Ever watched an Architectural Digest video of a celebrity showing off their prized mansion with marbled floors and an Olympic-length pool, and thought, “Damn, I wish this was my house”? No shame, envy is human nature. But unless you’re a singer who struck gold with a one-hit-wonder or a socialite who holds permanent residence in tabloid headlines, going home to a multi-million dollar residence is likely an improbable prospect—doesn’t mean you can’t for a day or two, though! After combing through lists of properties, we’ve narrowed down the best Airbnb with private pool in KL and Selangor for a staycation worthy of magazine spreads.
