The Acacia Retreat, Janda Baik

It was a long weekend, Saturday to Tues.. Agong birthday, Awal Muharram and all.

We didn't plan any trip earlier because hubby's job sometimes requires him to work on the weekend.

But due to his long MC, we went for a short holiday anyway.

Hubs found this resort from Agoda search. It's Acacia Retreat at Karak@70km. Never heard of it before but it turns out a place of my dream.

There are several types of accommodation ranging from RM200 to RM500+.. The smallest is the Smurf type, which was made up of culvert!.. Then they have Wooden type. It's just opposite Simpleton, where our room was.

Well, let me just summarise from my view:

1. SMURF
- Cheapest, smallest, not suitable for kids, not sure whether the toilet is attached, quite far from main lobby area, kinda scary for me at night
- But it looks good during the day, unique

2. Simpleton
- Modern, simple, price range from RM250 to RM250, superb view of the foggy hills, nearby the main lobby and pool, own balcony

3. Wooden
- Wood design, sharing balcony, just opposite simpleton

4. Brick
- Furthest from the main lobby area, somewhat 'floating'

5. The mansion
- Most expensive with few bedrooms and living hall. Located on ground floor, no view except for the small man made lake

What are ethe activities here:
1. Jungle tracking with guides at RM5 per head
2. ATV at RM40/30mins for around hotel area, or RM80/hour for jungle trail
3. BBQ facilities rental at RM100 for 1 to 10 pax. Food for grilling not provided
4. Bicycle rental
5. Fishing rod rental

Perhentian Island revisited

23 - 24 Mar 2018

It's school holiday and we decided to visit Pulau Perhentian again. It's going to be the first time to TT and family though.

Due to peak season, hotel price shoots up. We got Perhentian Island Resort at the price if RM891 (including taxes) for two premier beach front rooms.

The room was nice, connected (room 107 & 106) and with free breakfast. Beach was just outside, and within walking distance to Coral View Resort, Mama chalet etc.

Oh, before that, the boat ride from Kuala Besut jetty was pretty rough. Monsoon isn't really settled yet, i guess. This time we took a return boat tour from Safe Park company, costing at RM70/adult and RM35/child. We also booked snorkeling trip from them, which i think cost about RM60/adult.

At the resort, they also provided snorkeling trip at RM40/adult and other activities like kayaking etc. Othe activities are jungle trekking, yoga, wayang pacak (movie by the beach), and crafts making which are all FOC for the hotel guests. Diving trips are payable.

Our snorkeling trip took over 2 hours. Remember to bring breads to attract fishes and fresh water in case u got dizzy.

I guess that's some of great memories from our 2d1n trip. We will be back for sure.

Insyallah

Desaru, Johor

It's my first time coming here to the eastern part of Johor coast - Desaru... or maybe I came may yrs ago with my uni friends... complete forgot.

Drove from KL at 3pm, then arrived at Tuna Maya resort near Bandar Penawar at 720pm... traffic was clear.. only made two stops, one for fuel, one for prayer....

From PLUS highway just exit Desaru, then can see JPO at the exit (wow.. drool). Drove for another hour via Senai highway. Toll was RM40+ and RM13+

So here at Bandar Penawar, a very small town with limited sources. Only one appealing kedai makan, D'Bangkok village. Got one or two kedai mamak. The rest are convenient store.

I stayed at Tunamaya Beach & Spa Resort. Very nice beach, pool is huge, by the sea.. and gym, and playground.. there's also watersport activity for parasailing, jetski etc. I wanted to try parasailing.. but quite pricey though.. it's RM110/pax or RM200/2 pax.... sigh!

Other hotels nearby;

1. Sand and sandals - looks like they hv modern room than here

2. Lotus - got waterpark inside

3. Other cheaper hotels.. no beach I guess

Best Western Genting

A last minute trip.. ad hoc upon request by the kiddos...

I found a newly opened Best Western Ion D'Elemen at the peak of Genting Highland.. somewhat 10 minutes from Genting World Plaza...

The room was on sale 26% off, from RM280 (w/o), and I book a 2 single bed, deluxe room w bfast at RM370.. net was RM390.. not bad afterall except for the tiny room and tiny beds...

The morning view was magnificent...a superb sunrise view from the balcony. Our room was at the the South tower, level 6.. room no 6065. It's a sharing corridor with room 6064.. and shared shoe rack outside the room.

I love the huge shower head.. but closet was problematic.. we called for repair but they never did came.. sigh.

On weekends, free shuttle available to First World Plaza at every hour.. until.12 midnight.. on weekdays there's a schedule with less frequency.

BWI is a must repeat I must say.

Batu Feringghi, Penang Island

It's been a while since I came here. Feringghi has always been the place that I like. It's the night life... Walking along the night market.. Massage.. Sport beach.. and all

Holiday Inn Resort is one of the best hotel here along Feringghi beach. Other choices are such as Golden Sands, Hard Rock Hotel, Bayview, Parkroyal etc.

Holiday Inn has 2 buildings, the Beach side and Feringghi tower. Additional RM145 is applied if you already booked Feringghi tower but wish to move to Beach side. All rooms here (Beach side) are sea view. Wide windows, beautiful ambiance.

Breakfast are complimentary for kids with 2 paying adults. There's also Kids club, you can leave your kids playing here if you wish.

We tried the facial, massage and foot reflexology. It's very very nice. Price from RM35 /30mins

Perhentian Island revisited

Here we are again... Perhentian Island!!

This island never failed me before. And this time, it's never been better.

We booked a complete package via agent Yaudin.. Cost us only RM680 for 2 adult and 2 child (Nana is free, 4 y.o).. Published rate RM250/adult, RM125/child

What is covered?
1. Return boat transfer for 5 pax (cost RM70 return trip per adult, half for child)

2. 1 night stay at Fauna Beach Chalet, 2 Queen sized bed, private toilet (walk in cost RM200++

3. Full board meal for 5pax - lunch, bbq dinner & bfast..

4. 3hrs + snorkeling trip with gears

--------

The journey ;

8am we arrived at Kuala Besut jetty, made full payment at Yaudin..  She walked us to jetty to catch the 830am boat.

Paid RM5/adult & RM2/child for marine Park fee.. Went straight to our boat.

Nice 30mins ride to Fauna Beach Chalet.. Nearby stay along this beach are Flora Bay resort, Arwana Perhentian Resort, and couple more - I cant recall the name. I would recommend Arwana for huge pool (for those not so beach friendly).. And Flora is not too bad also, with convenient store and huge restaurant.

Our chalet on the other hand, a little Hut, no aircond, but fan is fine here.. Little toilet with beach facing eating area.. I love it.

But what I don't love is that our room was just in front of diesel storage..  Ah the smell.. So bad.. Spoiled the mood. That didn't repair the torn hammock too.. Sigh.

Around 6 to 7pm, you can find people selling keropok lekor, burgers, coffee icee blended etc along the beach.. Some restaurant/bar open from 7pm onward..

It's quite lively along this area, and of course nice beach too.. Safe for children too as the wave is not too rough.

---

From my observation yesterday, I saw few hotels that could be the reason for me to come back again... I would stay at Perhentian Island Resort next time..  As we snorkel here (just in front of the resort), I saw live corals, Nemo, plenty of colourful fish, sea cucumbers, sea urchins, and TURTLES!!!

The turtle was calmly eating at the bottom of the clear sea bed and came up to the surface several times... Hubby even got to touch her.. Awesomeness.

Ahh.. Super.

---- 

So let me summaries the whole trip..

Langkawi, the jewel of Kedah

These 3 days has been amazing...

Many places to go and to do in Langkawi

We stay at Pantai Cenang..  Happening at night and many good hotels along the beach. But too costly to stay at Pelangi Meritus. Got special rate of RM520/night instead of >1k for agent or walk ins.

Kilim Geoforest Park is a must.. Eagle feeding, crocodile cave, bat cave, Hole in the Wall floating restaurant, and fish feeding at floating fish farm/pond.

Can rent a boat for RM200/hour

We had dinner also on a cruise, food chartered by Bella Vista catering, boat Lili Marlene.. Nice cruise along the Andaman sea. Can watch sunset also.

Don't forget the cable car and Pulau Dayang Bunting.

Finally of course the duty free complex, HIG complex...

Alhamdulillah

About Holiday Inn Kandooma

The rate? Yes,. Crazy expensive.. But it's worth every penny.. 

There are so many activities here.. And very kids friendly...  The Kandoo Kids welcomes children and they can take care of your kiddos while you enjoy other facilities. Activities like frame making, face painting, origami etc are all FOC. Enjoy as much as they like.

PS4 game are also available..  Movie nights (or day) can be requested if they feel like watching one.
Surfing, diving, sailing, paragliding, etc are all chargeable but it's worth the try!

Even if u don't plan to spend extra on those activities, there are a lot more things to do here on this island... Just have a stroll along the beach, or snorkel on your own at the lagoon (equipments I.e. Mask, goggle, life jacket etc are available at the sports center...  At no charge of course!).
Kayaking is also complimentary. 

Kids eat free here.. With at least 1 paying adult (for dinner and lunch only. Breakfast are free). Food are awesome... 

The staff are super friendly. They called each of us by name.. Even Nana! Ha ha. I didn't know when did she knew Nana's name. Hiihi.  Salute tu Bandula and Janice

Avani Gold Coast Sepang

Yay. Finally booked Avani Gold Coast Sepang..  Very very pricey I must say. I booked via Agoda.  A superior room (2 adult) cost me RM700++. Other rooms are all over 1k!!

So we got room 084. It's on the main trunk. The further it goes the better the room is.. And more expensive of course 

Most activities here are free.. Some payable. White bicycles are free but locked bicycles are available for rental for RM10/day. It's good to have bicycle because waiting for buggy might be longer than you thought.

Avani KIDS is ok, but many toys are not in good condition. Batik painting cost RM26,. Sand art from RM8 and few more.

There are fire shows at Perahu cafe every weekend night and free yoga lesson every morning. Check timetable for other activities.
Beach ? No thank you 
Too dirty !!

At night there are many seafood restaurants along the beach .. But parking isn't easy !
Swimming pool? Very nicely done,. The infinity pool. But pretty small. Thus, packed with people
Fitness center is also sea facing. Looks handsome. But I didn't try.
To conclude. A little bit too pricey but I will do this again next if got better price

Ciao

Gili Trawangan - hotel review

Day 1 || Ombak Sunset @ Gili T.
Very nice ambiance.
Huge room with 2 king beds.
Rate was from RM240 w/o breakfast.. with breakfast is RM300++. Top up breakfast is 100k per pax. So better to book online with breakfast next time.
This place is pretty far from center (4 km).. but beautiful sunset.
Awesomely huge pool.
To go there will need to pay Rp75k to 100k by cidomo (horse ride)
Day 2 and 3 || Vila Ombak @ Gili T.
At the center with many shops.
Easy to dine.. day or night
Room not too big..but ok
Toilet is "open style" concept
Pool is not very big. .but several sections, so u got your privacy there
Lots of mosquito..especially when u leave the toilet door open (it's outside, remember).. but don't worry, they supplied electric mosquito repellent.
Day 4 || Kebun vila, Senggigi @ Lombok
