for both of them. I guess no one could fend of the temptation of well-marinated chicken deep-fried to golden crisp perfection right? They were really delectable; Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The moment you sink your teeth into these succulent fried chickens, you could not help but want more! Yes~it will be that insatiable!Chili Crab with mantouLast but not least was the highlight of our dinner at Southern Court Chinese Restaurant. In fact I insisted that we try this cuisine which was highly recommended. Introducing the exquisite Chili Crab with Mantou. Honestly I had never sampled anything quite like this. The luscious chili-coated crab meat together with the distinctive mantou was really rich and scrumptious. OMG! This dish was really lip -smacking! It was so good that I almost ordered another one. I am glad that we did try this signature dish of Chef Sum.Let's enjoy our feast at Southern Court Chinese RestaurantAll in all, we had a feast at this renowned Southern Court Chinese Restaurant. So if you are staying in Bayview Hotel Melaka, I highly recommend that you pay their in-house Chinese restaurant a visit and try their authentic Szechuan and Cantonese dishes. And don't forget the Chili Crab with Mantou. LOL 😁 It is definitely one of the best rated Halal Chinese restaurants in Melaka. I am looking forward to my next visit for another round of dinner.Southern Court Chinese Restaurant at Bayview Hotel MelakaAddress: Jalan Bendahara, Kampung Bukit China, 75100 Melaka.Opening Hours: Lunch (11:30am-2:00pm); Dinner (7:00pm - 10:30pm)Website: bhm.bayviewhotels.comFacebook: www.facebook.com/BayviewHotelMelakaInstagram: www.instagram.com/bayviewhotel_MelakaEmail: bayviewmelaka@bayviewhotels.comTelephone: +6062839888

The main room with the queen bed belonged to my missus and I while another room with 2 twin beds was occupied by Jordan boy and Jasmine girl.

Tanjung Point Residences review-One of the Best Places To Stay In Penang

If you are looking for one of the best places to stay in Penang, then you have to book Tanjung Point Residences for your next holidays. I am still in awe with our beachfront accommodation in Penang which was nothing short of mesmerizing. Tanjung Point Residences boasts one of the most amazing beach views right from your wide and spacious balcony. However that's not all, read on to find out why this serviced apartment is one of the best places to stay in Penang.

Read my Tanjung Point Residences Review to find out why it is one of the best places to stay in Penang

While you are on vacation on an island, you want to be away from the hustle and bustle of the city right? Hence Tanjung Point Residences will be ideal for your relaxing holidays as it is not nestled in the bustling city center. Situated directly next to the sea, you can enjoy the relaxing sea breeze while listening to the waves crashing on the beach. I really appreciate the tranquility and serenity that helped to recharge my tired body and mind. Then again it is still strategically located, meaning that you can get to any tourist attractions easily.

Since we are still in the midst of the pandemic, we needed to adhere to the strict SOP as usual. The management of Tanjung Point Residences has really ensured that the safety of its guests is its number priority. Security guards and staff took our temperatures and made sure that we sanitize our hands before entering the hotel. While we were lining up to check in, physical distancing was practised as well. It is good to know that we can still have peace of mind while enjoying our holidays.

Tanjung Point Residences boasts amazing sea view

OMG...we were in awe of our beachfront stay!

After our registration and check-in, we literally rushed to our 2-bedroom apartment as we could not wait to see what our stay for the next 3 days would look like. Honestly, our expectations were really high as we were amazed by the pictures that we saw on the Internet. Once we pushed open our door, we knew that our staycation in Penang will be an unforgettable one. The apartment was so huge and spacious, making us feel so comfortable and at ease. My wife and kids were extremely ecstatic that they could stay in such an incredible place in Penang!

The rooms in Tanjung Point Residences are so HUGE!

Wifey is waiting for me. 😝

Yes. We are all spellbound by the beautiful seaview

Spacious and comfortable

Enjoying my coffee while admiring the breathtaking sea view

Doing my work

In the master bedroom, the plush, super-comfortable mattress was truly a bliss for both my wife and I. Indeed, we had a good night's sleep during our 3 days 2 nights staycation. The wooden floor finishing plus the lush carpeting really made every step in our apartment so much more enjoyable. Even the drapes were so opulent, adding that unmistakable luxurious and romantic touch for the guests. There were even mesh curtains to give you that added privacy if you still want to pull the curtains apart. There is even a TV in our master bedroom for us to watch TV.

All the mattresses are so comfy and plushy

Both of them are so happy 😁

Apart from the comfy bed and beautiful interior, the master bedroom has its very own en-suite bathroom which is really ritzy. The elaborate floor tiles really complement the ivory white sink. There is even a huge, wide mirror for all your vanity needs. Be it hot or cold, you can shower to your heart's content with the rainfall shower head that will make you feel unbelievably good. OMG! It felt like a paradise even when you are taking a shower. I had a great time in the bathroom for sure. Ha 😀

The bathrooms in Tanjung Point Residences are luxurious

Jordan boy and Jasmine girl enjoying their rainfall shower

Jordan and Jasmine really had a whale of time in their very own huge bedroom as well. Inside, there were 2 equally plush and comfy single mattresses that will make you want to lie down the whole day; Just ask both of them. After jumping on their beds like trampoline (which they shouldn't), both of them happily enjoyed their rapturous shower. Obviously they truly had a great time staying in this beachfront apartment.

You will get the complete set of kitchenette

Electric stove with hood

Microwave and electric kettle

What else do you need?

Enjoying our meals at the dining table

Like I have aforementioned, staying in Tanjung Point Residences really felt like home to us. If you do not feel like leaving this haven, you can stay indoors all day and cook your own meals thanks to the complete set of kitchenette. There is a big electric stove with hood, toaster, microwave, electric kettle, refrigerator, crockery and all the cutlery that you need. All you have to do is to buy a few ingredients and voila you can cook your meals and start enjoying them in this beautiful and comfortable apartment. *hint* we used the toaster and microwave a lot. 😋

Bask in the spacious, comfortable, opulent living area

Obviously wifey and our babies are really happy.

We are truly, madly, deeply in love with the balcony!

We will never forget this amazing experience.

Unlike a hotel, this 2-bedroom apartment of ours at Tanjung Point Residences has a crazy huge separate living area for us to chill in the cozy sofa while watching TV. Yupe! No more being crammed inside one single bedroom like a usual hotel. Hungry for some snacks? Just head over to the dining area to enjoy some quick bites and some coffee (for me). While my wife was preparing breakfast for us, our kids were happily watching cartoons on Astro; Yours truly me was busy doing some work using the blazing fast free complimentary Wi-Fi. In other words, we have so much space to do so many things in this accommodation of ours in Penang.

Tanjung Point Residences boasts an infinity pool right next to the sea

Having a splashing time!

Honestly it felt so calm swimming in this pool

Both of them enjoying the mesmerizing sea view

You will definitely enjoy yourself here

Can we continue to swim?

One of the best swimming pools that we have ever swum in!

Enjoy the sea breeze and indulge in the sound of waves crashing on the beach

One of the highlights of staying in Tanjung Point Residences is its enormous breathtaking infinity pool overlooking the stunning beach filled beautiful clouds. Yes! You can swim while admiring the mesmerizing sea view. What is so awesome about this infinity swimming pool is the fact that it is 1 metre deep, allowing both children and adults to fully enjoy their swim. Both Jordan boy and Jasmine girl really, really loved their swimming sessions. However due to the strict SOP, each person could only swim for a maximum of 1 hour and there could only be 20 swimmers at one time in this gigantic infinity pool. They were sad when the security guard ask them to leave.

Exercise right now to the sea

Time to burn off all the extra calories

Enjoying the view while working out

Stay active even while you are on a vacation

Staying in Penang for 3 days had allowed us to savour a lot of delicious food. Being known as the Pearl of the Orient, Penang is a melting pot for cuisines and delicacies from different cultures and countries. Of course we had so many lip-smacking feasts that expanded our waistlines quite a lot. LOL 😁 Fortunately there is a well-equipped gym in Tanjung Point Residences for us to shed away all those extra calories. It was a pleasure to run on the treadmill while taking in the picturesque scenery. I mean it is not every day that you get to lift those dumbbells right next to the sea, right? You will have the multigym, adjustable benches, wellness balls and yoga mats at your disposal. So clock in some workout before going out to enjoy more glorious food.

Playground for the kids

You can also do your laundry here

Those who plan to stay here for a long period of time will be happy to know that there is a full service laundry to take care of your clothes. Besides there is also a playground for children to have fun besides the huge infinity pool. Those who plan to visit Penang should choose Tanjung Point Residences for you stay or lodging. There are 3 options for you to choose from namely 3-Bedroom Suite, 2-Bedroom Suite and Studio Suite.

Tanjung Point Residences is definitely one of the best places to stay in Penang

We felt really sad that we had to leave this beautiful and amazing accommodation of ours.  Tanjung Point Residences is so good that we really wanted to extend our 3 Days 2 Nights stay. Unfortunately we had to head back to Melaka for work and for the kids to attend school. Equipped with everything that we need, this is by far one of the best places to stay in Penang if you ask me. You will appreciate the ample space, the huge infinity pool and of course the beautiful sea view that will mesmerize you for hours! We are definitely going to stay in Tanjung Point Residences again for our next visit in the future!

Sheraton Fitness-A World Class Gym For You To Stay Active

Another important facility that I really enjoy during my stay in Sheraton PJ Hotel was its amazing in-house gym or better known as Sheraton Fitness. After indulging in so much delicious food at Yue Restaurant, Miyabi Restaurant and Feast Restaurant in the hotel itself, I needed to exercise a little bit. Fortunately there is a fully-equipped gym in the hotel for me to burn some calories before we start our food hunting journey again!

Sheraton Fitness is a fully-equipped world class gym

 It's time to burn some (a lot of) calories

Sheraton Fitness is really a gym that can match any of the full-scale commercial gyms around you. In fact it is better than almost all the gyms that I go. The moment I stepped into this gym I was completely flabbergasted to see how well-equipped it was. This world-class gym is provided by Technogym. There were many treadmills, exercise bikes and cross trainers just to name few at your disposal. So you do not need to be worried if there is not enough exercise equipment to work out.

This Sheraton Fitness is really big, spacious and not to mention really damn clean too! When I was doing my workout, I couldn't help but notice that almost everything in the gym was shiny...meaning that they have been thoroughly cleaned and polished. This really gave me peace of mind knowing that I am exercising in a very hygienic environment. On top of that, it smelled really good in the gym as well~calming and serene. Hence it was really relaxing while I was running on the treadmill while listening to my music.

You will have everything here to keep you active

I am superman!

This multigym is kinda challenging and interesting

Interestingly enough, just like in the outdoor swimming pool nobody was around the gym that morning. I guess those who were staying in this luxurious hotel would rather be in bed rather than sweating right? That's really good as I could ave the gym all to myself (literally). Out of all the gym equipment, my favourite was of course the cutting-edge treadmill. It was the most state-of-the-art treadmill I have even run on in my life with advanced control panel and a huge LCD screen for me cuztomize my exercise. This alone was enough to perk me up and motivate me.

 Stay-dry-Towels are provided

Most importantly stay hydrated

Besides the treadmill, I also had some fun with the robust cross trainer and exercise bike. All the equipment felt really new and well-maintained, making it a fun workout session for anyone. Another excise equipment which really attracted me was the intimidating multigym. If I could use this every day I would become a hulk. LOL 😂 There were also a lot of dumbbells, adjustable benches and wellness balls for you to have a variety of workouts. This gym is indeed full-equipped!

Sheraton Fitness Gym lets you exercise at the "top of the world".

One extra bonus of exercising in Sheraton Fitness is its amazing view. Similar to the rooftop infinity pool, this gym is also located on the 33rd level of Sheraton PJ Hotel. This means you will be getting a beautiful, panoramic view while exercising which can really be therapeutic. That's the privilege of exercising "on cloud nine" right? Forget to bring your bottle of water to re-hydrate yourself? No worries as there is a water dispenser available for free-flow of sky juice. Need a towel to wipe your dripping sweat? The gym has got it covered with the available towels at the entrance. So if you are staying in Sheraton PJ Hotel, make sure you take advantage of this gym. It is open 24 hours~7 days a week!


Rooftop Infinity Pool On The 33rd Level Of Sheraton PJ Hotel

Besides delicious food and a good night's sleep, I believe a great hotel should also have an equally amazing swimming pool. How about a swimming pool on the 33rd floor with breathtaking view and cool, fresh air? That is exactly where you will be having a dip and splashing water when you are staying in Sheraton Petaling Jaya Hotel. So far this rooftop infinity pool is the highest swimming pool I have ever swum in my entire life.

The swimming pool of Sheraton PJ Hotel is on the 33rd Level

Let's have our morning swim

On the second day of our stay, we decided to have a morning swim first instead of enjoying our lip smacking breakfast buffet. When we first arrived, nobody was in or near the swimming pool. Guess everyone was sound asleep or busy digging in the glorious food at the breakfast buffet. Ecstatic, I immediately jumped into the infinity pool and swam for a bit while Jordan and Jasmine were having a splashing good time in the kids pool.

Mommy was always watching over them 😀

Did you guys have fun?

Since it was still early, I was really awestruck by the spectacular view on the 33rd floor while dipping in the infinity pool. Perching on the top of Sheraton PJ Hotel, rest assured that you will be getting a bird's eye view of everything around the hotel. One could see the beautiful city of Petaling Jaya and as far as Kuala Lumpur. Yours truly me really enjoyed the stunning scene with majestic skyscrapers touching the blue skies while the sun rays piercing through the fascinating clouds. At that moment, I felt that time had stood still.

Jordan boy wanted to try swimming in the adult pool

Jasmine girl as well

Over at the kids pool, my 2 little big babies were having a whale of time swimming in the shallow pool. Kids will always love swimming right? Even though they are not really swimming. Ha :D It was really relaxing when we could breathe in the fresh, invigorating air while the gentle breeze caressed our faces. After doing a few laps, I chilled in one of the loungers while taking in the magnificent scenery for one last time. Looking at my children having fun with their mother at the kid's pool was really priceless as well. Guess this is the feeling when you get while having a vacation. 😊

One can enjoy stunning view of the city from the swimming pool

 Breathtaking view of the whole city

The swimming pool is equipped with loungers, chairs and tables for you to chill out

Yours truly me chilling out

I don't mind sitting here all day to enjoy the view

After around half an hour, we cleaned ourselves up before changing into our clothes. After that? Or course we headed to have our scrumptious  breakfast buffet that the hotel has already provided for us. More smoked duck and sausages? All in all we certainly had a great time in the swimming pools on the 33rd floor of Sheraton PJ Hotel. The whole experience was really unforgettable thanks to the view and the fact that no one else was present. It is the highest place we have swum so far. How about you?

Opening Hours: 7:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. daily

Breakfast Buffet at Sheraton PJ That You Cannot Stop Eating

After having a good night's sleep at Sheraton PJ Hotel thanks to its luxurious Signature Sleep Experience, we headed the hotel's restaurant to fill our growling tummies. We were really looking forward to enjoying our breakfast buffet at Feast at Sheraton PJ. Expectations were really high after our scrumptious feast at Yue Restaurant and Miyabi Restaurant respectively. So did our breakfast buffet at Feast @ Sheraton PJ meet our high expectations? Let's find out.

Are you ready for your breakfast buffet at Sheraton PJ?

For the uninitiated, Feast is Sheraton PJ's modern signature restaurant which showcases international flavours at an extensive buffets with a range of visually stunning displays in beautiful colours and textures. Hence at the Feast @ Sheraton PJ you can enjoy breakfast buffet, lunch buffet and dinner buffet or in other words everything! We started our morning with their mouth-watering spread of breakfast buffet of course. When we arrived at the Feast, there were already a lot of other guests busy filling their plates with glorious food. Thankfully the restaurant was really, really big; It was spacious and there were still many vacant seats. Once we have settled down, off we went to grab our empty plates. 😁

Breakfast Buffet at Sheraton PJ is one of the best in KL and PJ

What bread would you like?

Donuts and croissants

Glutten-free cakes~how thoughtful

 Cereals for the kids or maybe you 😄

Bread pudding which was surprisingly good

Since we were having breakfast, you could expect an assortment of breads that you would not even know where to start digging. There were also around 10 jars of spread for you to smack on your breads ranging from jam to honey. I think Feast @ Sheraton PJ was really courteous and thoughtful as they even prepared gluten-free options for those who need it. There were also lots of colourful donuts and different choices of croissants for you to savour. Kids will love the various cereals in jars along with a plethora of dried fruits and nuts. Interestingly the restaurant also provided hot oatmeal and bread pudding which was made from stale bread, milk and egg.

Chinese Fried Rice,  Mee Mamak and Nasi Lemak

How about a bowl of Noodles?

How do you like your eggs?

For those who prefer heavier meals for their breakfast there were other oriental stalls with familiar local cuisines that they would make them happy such as Chinese Fried Rice, Mee Mamak and of course Nasi Lemak. Top them up with onion sambal, tomato chicken, prawn curry and usual condiments for Nasi Lemak. Want to try something else? You can also choose from Steamed Japanese Rice, Miso Soup and Salt-baked Saba Macarel just to name a few. Those who wish to grab a few spoons of noodles can head over to the noodles station. The egg station is a heaven for egg lovers there were just so many different versions of eggs for you to try. Do you want omelette, scrambled egg or poached egg?

Congee with its various condiments

We Asians love dim sum

Enjoy 5 different cheese for your breakfast at Sheraton PJ

Want something lighter for your breakfast? How about Chicken congee or maybe just plain congee. Of course you could spice your porridge up with the available condiments. There were also dim sum and local kuih for those who prefer traditional fix for their breakfast. If you want something crunchy and cheesy at the same time, grab a few cookies and spread them with the 5 different cheeses available. There were Cheddar Cheese, Edam Cheese, Blue Cheese, Emmental Cheese and Camembert Cheese for you to choose from. It was quite an exotic display of cheese if you ask me. After all, it is not like every day you will get to taste 5 different cheese at one go right?

For those who love salads

Health conscious diners could choose to fill up their hungry stomachs with salads and spice things up with the other special condiments that were just beside their leafy greens. Unfortunately I am not really into vegetables. Yours truly me prefer meatier breakfast such as chicken ham, smoked duck slices, smoked salmon and lots of sausages of course. I must say that the smoked duck slices were to die for-every bite was so sinfully delicious, succulent and flavourful. I couldn't get enough of the smoke duck slices which melted in my mouth. Awww....😘

Chicken hams, smoked duck slices and smoke salmons *drooling*

Look at how happy Jasmine girl was

How can get enough of sausages?

How about desserts for breakfast buffet at Sheraton PJ? You will be delighted to know that you can indulge in yoghurt and premium quality ice cream. On top of that, there were also fresh fruits and jelly to sweeten your already awesome breakfast at Sheraton PJ. As for beverages, you can get unlimited cups of Teh Tarik and Nescafe Tarik. Of course you could also craft your own cappuccino of latte with the coffee machine available.

Let's have desserts and coffee now!

Chilled delights-yoghurt and ice cream

 Fruits

Teh Tarik or Nescafe Tarik?

If you are looking for a hotel stay in PJ or KL with fantastic breakfast buffet spread, then you definitely need to consider Sheraton PJ Hotel. At Feast, my family and I really had an unforgettable breakfast that we could not get enough of. It is a shame that we only have one stomach to enjoy the glorious food. I am looking forward to trying Sheraton PJ buffet lunch and buffet dinner as well. Judging by our dining experience at Yue (Cantonese Luncheon), Miyabi (Omakase Dining) and now breakfast buffet at Feast, I am sure their luncheon and dinner will be equally amazing.

Breakfast Buffet at Sheraton PJ offers glorious spread for your family

When my family is happy, it is priceless.

Miyabi Sheraton PJ-Omakase at Its Best

I have always heard how amazing the Omakase is at Miyabi Sheraton Petaling Jaya. My scrumptious luncheon at Yue at Sheraton PJ tells me that this Japanese restaurant will be even better!  After trying their Omakase prepared exclusively by their Japanese chef-Mr. Tetsuya Yanagida, I must admit that this is the best Omakase I have ever savoured in my life! So if you are looking for one of the best Japanese restaurants in PJ, then you really need to head over to Miyabi Sheraton PJ. This upscale Japanese restaurant serves the usual multi-course kaiseki (懐石) such as Sushi, Sashimi and Teppanyaki just to name a few.

Can you feel the zen vibe emanated by the decor at Miyabi Sheraton PJ?

Sushi bar and live cooking station

Alternatively you could choose Omakase dining experience at Miyabi Sheraton PJ. What is Omakase? Simply put, Omakase means "I will leave it to you (the chef)" to decide what Japanese food to cook, prepare and serve. In other words, the chef's creativity and culinary skills will come into play as he prepares the sushi. Hence I was really honoured that Chef Tetsuya Yanagida personally served me with his award-winning Omakase Sushi! It is not like everyday that you will be served fresh Sushi by a Japanese chef right?

Chef Tetsuya Yanagida will be preparing my authentic Omakase

While waiting for my dinner I happily made myself at home in Miyabi Sheraton PJ. For the uninitiated, "Miyabi" means elegance and that is really evident in the opulent and yet cozy decorations of the restaurant. I love the zen vibe that this restaurant exudes with minimalist design complemented by clean lines, natural stones and lots of woods. From the arrangement of the plates and cutlery to the well-folded napkins; Everything in Miyabi looks immaculately divine. For a moment, it feels like you are actually in Japan!

Can't wait to see the chef showcasing his culinary skills

While I was admiring the rich decor, I heard someone calling, "Chris San!" I turned around and there he was, holding my first plate of authentic Japanese cuisine for that night. Chef Tetsuya Yanagida presented my appetizer-Asparagus Goma-ae which was a quick green snack to get me started on my Omakase journey for the evening. The boiled asparagus which was coated with premium sesame sauce was really fresh and crispy. Who would have thought that vegetables could be this appealing to my palate huh! Besides some green goodness, my appetizer also consisted of the mystifying Tatami Iwashi (dried Japanese baby sardines sheet) which I actually had a second look. It was rather interesting to marvel at the intricate mesh of baby sardines intertwining to form a piece of art-like kite. The texture was crunchy and piquant. Dipping it into the sesame sauce and you will get a whole different sensation in your mouth.

My next platter was the exquisite Sashimi consisting of luscious Kanpachi, Toro, Hokkaido hotate and Fuedai. I am flattered to be served by exceptional quality sashimi that were made of amberjack, tuna, scallop and red snapper. The sashimi were unbelievably fresh and savory. Every single bite felt so rich and creamy, bursting with the sashimi's very own original flavour. Honestly speaking, I had ever never tasted sashimi as fresh as the ones in Miyabi thanks to its weekly sashimi shipment. Add a bit of freshly ground wasabi to your sashimi and your taste buds will be dancing in delight! This sashimi platter is highly recommended and it will surely give you that orgasmic ASMR sensation!

It felt so good to have a Japanese chef preparing your Omakase

Japanese Clear Soup

After enjoying my Sashimi, Chef Yanagida prepared a bowl of Japanese Clear Soup to help me get ready for my next Agemono dish. Introducing Avocado Sakura-ebi Kaki-age tempura which is a fusion between Avocado and Sakura baby shrimp. Dipping this battered and deep fried mashed avocado and cherry blossom really gave me that tingling sensation in my mouth. Despite being coated by a layer of batter, I could still taste the unmistakable buttery texture of the rich and nutty avocado. The sakura baby shrimp used in the tempura really added a different layer of savory aftertaste which made this Agemono really unique.

Chef Tetsuya Yanagida then continued to prepare my Yakimono platter while I was admiring him strutting his stuff right before my eyes. The next that I got to delight in was the Grilled Ikejime Barramundi with Kyoto Miso. This grilled big eye tuna belly with sea salt was not only very presentable, but also very titillating. It was well-seasoned and grilled to perfection, with the juice of the fish still masterfully locked inside the dainty tuna fillet. I wouldn't mind having a few more servings.

The highlight of my Omakase dining at Miyabi Sheraton PJ has got to be this showstopper-Nigiri assortment. Behold my amazing Nigiri Sushi dishes with slices of fresh Kanpachi (Amberjack), Big eye tuna belly, Chutoro tuna belly, sweet Amaebi (prawn) and Mizu-dako (Octopus). When Chef Yanagida presented my Nigiri Sushi to me, I laid it on the table and was actually awestruck by what I would be indulging in. It was not like every day I could savour such sumptuously divine Nigiri Sushi right? Every grain of the vinegary pearl rice really complemented the freshness and sweet aroma of the sashimi. They were really creamy, rich and smooth! Add some wasabi and soy sauce and you would get a whole different experience in your mouth. Goodness!

Which one of these Nigiri Sushi will you try first?

Just when I thought that my Nigiri platter was (supposedly) the last of my luxurious main course for the day, the affectionate Chef Yanagida surprised me with yet another sushi! He handed a Chopped bluefin tuna belly with leek hand roll sushi to a gleeful me *Yay!*. Well! One can never get enough of sinfully tempting authentic Japanese food right? Now I know why sushi lovers swear by bluefin tuna and vinegar pearl rice. I felt like a child again being able to eat this hand roll sushi.

Dessert: Chitose Strawberry Cake & Fruit

Every great gastronomical journey will have an equally awesome ending. The fitting unforgettable epilogue of my breathtaking Omakase dining experience in Miyabi Sheraton PJ was the heavenly  Chitose Strawberry cake and fruits. This plate of nectarious dessert really put an icing on the already incredible omakase dining experience at Miyabi Sheraton PJ! Out of the sudden, Chef Yanagi appeared right before me and gave me a few Sushi Gummy Lollipops for my children. He knew that my kids could not tag along and hence wanted me to pass these candies to my them. Top notch hospitality and unbelievable courtesy from this Japanese chef! Another brownie point for sure.

Chef Tetsuya Yanagida was very warm, funny and generous!

I had hot green tea and Cappuccino but nothing beats...

While I was enjoying my Omakase Sushi, I also ordered a bottle of artisanal Miyabi sake (rice wine). Served hot, every sip of this Miyabi sake was alluring. I particularly loved its sweet, refreshing scent with a hint of bitterness which really complemented its crisp aftertaste. An attentive waiter was constantly helping me to reheat my sake so that it would always be at the right temperature when I wanted my next sip. Hence, I highly recommend drinking sake while you are enjoying your Omakase sushi in Miyabi Sheraton PJ. It will really elevate your whole dining experience while you bask in its ethereal ambiance. Perhaps the sake made me tipsy a little bit. 😋

I think I am a bit tipsy now...

Sake really made all my sushi taste better!

All in all my Omakase dining in Miyabi Sheraton PJ was truly a feast fit for a King and an experience that I would never ever forget. Again I want to thank the meticulous Chef Tetsuya Yanagida for preparing such astonishing Omakase sushi for me. It was a luxurious treat indeed and it was worth every single dime. If you are looking for one of the best Omakase Sushi dining experiences in PJ, then you really need to head over to Miyabi Sheraton PJ.

Yue at Sheraton Petaling Jaya-Award-Winning Chinese Restaurant

Besides offering amazing experience in terms of accommodation, Sheraton Petaling Jaya also has a few restaurants with menus that will get foodies jumping for joy. Introducing Yue @ Sheraton Petaling Jaya which is an award-winning Chinese restaurant specializing in Cantonese cuisines. Being a food lover myself, I am thrilled to be able to savour such delectable dishes in Yue. If you are looking for one of the best Chinese restaurants in PJ to satiate your palate, then Yue @ Sheraton PJ is the one for you.

Welcome to Yue at Sheraton Petaling Jaya

So after checking in at our luxurious Executive Deluxe King room, we headed to Yue Chinese Restaurant to have our lunch. We were ushered into a huge special private dining room to enjoy our luncheon. Everything in the restaurant has been immaculately planned right from the elegant oriental decorations to the beautiful city views. There is an LCD TV if you want to watch something or probably for your karaoke session. The walls of this private dining room have been well sound-proofed for you to enjoy your chic-chatting or boisterous peals of laughter.

After hours of travelling, we are glad to be greeted by the warm and friendly waiter who handed us the menu. Honestly there were so many cuisines to choose from at Yue Sheraton Petaling Jaya. After much consideration and flipping of pages, we eventually chose Yue's 5-course Cherry Blossom Set Menu. We cheerfully basked in the cozy zen ambiance of the restaurant. The whole atmosphere was so pleasant thanks to its traditional music playing at the back which truly complemented the rich Chinese decorations in our dining room.

Chef's Special double boiled Chinese herbal soup served in a teapot!

The first cuisine from our to be served was the highly rated Chef's Special double boiled Chinese herbal soup served in a teapot! We were delighted to find a huge luscious abalone together with tender black chicken and aromatic cordyceps flower. The broth was so thick and fragrant, making it very flavourful and scrumptious. My wife and daughter really enjoyed this exquisite nourishing dish that really whetted their appetite. This is one of the must-try cuisine in Yue at Sheraton Petaling Jaya. I am glad that I ordered two sets of it.

Imperial Smoked Duck wrapped in egg pancake and Peking Sauce

Our next dish was the delightful Imperial Smoked Duck wrapped in egg pancake and Peking Sauce! The smoked duck was so delicate and gratifying that it will melt in your mouth the moment you have a bite. The well seasoned duck meat together with the thin and tasty egg pancake really tantalized my taste buds. Top it with the distinctive Peking sauce and your mouth will be bursting with flavour that you will not forget to quite a long time! I wish I could have more!

Baked cod fish topped with wasabi and chef's special sauce

If you are someone who prefer seafood, then you will relish the baked cod fish topped with wasabi and chef's special sauce. The baked cod fish was cooked to perfection. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I could have sworn that the meat of cod fish was unbelievably creamy and smooth in my gaping mouth. The chef's special sauce made all the difference with a hint of zest and tempting zing. Of course we enjoyed the mushrooms and snappy asparagus as well.

Fried rice with egg white and crispy scallops

The fried rice is certainly "more than meets the eye"

As the saying goes no Chinese banquet is complete without the presence of rice right? Our next dish was fried rice with egg white and crispy scallops. Every grain of the rice was mellow and fragrant the way it should be. One could immediately taste the unmistakable "wok hey" in the fried rice. The egg white and crispy scallops elevated the flavour of rice and gave the dish more texture. Glad we had rice to eat together with our other dishes.

Chilled fresh mango cream with milk and sago

Last but not least, our desserts were served to round of our luncheon. Nothing beat having chilled fresh mango cream with milk and sago as your desserts. We also added another bowl of Matcha Ice Cream for ourselves to enjoy. Aww...these desserts were really luscious, heavenly and gratifying to say the least! We particularly loved how fresh and creamy our desserts were. OMG~we wish we could have a few more servings of these nectarous desserts.

All in all we really had a pleasant and fulfilling feast at Yue. All the food served felt like Chinese New Year menus to me. It was a satisfying gastronomical journey for my family and I. Our tummies were happily filled and our moods were of course brightened for the whole day. If you are in PJ or KL, looking for great Chinese restaurants to dine in, then I highly recommend this Yue at Sheraton Petaling Jaya. You will definitely love the menus available at your disposal or you can choose the Cheery Blossom Menu that we had opted. Our family really indulged ourselves at Yue Sheraton PJ for sure!

Sheraton Petaling Jaya Hotel Review-One Of The Best In KL

If you are looking for one of the best hotels to stay in Kuala Lumpur (KL) or near the vicinity of KL, then the Sheraton Petaling Jaya (PJ) Hotel should be in your list. I have always believed that a wonderful accommodation is very important as it completes the whole experience of a vacation. Hence, Sheraton Petaling Jaya Hotel is my preferred choice of hotel for my staycation in KL. The fact that my family was truly delighted with our stay shows that this hotel has really exceeded our expectations in many ways.

Sheraton PJ is a luxurious 5-star Hotel that will take your breath away

Some of the beautiful decorations in Sheraton PJ

In terms of location, Sheraton Petaling Jaya Hotel sits directly next to the Federal Highway which links Petaling Jaya to Kuala Lumpur. Since it is strategically situated just a stone's throw away (20 minutes) from the city centre, you will appreciate the convenience minus the dreaded traffic jam. In other words, this hotel allows you to access various parts of the city without being caught in the bumper-to-bumper crawl. So you will be away from the annoying honking and noises that are synonymous with the city centre.

 Colours, textures & lighting make Sheraton PJ look really ritzy and luxurious

For the uninitiated, Sheraton Petaling Jaya Hotel is part of Marriott International's most global brand. Sheraton Petaling Jaya will not only elevate the landscape of hospitality in PJ area but also in the greater regions of Kuala Lumpur. This luxurious 5-star hotel features 253 contemporary rooms and suites that will surely blow your mind away. Honestly speaking, we did not want to leave the hotel when it was time to check out. Read on to find out why Sheraton PJ is one the best hotels in KL that you should be staying.

The decorations in Sheraton PJ are opulent and grand

You will be seeing a lot of chandeliers.

Upon our arrival at the doorsteps of Sheraton Petaling Jaya, the friendly potter helped us with our luggage and directed us to the concierge. The moment we stepped into the hotel we already know that we would be in for a lavish stay! I believed the hotel was designed to combine both contemporary and classy traditional decorations. Everything in the hotel looked and felt amazingly opulent and grand. Not only was the decorations look palatial, but even the concierges were also really warm and proactive. While we were waiting to check in, they served us chilled orange juice. This gesture of theirs just won them a lot of brownie points! 😁

This is what a bedroom looks like in Sheraton PJ Hotel

After getting our room key cards, we gleefully rushed to our Deluxe King room. The kids could be seen happily dragging along their own luggage, knowing that we would be in for an awesome time. We pushed open our door and were greeted by the splendid decorations inside. Everything really looked ritzy, just as it did in the concierge lounge. We quickly unpacked and started to bask in the unmistakable pampering ambiance that made us feel so comfortable and at ease. I must admit that Sheraton has gone the extra mile to make sure that your stay will be pleasurable and soothing at the same time.

Yes! The bathroom window has a retractable blinder to let you see in and out

Both Jordan and Jasmine were more excited to take their bath. Not that I could blame them. Both of them we really eager to relish in the latest premium Le Grand Bain bath amenities that were created especially for those who are residing in Sheraton hotels! Both of them were happily lavishing themselves with lush shampoo, body wash, and bath bars. Well, it is not every day that you get to dip in a posh bathtub that let you watch TV at the same time right? I really love the spacious bathroom with a separate bathtub and shower. Yupe! That's how big the bathroom is. There was even a magnifying mirror with LED right that ladies will appreciate for sure.

The bathroom in Sheraton PJ Hotel is a work of art

It feels so romantic to take a bath while looking outside 😁

 There is a separate shower and bathtub

Even the toilet can be an art gallery 😋

Once we were done taking our bath, we straight away "dived into" our enormous bed. Nothing beats the feeling of lying on a huge, snuggly bed that could lull you to sleep immediately. The Sheraton Signature Sleep ExperienceⓇ let us indulge in a plush mattress, crisp linens, a cozy duvet, and countless cushy pillows that made us not want to wake up! It was so gratifying and invigorating to be waking up from this mattress! I must concede that everything in the bedroom felt way better than my very own bedroom.

 Both Jordan boy and Jasmine girl were obviously had a great bath time!

Yours truly me could not resist the fun as well. 😘

The interior designers had really done a meticulous job, ensuring that every single bedroom in Sheraton PJ is nothing short of breathtaking! From the relaxing mattress to the comfy armchair sofa; Everything you need is in this bedroom! There is even a workstation comprising a big wooden table for those who have to get their job done before the next meeting. You will get a mini fridge stuffed with all those desirable beverages ranging from carbonated drinks to alcoholic treats that will get you tipsy in the comfort of your own room. Yay! 😋

What's in the fridge of the Sheraton PJ Hotel room?

 So what do you want to drink? Milo, Pepsi, Heineken, or Tiger?

Aww...I love reading the newspaper on this armchair sofa

Need to get work done?

Honestly speaking, the bedroom in Sheraton Petaling Jaya Hotel is one of the best my family and I have ever enjoyed over the years.

The Nomad Serviced Residences Bangsar Staycation Review

Wouldn't it be wonderful to be awakened by the melodious chirping of the birds? Wouldn't it be nice to feel the gentle breeze caressing your face when you stepped out onto the balcony in the morning? That was exactly what I felt when my family and I stayed at The Nomad Serviced Residences Bangsar last week. Nestled in the heart of the affluent Bangsar, our staycation was nothing short of breathtaking to say the least. Honestly I would say it exceeded our initial expectations. Read on to find out more.

While waiting to check in

One of the first things that I want to highlight about The Nomad Serviced Residences Bangsar is the fact that it is located strategically near the city center such as the famous MidValley Megamall. Despite the close proximity, it is actually away from the hustle and bustle of the traffic and noises. Hence I really appreciate the morning tranquility and of course the fresh invigorating air that perked up my day. Two thumbs up. 👍

Welcome to our Premier 2 Bedroom Suite

The moment we arrived at our seemingly secluded destination, we knew that this was the ideal staycation for us to relax and recharge. After being cleared by the security, we could easily find a parking lot and headed towards the lobby to check in. Warmly, we were greeted by the extremely helpful receptionist who made us feel at ease. She meticulously explained everything that we needed to know. This is really what we call customer service at its best. Yours truly me particularly loved the ambiance at the lobby-the marble finish and classy decor-everything made me feel so good. I'm sure the suite that we had booked would be even better, right?

The master bedroom

After we had checked in, the potter led us to our Premier 2 Bedroom Suite. Once we pushed the door open, I must say that all of us were utterly awestruck by heavenly lodging. Everything in our Premier 2-Bedroom Suite suite felt so luxurious and the ample space really made me feel like I was right at home. My wife and two rambunctious kiddos were really excited that we got to stay in this incredible serviced residences. For a moment, we really thought that we were staying in a 5-star presidential hotel room.

The king-size bed is really, really huge 😄

In the master bedroom, the plush, ultra-comfortable king-size mattress was truly a joy for me and my wife 😍 *a~hem*. We really had a good night's sleep. The wooden floor finishing and the opulent drapes really ignited that pleasant sensations in us. In some ways, it felt romantic to be lying in the bed with my wife. Ha 😘 Apart from that what I really love about The Nomad Serviced Residences Bangsar is their unbelievable en-suite bathroom which is really, really grandiose. The granite finishing oozes so much class and luxury; The huge pure white sink adds to the splendor of the whole bathroom and the magnifying mirror with lights is my wife's favourite. I mean we can actually judge how good a place is based on the bathroom, no?

Spacious room to move around

I really, really love the bathroom

Makes me wanna stay inside and just stop and stare 😜

 It is shower time

 There is a magnifying mirror with lights

Obviously my wife is loving the special mirror 😙

The next bedroom was equally good for Jordan boy and Jasmine girl. Fitted with 2 single beds and an exact replica of the en-suite bathroom in the master bedroom, our two little ones really enjoyed themselves while taking turns to have their blissful shower. They also had a few jumps on their very own individual delightful mattress. Indeed they felt right at home.

The second bedroom with two single beds for the kids

Speaking about home, all the suites at this marvelous serviced residences are fully equipped with complete set of kitchenette. In other words you can cook and enjoy your meals with your loved ones right in the comfort of your stay. You will get an electric stove with hood, microwave, toaster, water boiler, refrigerator, crockery and cutlery for you to feel right at home. I am impressed as my family does not own any microwave 😋 so if you don't feel like going out to have your meals, you can just grab a few ingredients and cook till your heart's content.

Cold storage

My family and I felt so at ease staying in the Nomad Bangsar as it has a spacious separate living area for us to enjoy watching TV instead of being crammed in a single room (think hotel). The dining area is also another added luxury as we got to enjoy our meals after we had prepared them. I mean basically we had a lot of space for us to do so much. While my wife was preparing breakfast for us, my kids were enjoying cartoons and I was busy working on my laptop using the complimentary Wi-Fi. You see this is something that we could hardly do in the usual hotels. Don't you agree that staying in such a divine accommodation is truly gratifying?

Love the spacious living area

The dining area is not bad too

Waiting for our scrumptious breakfast to be served

That's not all folks. My wife and the kids also loved the place thanks to the facilities available especially the huge swimming pool. Trust me...it is really enormous, even bigger than a lot of rooftop hotel swimming pools. There is also a huge kid swimming pool which is just about the right depth (not too deep and not too shallow), hence our Jordan boy and Jasmine girl really had a whale of a time splashing and swimming walking...so much so that we had to drag them out of the water. LOL 😁 Ouh yeah~there are also BBQ pits by the pool which we didn't have the opportunity to use (which is a pity).

 So where are we going?

 No joke...the swimming pool is really HUGE!

At the kid swimming pool: You jump~I jump 😂

 We had a blast in the swimming pools

 Her smile says it all 😄

 Me chilling out

 There is a huge area for you and your family to relax and enjoy food

BBQ pit

So what did I do after stuffing all the scrumptious food that my wife had dished out? Exercise of course. It always feels good to stay in an accommodation which provides GYM equipment such as treadmills and bikes. Ouh~I also appreciate the dumbbells for me to do some weight exercise. On the other hand, for those who change your attire quite frequently and in need of a place to wash them, you are in luck! There is a full service laundry to help you take care of your clothes. See~you will really feel at home over here. No wonder a lot of customers will return to enjoy another serene stay at this awesome getaway which I know my family and I will definitely return.

Don't stop~keep on running

Hiyeak~time to shed those extra kilos

Me waiting for my soiled clothes to be washed

All in all our staycation here was really, really amazing. We wish we could have extended our stay in this fascinating lodging, equipped with virtually everything that we need. If you are looking for one of the best places for your holidays stay, then I will highly recommend this serviced residences, especially to those with families as you will really appreciate the extended space available at your disposal. Couples and newlyweds will love the romantic feel in the rooms as well. 😜 I must say that The Nomad Serviced Residences Bangsar is where luxury meets affordability. Until we meet again. 😀

There will be 2 options available: A phone clamp that comes with a magnet at the back or a round magnet with an adhesive surface. Both options allow you to easily snap your smartphone on and off the DJI OM 4 gimbal. Clearly, when you have magnets at the back of your smartphone you will have more mounting options available.

The gimbal can automatically detect the subject and track it

DJI OM 4 comes with the identical 3-axis stabilization the its predecessor employs. The gimbal can easily respond to our physical movements and adjusts in real time at a rate of 120 degrees per second. In other words you can shoot buttery smooth, jitter-free videos no matter how much you are moving. Apart from that the sensor of this latest gimbal from DJI can also detect when you are shooting low-angle shots and it will reposition accordingly.

Easily bring your gimbal anywhere you go

Shoot your videos easily using the joystick

The company claims that DJI OM 4 is now equipped with stronger motor to allow it to support bigger and heavier smartphones. Even if you fit an external lens to your smartphone, it can still withstand the added weight and perform flawlessly to let you shoot beautiful and smooth videos. Obviously, DJI is expecting smartphones to become bigger and heavier huh.

Watch: How To Use DJI OM 4 Smartphone Gimbal

You will definitely love DJI OM 4 gimbal as it allows you to control it via its joystick.
