Escape to Paradise: Stunning 3BR Sky House in Tangerang, Indonesia!
Escape to Paradise: Tangerang's Sky-High Secret - A Messy, Honest Review!
Okay, buckle up, because I just got back from a whirlwind trip to Tangerang, Indonesia, and I'm still unpacking (both my suitcase and my brain). I stayed at this place: Escape to Paradise: Stunning 3BR Sky House. And let me just say, stunning is a good start, but… well, let's dive in, shall we? Forget the perfectly polished brochure; I'm here to give you the real deal.
Accessibility – It's a Mixed Bag, Folks.
Right off the bat, this isn't going to be the place for EVERYONE. I'm not a wheelchair user, but I did check for accessibility. The website mentions "facilities for disabled guests," which is vague. Elevators? Yes! That's a huge plus. But details about ramps, bathroom accessibility, etc.? Murky. So, call and clarify if accessibility is a must. It's not the easiest to sort out this type of information from the get-go.
Let's Get Pampered! (Or At Least Try To)
Alright, here's where it gets interesting. The idea of the spa is fantastic, right? Spa, Sauna, Steamroom, Massage, Body Scrub, Body Wrap? Yes, PLEASE! However… and this is a big HOWEVER… I found some of the details less than clear. The website mentions a "spa/sauna" but doesn't specify what treatments are currently available. I ended up going to a totally different area for my massage. My mistake, I should have asked the concierge when I got there, and didn't. I let it slip, thinking I'd just waltz in. That was my first lesson! And the lesson is: Be proactive. In any case, the idea is there, maybe just clarify what's on offer!
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking – Fueling the Fun!
This is where things actually shined in a completely unexpected manner. The restaurants (plural!) are a real draw. Asian breakfast, Asian cuisine in restaurant, International cuisine in restaurant, Vegetarian restaurant? I was ready for a feast. Let me tell you, the buffet at breakfast? Amazing. Seriously, I may or may not have eaten my weight in Nasi Goreng every single morning. The coffee was… well, the coffee was strong. Coffee/tea in restaurant, Poolside bar, Snack bar. The poolside bar was a lifesaver for those afternoons where you just wanted to hide from the sun with a cold drink. Happy hour? YES! Made my wallet - and me - very happy. There were a few times when I was tempted into the pool bar (a bit more than a few…). The food in general, was outstanding.
Cleanliness and Safety – Above and Beyond (Mostly!)
Okay, so safety is paramount, right? I'm a bit of a germaphobe, so I was happy to see the checks and balances. Anti-viral cleaning products, Daily disinfection in common areas, Hand sanitizer – they’re on it! They even had Individually-wrapped food options at the buffet, which was a thoughtful touch. Rooms sanitized between stays. Staff trained in safety protocol. This hotel is doing its best, they're being really, really careful.
For the Kids & Families - A Haven!
Babysitting service, Family/child friendly, Kids meal, I felt so bad for all of the kids. They'd be able to run free forever, never have to stop, and take breaks to eat delicious meals!. This place gets families are traveling, and made me very impressed by the hotel!
The "Sky House" - The Actual Room!
Okay, the Sky House itself. It's a 3-bedroom apartment, right? And it's AMAZING! Air conditioning in public area, Air conditioning, Additional toilet, Alarm clock, Bathrobes, Bathtub, Blackout curtains, Carpeting, Closet, Coffee/tea maker, Complimentary tea, Daily housekeeping, Desk, Extra long bed, Free bottled water, Hair dryer, High floor, In-room safe box, Interconnecting room(s) available, Ironing facilities, Laptop workspace, Linens, Mini bar, Mirror, Non-smoking, On-demand movies, Private bathroom, Reading light, Refrigerator, Satellite/cable channels, Scale, Seating area, Separate shower/bathtub, Shower, Slippers, Smoke detector, Socket near the bed, Sofa, Soundproofing, Telephone, Toiletries, Towels, Umbrella, Visual alarm, Wake-up service, Wi-Fi [free], Window that opens.
What I loved most? The view! Seriously, from up there, I felt like I was on top of the world. Those big windows let in so. much. light. Internet access – wireless, which was generally pretty solid (though there were a few blips, a little shout out to the hotel wi-fi). I loved having a proper desk to work on, and they even have an Ironing facilities!
Services and Conveniences – The Little Things
Concierge, Convenience store, Currency exchange, Daily housekeeping, Doorman, Dry cleaning, Elevator, Facilities for disabled guests, Food delivery, Gift/souvenir shop, Ironing service, Laundry service, Luggage storage, Meeting/banquet facilities, Safety deposit boxes, this list goes on. They've though of everything!
Getting Around - Easy Peasy!
Airport transfer, Car park [free of charge], Car park [on-site], Car power charging station, Taxi service, Valet parking, Bicycle parking They make getting around easy.
My Honest, Messy Verdict:
Look, this place isn't perfect. It's not some impossibly pristine, flaw-free paradise. But it is a fantastic option in Tangerang. I'll admit, I wasn't entirely prepared for what it would be. But that's what makes traveling so fun. I made some minor missteps, and had a couple of hiccups. But overall, it was a positive experience, filled with excellent food, amazing views, and enough comfort to fully enjoy a well-deserved vacation.
Would I go back? ABSOLUTELY! I'm already checking availability!

Monschau Escape: Eiffel Oasis Getaway - Your Dream Holiday Awaits!
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because this itinerary isn't your polished, Instagram-filtered travel guide. This is real life, people. And let's be honest, sometimes real life is a glorious, beautiful mess. This is my chaotic-genius plan for surviving (and hopefully thriving) in the Spacious HomeyLiving 3BR Sky House BSD By Travelio in Tangerang, Indonesia.
Day 1: Arrival and Assimilation (aka, Praying the AC Works)
- 1:00 PM: Arrive at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK). Okay, first impression: hot. Humid. Smells vaguely of delicious satay. Fingers crossed the Grab driver (or the app actually works this time) is on time. Last time, I ended up bartering for a bajaj ride with a crumpled-up tissue and a hopeful gaze. Let's not repeat that performance.
- 2:30 PM: Finally in the Grab! Traffic is, as expected, a glorious, slow-motion ballet of honking and near-misses. Try to remain calm. Think of the Sky House. Think of the promised spaciousness. Think of the potential for air conditioning.
- 3:30 PM: Arrive at the Sky House. Heart skips a beat. Honestly, the photos online were a bit… airbrushed. But hey, the view! It's… well, it's something. Let’s call it “urban chic” with a side of unfinished construction. The check-in process with Travelio is probably going to be a saga, but I'm trying to stay positive.
- 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM: Unpacking and Reconnaissance. Okay, first order of business: find the AC. Pray to the HVAC gods. Yes! It works! Praise be! Now, the fun part: exploring. Three bedrooms? I could practically host a slumber party… alone. Which, let's face it, is the likely outcome. Discover the kitchen (will I actually cook? The jury's out). Scour the living room for the Wi-Fi password (essential for human survival).
- 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Grocery Run. Time to brave the local minimarket. Armed with a phrasebook and a healthy dose of optimism, I’m off to procure snacks. Snacks are essential. Also, bottled water. Hydration is key when you're battling both jet lag and the local heat.
- 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM: Dinner. Order some food from the travelio menu, will it be great? probably not, but better than nothing.
- 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM: Collapse. Netflix. Possibly some minor existential dread. Did I remember to pack the earplugs? I feel like the city is going to get more noises at night.
Day 2: Delving into BSD City and Its… Charm
- 8:00 AM: Wake up. Try to resist the urge to hit snooze for three hours. Fail spectacularly.
- 9:00 AM: Breakfast. This is where the "cooking" I mentioned earlier may actually happen. Instant coffee (a travel staple) and whatever snacks I scrounged up from the minimarket.
- 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM: Explore BSD City. Okay, here's where I get real. “Explore” might be the wrong word. More like, tentatively wander around. The plan is to venture out and see what BSD City has to offer. Maybe the mall, the park, the local market… Whatever. My expectations are not exactly sky-high.
- 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM: Lunch. Find something to eat in the mall before my blood sugar drops to dangerous levels.
- 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM: Back at the Sky House. Nap time. The city has wiped me out. And reading!
- 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM: Trying (again) to find a place to eat, I would love to found somewhere to have dinner in the sky house but it will be too tedious.
- 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM: More Netflix. Seriously, is anyone surprised?
Day 3: A Trip… and Misadventures (with a Dash of Regret)
- 8:00 AM: Wake up and I'm surprisingly well.
- 9:00 AM: Wake up and breakfast.
- 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM: I'm not sure, I'm just going out.
- 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM: Lunch.
- 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM: I need to be back to the sky house, I'm sure there is more to explore, but oh well.
- 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM: Dinner.
- 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM: I'm not sure I'll need it, I may regret my choice.
Day 4: Farewell Sky House (and Embracing the Unknown)
- 8:00 AM: Wake up.
- 9:00 AM: Breakfast.
- 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM: Pack up. Check out. It’s been real, Sky House. Mostly.
- 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM: Last-minute lunch somewhere nearby.
- 1:00 PM: Head to the airport.
- 3:00 PM: Airport.
- 5:00 PM: Flight time.
Important Notes (and Disclaimers):
- Flexibility is key. This itinerary is more of a suggestion than a hard-and-fast rule. The point is to be open to spontaneous adventures (or, let's be honest, naps).
- Embrace the imperfections. Things will go wrong. Count on it. But that's where the best stories come from, right? (Right?)
- Be kind to yourself. Travel is tiring. Don't feel pressured to do everything. If you need to spend a day staring at the ceiling, do it. You deserve it.
- Safety first. Stick to well-lit areas, be aware of your surroundings, and trust your gut. And always, always carry hand sanitizer.
- Most Importantly: HAVE FUN! Even if it's a messy, imperfect, chaotic kind of fun. That's the best kind.
So there you have it. My gloriously imperfect plan. Wish me luck (and maybe send backup snacks). Indonesia, here I (sort of) come!

Escape to Paradise: Tangerang Sky House FAQ - Because You *Need* to Know (and I Totally Get You)
So, is this "Sky House" actually *in* the sky? Like, am I gonna need a jetpack?
Okay, first things first: no jetpacks. Sadly. But the view? OH. MY. GOODNESS. Okay, I'm getting ahead of myself. It's not literally in the clouds, but it's *high*. Think, like, "wow, Tangerang actually looks kinda pretty from up here" high. And trust me, after navigating the legendary Tangerang traffic (seriously, it's an art form, I swear), you'll *feel* like you've escaped to a different planet. Basically, it's a fancy apartment, but the altitude is basically the selling point...aside from the actual apartment, of course.
What's the deal with the "3BR"? Can it actually fit a family without a brawl breaking out?
Three bedrooms, you say? Well, let me tell you, I’ve been in three-bedroom places that felt smaller than my shoebox apartment back in college. This one? Actually, it’s… decent. The master is pretty sweet – imagine waking up to that view! – and the other two are… well, let’s be honest, they're fine. Perfect for kids, maybe. My sister and I are very close, but we would be *insane* if we had lived in the same room our whole lives. They're reasonably sized, not crammed-together-like-sardines sized. So, yes, a family could fit. Whether they *enjoy* it is a different story. You know how families are: drama, arguments...and then, the heartwarming moments. It's all part of the chaos. My family has already sent me a message about wanting to visit, this place is a dream.
Okay, the pool. Tell me about the pool. Is it Instagram-worthy or just a glorified puddle?
Oh, the pool. Listen, people, the pool is… glorious. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating slightly. But after a long day (or a particularly brutal shopping trip at the nearby mall – yes, I went), jumping into that water is pure heaven. It's not Olympic size, obviously, but big enough for a proper swim. The view from the pool deck is fantastic and its Instagram-worthy. Seriously, the pictures turned out great. If you were just looking for a nice place to relax, you wouldn't be disappointed. I went during the golden hour (because, priorities, right?). And the colors of the sunset reflecting off the water? *Chef's kiss*. It's not just a puddle, people. Don't let anyone tell you it is. The pool gives you the opportunity to relax in the sun and that is just a huge win in my book.
Is the kitchen actually usable, or just for show? Because I *need* to know.
The kitchen... alright, let's get real here. I consider myself a fairly decent cook. I like to think that I can whip up a meal when needed, but don't ask me to make anything too complicated (seriously, I'd probably burn the house down). The kitchen is well-equipped - not like, Michelin-star approved, but it’s perfectly fine for making some simple meals. And yes, I did attempt to make nasi goreng. Not the Instagram-worthy kind, but it was edible! (Emphasis on *edible*). There's a fridge, a stove, and enough space to, you know, actually *move around*. Unlike my own kitchen, which is basically a black hole of clutter. But here, I can make myself a morning coffee and be completely satisfied. So yeah, the kitchen is usable. Just don't expect me to bake a soufflé. Unless you're okay with a minor fire hazard.
What about transportation? Are we talking Grab, Gojek, or do I need to learn the art of bajaj-negotiating?
Okay, real talk: Tangerang traffic is a BEAST. Absolutely legendary. It could give Jakarta a run for its money. But thankfully, Grab and Gojek are your best friends here. They're readily available, reliable (most of the time), and a lifesaver. Bajaj-negotiating? Unless you're feeling particularly adventurous (and have a strong stomach for the fumes and the… let’s just say, *unique* driving style), stick to the apps. You can even order food through the apps. I mean, you could try to flag down a bajaj, but honestly, I'd rather spend my time at the mall (because yes, there's a mall nearby, and yes, I am a sucker for shopping). Public transport? Potentially, but it's not the most convenient. Apps are your best bet, my friends. Trust me, your sanity will thank you.
Is it noisy? I need peace and quiet. I am a delicate flower, basically.
Noise levels… Depends on your definition of "peace and quiet", and your tolerance for city sounds. You probably *do* get some city sounds from the house. I'd say they're not overly intrusive. It's not *dead* silent, but it's not a construction site either. Basically… if you need absolute, utter silence to sleep, you might want to invest in some earplugs. Or move deep into the jungle. And, I mean, if the noise is a problem, just turn on some music! Maybe even some calming waves sounds to drown out the city. It's manageable, though, honestly. I’m a light sleeper too, I swear, but I still managed. If you're a delicate flower, maybe bring a white noise machine. Or just embrace the urban symphony! You know, city sounds have a certain charm when they’re not constantly going.
What is the best place to eat near the Sky House?
Okay, the food scene.... Okay, so honestly, I tried a few places. There are some good restaurants surrounding the apartment. You have your typical fast-food chains, but if you're looking for some authentic Indonesian food, there are plenty of small warungs (local eateries) nearby, all worth a try. I had some amazing *sate* (grilled meat skewers) one night! One place had the best *gado-gado* (Indonesian salad with peanut sauce) I’ve ever tasted. Also, the delivery options are pretty amazing too, you can get everything you need, literally. So, long story short: you will eat well, my friend. Just be flexible. And adventurous. And maybe bring some antacids, just in case.
Would you recommend it? Honestly. No holding back.
Okay, the million-dollar question: Would I recommend it? Absolutely. Yes. 100%. It's not perfect, nothing is. It really depends on what you're looking for. If you want a luxurious stay with some scenic views and a taste of modern livingCity Stay Finder
