🎢 Clouds, Coasters & Cocoa: Our 3D2N Genting Highlands Short Escap ☁️✨
It started with a WhatsApp message:
“Wanna escape to the clouds this weekend?”
Three words later — “Book it, babe.” — and our spontaneous 3D2N Genting Highlands adventure was set in motion.
🗓 Day 1: Into the Clouds
We left KL behind with a car full of snacks, a playlist called “Mountain Mood,” and the kind of excitement only an unplanned trip can give. The winding road up the Titiwangsa mountains felt like a slow dance with the mist — we even pulled over for photos when the fog kissed the treetops just right.
By noon, we checked into Resorts World Genting. Our room at Crockfords Hotel was sleek, luxurious, and had the best view of the rolling fog — like staying inside a cloud.
After lunch at The Laughing Fish by Harry Ramsden, we explored SkyAvenue Mall, a shopping paradise suspended in the clouds. With over 100 stores, indoor gardens, and even an LED sky ceiling, it was hard not to get lost — but in a good way.
Evening came, and so did the cold. We bundled up and headed to Genting SkyWorlds Theme Park. Though the real rides waited for Day 2, we soaked in the glowing lights, the magical atmosphere, and yes — the hot chocolate from Jom Makan Street Food that warmed our hands and hearts.
🗓 Day 2: Thrills, Chills & Chocolate Hills
Theme park day! We woke up early, dressed in our comfiest hoodies, and braved the chilly morning for a full day at SkyWorlds. From the adrenaline rush on Independence Day: Defiance to floating through the dreamy world of Ice Age, it was laughter, screams, and repeat.
Midday, we found a cozy hideout at Madame Waffle and ordered matcha waffles with soft serve — because calories don’t count on vacation.
After an afternoon of rollercoasters and cinematic worlds, we rewarded ourselves with a trip to The Chocolatier. Rows of handcrafted truffles, cocoa-dusted almonds, and melt-in-your-mouth bars — it felt like stepping into Willy Wonka’s quieter, more elegant cousin’s house.
Night fell, and we wrapped the day with a magical ride on the Awana SkyWay Cable Car. Floating above the rainforest, lights twinkling below, we didn’t talk much — just held hands and soaked in the silence.
🗓 Day 3: Slow Mornings & Sweet Goodbyes
We let ourselves sleep in — rare, but necessary. Breakfast was a slow affair at High Line Rooftop Market, with mountain views and fresh coffee. After one last stroll through SkyAvenue (yes, we bought matching beanies), it was time to check out.
Driving downhill was bittersweet. Genting had given us laughter, foggy kisses, heart-racing drops, and chocolate-filled memories.
📌 Genting Highlands isn’t just a weekend getaway — it’s a little world above the world.
Cooler air, warmer hearts, and a lot more magic than we expected.
Until next time, Cloud City. ☁️💙
