The Best Things About Royal Domain

My honest straight forward answer is:


1. Vicinity to Central Kuala Lumpur (KLCC); and
2. Value for Money


Vicinity to Central Kuala Lumpur (KLCC)

Before I bought my unit, I spoke to a friend of mine who lived next door at Sri Putramas 1. He said that it only takes 5 minutes to get to Central Kuala Lumpur. Now I thought that he was joking, but when I tried to drive to KL one weekend with the family – it’s true! Royal Domain is really that near to central Kuala Lumpur! Of course on normal days you’ll have the traffic congestion and all – but it’s really not that bad.

There will that occasional bad day, which is not because of the traffic system but maybe because of an odd lorry that broke down, a silly accident or a serious one; or just really heavy rain. To be quiet frank, if you're into calm quiet green backdrops, then you shouldn't be in KL in the first place, and you may want to live in Rawang or Nilai or Shah Alam or somewhere where there is less people. But if you ar an urbanite, and you need a home that is very close to central KL yet far enough to get away - then Royal Domain is your buy!


Value for Money


Actually, the value-for-money part of things is what caught my attention when I bought my unit.

What Royal Domain really gives is VALUE. I’m talking about five star facilities at really affordable price. Highlights include: the humungous and beautiful swimming pool, landscaping, waterfall, tennis courts, gym, children play area, sauna, club house, restaurant, barbecue facilities, convenience store, etc. etc. etc. as mentioned in this blog, you can read through. It’s a complete package in itself. There’s also a car wash at the entry of the car park from behind the building. It’s very reasonably priced, and the quality of service is very good.

My strong guess as to why it’s relatively quite affordable to buy and live in Royal Domain is because of the building material. If you are a civil engineer or a surveyor, you’ll know this very well. I’m a trained civil engineer myself, and I can see how the developer (Mayland) managed to reduce costs for the development. Without compromising on safety and using substandard materials, they have managed to bring up the development, to make it look very appeasing yet affordable.


The Best Kept Secret: My Personal Opinion


The thing that most residents don’t even know is the Pasar Tani in Segambut which is just like 2 minutes drive away on Saturday morning. Hahah! I buy all the fresh fruits and vegetables and all other kitchen needs for the family there. It’s ridiculously cheap too! Seriously! Really fresh items at really low prices. I would go at about 7:15am, and come back an hour later, like last weekend. Basically – Putramas is like the border of Hartamas and beside it is Segambut. So this is my best kept secret, which is no secret no more now! Hahahah!


Security & Maintenance


I’ve decided to place a sub-topic for this one, for the fact that indeed: the security guards at Royal Domain are really doing a great job. In big numbers they cover almost every where you can think of, and they are always on the prowl to protect the area. There are many guards and they are always on the lookout for mischief and dodgy behaviour.Overall – I am very pleased with my residence tenure till now at Royal Domain.

In terms of maintenance, the cleaners also do their job well. They sweep the floors, aisles, from floor to floor, in the lifts, wipe stains of the walls, and do the necessary maintenance for whatever that crops up. The trash room (contrary to my lowly expectations!) are very clean and organised. There is constant ventilation with electrical ventilation, and it is far from smelling like a dump site, truly.
