Reviewing The Cozy Corner Homestay in Brinchang, Cameron Highlands
For my family's 3-day, 2-night getaway to Cameron Highlands, I selected a comfortable homestay nestled in Brinchang, specifically at Emerald Avenue, conveniently close to Cameron Centrum. The rate for this accommodation was RM250 per night, and I booked it directly with the owner. This unit is situated on the 4th floor and boasts three bedrooms, each equipped with its own private bathroom.
Accessing the homestay was straightforward: I simply retrieved the keys from a designated mailbox. After securing the keys, my family and I headed straight for the elevator. The apartment building features two lifts, and because occupancy was relatively low during our stay, waiting time for the elevator was minimal.
Spacious Corner Unit Layout
The three-bedroom, three-bathroom apartment is quite spacious, occupying a corner position in the building. Upon entering, there is a generous living room furnished with a sofa and a TV console. To the right of the entrance, a dining table comfortably seats eight people, accompanied by a small cabinet. The left side is dedicated to a reasonably sized kitchen area, featuring a sink and a large refrigerator. Beside the fridge, a cabinet houses a gas stove for cooking.
Comfortable Sleeping Quarters
The master bedroom is situated on the right side and offers excellent views as it is a corner room, overlooking two directions. This room contains one queen bed and one single bed. Its attached bathroom is notably larger compared to those in the second and third bedrooms. The second bedroom, to the left, houses two queen beds, and its attached bathroom is smaller than the master's. The third bedroom is centrally located, containing one queen bed and one single bed, with a bathroom size similar to the second bedroom's. All three bathrooms are fully equipped with a sink, toilet, and shower, and importantly, they all include water heaters.
Stunning Balcony Views
A standout feature of this homestay is the breathtaking view from the balcony. The balcony itself is quite spacious, fitted with a small square table and two chairs, perfect for relaxing while soaking in the scenery. The view overlooks Brinchang town and the adjacent Cactus Valley.
Amenities and Connectivity
The homestay provides essential amenities, including cooking facilities, an iron, and an ironing board. Necessary kitchenware such as a rice cooker and electric kettle are also provided. Entertainment is covered by a 32-inch TV with ASTRO Njoi channels. Free high-speed WiFi is available: 88mbps download and 58mbps upload. Mobile connectivity was also strong; Tune Talk registered 397mbps, and CelcomDigi provided 303mbps. Parking is available within the apartment complex's designated area. If you bring more than one vehicle, extra cars can be parked in the visitor parking lot next to the building. Please note that the homestay does not supply bath towels or toiletries.
Overall, the homestay is beautiful, clean, and very comfortable, easily accommodating up to 10 adults. I particularly loved the gorgeous view from the balcony. Another positive aspect was the low density of residents, as evidenced by the many empty parking spots—only a few cars were visible. This contributed to quick lift access. I must add that my visit was not during a peak weekend or school holiday, so the atmosphere might differ during busy times.
Prime Location
The location in Brinchang is excellent, situated right next to Centrum Mall and the Centrum Night Market, as well as Cactus Valley. The Kea Farm Market is about 4 km away, and Lavender Garden is 9 km distant. Cameron Valley Tea is only about 10 km away. Tanah Rata is a mere 5 km from the unit. If I return to Cameron Highlands, I will definitely choose to stay here again.
