8-9 march 2011
Fun filled short trip with the family after so very long!
The deluxe chalet is very recommended as my family and I had the most amazing experience. The room is very comfy and big enough to accommodate the 5 of us. Most importantly for me, it is clean. They even have a veranda outside the room for us to sit and chill while mesmerized by the ocean view and sandy beach and other scenic landscape. My favorite part of the stay was the relaxing on the canopies along the whole stretch of the beach just taking in the sea view and breeze or dipping in the clear clean sea water.
There isn't much to shop around though. But there is a duty free provision shop which sells everything from cartons of cigarettes to quality whisky to tidbits to clothes and they are really cheap. The mode of transport moving around the villages would be by 4 wheelers with a charge rm 40 and above depending on your destination. If you know the way around or just want to explore you can rent a motorcycle.
Its a great island to just get away from the hustle and bustle of city. Somewhere you can have a sense of peace, calm and serenity. The exciting activities you can experience like snorkeling and the clear blue water revealing the pretty fishes and other water sports are just exhilarating. I personally recommend it for beach lovers like me and also just make sure to check on the weather forecast before heading there as it might be boring and quite dangerous to go during the monsoon and rainy season.
There is the Berjaya Airport where you can head straight from the air overlooking the view. But I personally prefer the Ferry ride over the ocean where I can admire the mountains and islands at every stop.
