YourRetreat @ i-City → Book direct
Booking
Yes, you can book these units direct.
This is the official site for the two YourRetreat units at i-City, Shah Alam. Both are owned and run by Rauf, and both can be booked by messaging him — no platform, no account, no booking fee sitting between you and the person with the keys.
How it works
- Send your datesCheck-in, check-out, how many of you, and whether you want Hyde Tower, Liberty Tower, or both.
- Rauf checks and quotes youHe answers the messages himself, so you're not waiting on an agency to get back to an owner who then gets back to you.
- Confirm and payOnce the dates and the rate are agreed, he sends payment details and the booking is held.
- Let yourself in from 3pmCheck-in is self-service with a lockbox. The code, your parking bay and directions into i-City come through before you travel, not on the day.
Straight answers
What booking direct actually changes.
- Do I get a better rate?
-
Ask, and Rauf will tell you what he can do for your dates.
Rates move with the season and with how long you're staying, and there's no platform fee added on top here, so it's a conversation rather than a fixed number on a screen. Staying a week or more, ask about a longer-stay rate — both units allow it.
- Is Airbnb still an option?
-
Yes, and it stays that way.
Both units are on Airbnb (Hyde Tower, Liberty Tower) and will stay there. If you'd rather book through the platform you already use, book there — the reviews are worth reading either way. Some guests just prefer talking to the owner, and this page is for them.
- Who am I actually messaging?
-
Rauf. The owner, not an agent.
The same person who answers on Airbnb, minus the platform. More about the host.
- What time can I get in?
-
From 3pm, and you let yourself in.
Self check-in with a lockbox, so a late flight or a bad run down the Federal Highway doesn't mean anyone is waiting up for you.
- What about cancelling?
-
Agreed with you when the booking is confirmed.
Plans change. Say so early and it's usually workable.
- Can I book both units together?
-
Yes — that's what larger groups do.
Two units, up to three guests in each, both in the same precinct and both by the mall bridge. Say so in your message and Rauf will check both calendars at once.
Send the dates and let's see if they're free.
One message is enough — dates, how many of you, and which unit if you have a preference.
