The Kabin is a unique space where the rooms are built in a container-type lodging unit and it is located in Jeram, Kuala Selangor.

If you and your friends are looking for a place that is good for group trips, this place would be it.

My friends and I have been talking about a group trip for the longest time, and when we came across this place, it looked perfect.

Not only did the place look beautiful, but we were all definitely drawn to the facilities there as well, as they have a swimming pool, futsal court, games room, kayaks, bicycles and also, BBQ pits !

The prices for the place ranges from RM290 for two people, to RM490 for six people, pretty affordable!

The Kabin is only a 50 minute drive away from Kuala Lumpur, making it a great for a two day one night trip.

You'll see greenery's everywhere along the way, and it is just so calming.

Once we've arrived, we were all in awe of how beautiful the place looked.

Containers with amazing graffitis on each one, with beautiful trees surrounding the whole place, how amazing is that?

We booked in total of four rooms, two rooms were for four people each, and another two rooms for six people each.

The rooms are each called, Singapore, Sharjah, Felixstowe, and Hamburg.

Felixstowe & Hamburg are both rooms for six people, and they looked about the same.

There is a private balcony for both rooms, two sets of bunk beds, and also a queen size bed.

The outsides of Sharjah & Singapore

Sharjah and Singapore are the rooms for four people, but, i did not take any photos of them, as they also looked pretty similar to Felixstowe and Hamburg. They both have a set of bunk beds, and also a queen size bed.

Greenery's around the units.

Hammocks under this huge tree, a great place to unwind and enjoy nature.

The swimming pool.

There is a cafe in there as well. They operate from 7am in the morning to 9pm at night.

We had our dinner there and didn't have the best experience, as they were lacking of kitchen staffs and the food took too long to arrive. The food wasn't that great as well, so I'd suggest to drive out and have your meals, as there are many seafood restaurants in Kuala Selangor!

Night views of the pool.

A beautiful map of the world that is lighted up in the games room.

The games room is a great place for everyone to hangout, as there are chairs and tables everywhere around it. The closing time was supposed to be at 12am, but they kindly allowed us to hang around until 2am.

Overall, this place is beautiful and great for group trips, we really did have a blast there, but there are also some things that really needs to be improved. The staffs from the lobby were not that friendly, and as said on the above, the cafe's food could've been better. The rooms were all clean, but it also looked a little old. Two more things to keep in mind, the first would be to bring your mosquito repellent as you will be surrounded by nature and there are LOADS there and secondly, for the rooms named Sharjah and Singapore, beware of frogs jumping in your rooms as there is a huge gap underneath the door.

I hope you enjoyed my post on this place, will write again very soon!

Love,

Cambodia was one of the greatest places I've ever been to.

I was definitely amazed by how Siem Reap was, never expected it to be so beautiful and lively, especially the temples. I never expected anything from it and it had completely blown me away.

It was fantastic.

I've always wanted to visit the country, my cousin and I were checking tickets on AirAsiaGo a few months ago and it was pretty cheap. So we just booked it, and damn, who would've thought i'd actually enjoy it that much.

Even though most of the places in Cambodia used USD as their currency, the things there aren't costly.

I think, for 5 days and 4 nights, including the flights and hotel, we only spent less than RM1,500.

Which was a really really good deal!

Before i continue rambling on, here are some photos of all the interesting things I've seen in Cambodia.

Yup, it is gonna be a looooooong post !

1. Temples

Angkor Wat is so well-known in Siem Reap, so we obviously couldn't miss checking it out!

We decided to head to the temples on the second day and bought a day pass ticket for 20$.

The one day pass doesn't only bring you to Angkor Wat, but many other temples as well !

A tip for all the people who are buying tickets for the temples : U have to be present to get your own ticket, as they have to take a photo of you and print it on the day pass!

We headed out to Angkor Wat around 5:30 am on that day to catch the sunrise!

To watch the sunrise, there are two lakes , one on the left and the other on the right .

People usually just sit on either one of the lakes to watch the sunrise, as it reflects the temple.

P/S: Remember to wear proper shoes as there is ALOT of walking to do and remember to dress appropriately!

Apparently , this used to be the library!

The insides of Angkor Wat

Blessings

Angkor Wat was soo beautiful and unique, it was definitely worth the visit . Pictures can never do this place justice .

Next , we headed to Bayon Temple , Angkor Thom.

Another temple reflecting the lake .

It was beautiful .

After that , we headed to Ta Phrom.

Apparently the movie " Tomb Raider " was filmed here !

This is also one of my favourites. Everything in this temple was so beautiful.

The temples were surrounded by huge trees like this.

Nature at its fucking best.

2. Pub Street

Pub street is probably one of the most happening places in Cambodia.

Everything could be found here !

We ate, partied and shopped here every single day we were there

SHOPPING HERE WAS THE BEST !

We came here when we touched down to look for some food .

Pub street in the afternoon wasn't as great as its night life.

But still, was gooooooood.

We had our lunch here that day.

Probably the most overpriced Khmer curry ever. Food wasnt that great either.

We learned our lesson! hahahaha!

This was for 2 and it cost my sister and I 18 dollars lol what a rip off.

We learned our lesson and headed to another restaurant/bar for the next few days, called Charlies.

Their Baguette there was the best damn thing.

Their Pad Thai there was also fantastic and only cost 5$ or less !!

Definitely recommended.

Baguette with sausage,bacon, caramelised onions and mustard Mayo.

We also stopped by an ice cream shop called the Blue Pumpkin!

The interior of the whole shop was pretty cool.

The top floor had a long stretch of couches, which was sooo good after a whole day of walking !

( picture stolen from google because i was too tired to take more photos that day lol)

Damn right it was gooooodd!

But dont try their coconut shake tho... It wasnt that great. I wished it was . But their ice creams were good!

The BEST restaurant with traditional food that we've tried had to be Khmer Kitchen restaurant, also in Pub street.

Their Khmer Curry there was fantastic , so were the other dishes.

If im not mistaken, there were a few branches of the same shop in Pub street.

We went to two different ones!

( again, taken the photo from google because most of the times i'm useless when it comes to taking photos)

Moving on to Pub Street at night.

It was LIT AS FUCKKKKK.

Plenty of bars, plenty of cheap drinks.

Beers as low as 50 cents , liquor and cocktails as cheap as 2 dollars.. I mean...

I'm obviously not a huge drinker myself, but damn, it was cheap and good !

We went to three bars overall.

One of them is highly recommended by my friends who had been there before.

It was called "Angkor What?"

I didn't find that bar that great, maybe i had too high of an expectation when i got there.

It's a nice place to chill if you want a chilled night out !

The second place we spent our night at was called "Temple"

This place was cool, it has three floors!

The first floor being a club, second being a bar with louder music, and third floor also a bar filled with bean bags and live music.

We experienced all three floors and it was all really really fun!

( again not my photos )

Lastly, you HAVE to try out their happy pizza just for experience !! If you dont know what it is, google it !

3. Happy Ranch Farm

Happy Ranch Farm is a horse ranch where you could go horse riding !

My friend, Raisa, recommended me this place and she said that this was the best part of her trip in Cambodia, so, we had to go.

The Horse ranch there was beautiful and super clean!

The package that we took, took us along the paddy fields and also the villages.

It was a humble experience to see how the people are living there, and a good reminder of how we should always count our blessings.

Our package was 40+USD for a two hour trail ride.

Yes, it was pricey, but it was worth it and we saved up the whole trip just to go for this !

Going on a ride with something so magical and a beautiful scenery ? Why not!

If you can , go during the sunset ! We had to go early in the morning because it kept on raining in the evening.

Tip: Please wear stretchable pants or you'll end up tearing your pants while going up on the horse . On the way there, there's no way that you could find anything to buy.. so... yeah. hahahaha.
