Weekend Getaway

Celyn Resort Kinabalu was our destination last Saturday for our weekend getaway. It's at Kg. Samuruh, Ranau and takes 10 minutes drive from the main road to the resort....about 500 meters of a smooth and hilly aspalth road and the rest is a bit rugged up to the resort. I find this place is a great place to retreat from my busy daily life even if its just for a day....kunun LOL...fresh air....surrounded by the greens and most of all a change of weather....relaxing betul!

We took a room on the Kinabalu Wing Chalet which is facing the majestic Mount Kinabalu(unfortunately it was covered with clouds most of the time) and took the upper floor corner which gave us the advantage of a better view of valley below as well as the rest of the surrounding....what a breathtaking view. Gabe was having a time of his life but we've to be on alert most of the time since we're on the top of a cliff and he is superactive and too adventerous at times...so we don't want any Superman or Ultraman or Ben10 drama hahaha.

Having said all the beautiful and perfect scene, I'm gonna touch on the tiny mini faults; Shortage of water, but, don't worry they provide a huge pail for you to store water hahaha and we experienced twice power failure which took about few hours to restore(once during the night and in the morning) BUT it didn't spoil our 'holiday' no ain't complaining....just 'relating' *wink*
