We absolutely loved our stay at Pangkor Laut Resort. We had been to Pangkor Island before but the views don't get even close to what you have at PLR. The staff is great, always greeting you by your name and making themselves available to help. The food is amazing!!! Absolutely loved this resort!#mytripvlog

I rarely go to a lodging place and plus, this time around, it was with my whole big fam. From time to time, my big family from my mom side would organize a trip, like a reunion to engage back all the family members. It was a splendid 3 days and 2 nights, we had BBQ for two nights in a row, we were in the pool most of the time because of all the children- they love to play in the water so much. And also, it's very near to the beach! I would walk to the beach early in the morning. I remember some of the locals said Hi to me, they were really friendly. I don't remember much about the price, might be about RM 200 per night for a room. They have personal bathroom in each of the room, and air conditioned as well.

It's a 15-minute speedboat ride from the port, about an hour's drive from Ipoh, Malaysia! Since it's one island, one resort, the entire island is a resort and only guests can enter🏝 It's great to escape the usual noise and relax on a quiet island✨ There are many facilities, such as two pools, a spa, a gym, tennis courts, squash, a game room (table tennis, billiards, darts, various board games, etc.), a recording room (it was fully booked and we couldn't use it, but maybe karaoke?), a theater room, etc., so we stayed for three nights and never got bored. There is also a sunset cruise, but it costs extra✨When we went, it was over capacity and we couldn't get on😢 Above all, the emerald beach on the back of the island is very beautiful!! ! We spent most of the daytime there. The prices are set for tourists, so it's expensive for Malaysia, but please go on a special occasion. #Couple trip #Family trip

Sunset cruise is one of the activities I did when I was staying at Pangkor Laut Resort, and it is a worthwhile activity to do there, simply the best . The boat is leaving from the Pangkor Laut Jetty at 5.30 pm, sailing around Pangkor Island. The boat has an upper deck for passengers to sit; if the weather is permitted; otherwise, all passengers should sit inside the boat. The sunset hour is magical time; the sun turns golden and paints the sky a beautiful magical, and unreal color. I am so lucky to witness the rainbow near the end of the cruise trip. Enjoy the cruise and the sunset with the drink of your choice, including wine and some snacks. Spent that moment with your loved ones. Location : Pangkor Laut Resort, Malaysia #gooutside #malaysia

Palau Pangkor is located on the west coast of Perak, Malaysia. It consists of nine small islands and is one of the most beautiful islands in North Malaysia. There is also a chance to see sea turtles spawning and hornbills.

Itinerary Day 1: Arrived in Lumut in the afternoon. Spent some time exploring the town and the Lumut Waterfront Esplanade. It's a peaceful area to enjoy the sunset and get a feel for the local vibe. Grabbed dinner at a seaside seafood restaurant. Day 2: Took a morning ferry to Pangkor Island. Rented a bike and toured the island, stopping by attractions like the Dutch Fort and Fu Lin Kong Temple. Relaxed at Teluk Nipah Beach and enjoyed some fresh seafood for lunch. Returned to Lumut by evening. Day 3: Visited the local market for souvenirs. Had a relaxing brunch at a local café before checking out. Stopped at the Naval Base Museum (Muzium TLDM) on the way back for a quick visit—great for history lovers! 🏨 Accommodation Stayed at [Hotel Name], which was conveniently located near the waterfront. Clean rooms, friendly staff, and a great view if you opt for the sea-facing rooms. Ideal for short stays. 🍴 Food Recommendations Capri Restaurant: Great for seafood with a view. Warung Puteri: A local favorite for traditional Malay dishes. Daddy’s Café (Pangkor): A charming beachfront café on Pangkor Island. 📌 Tips Bring cash—some places still don’t accept cards. The ferry to Pangkor runs regularly, but check the schedule in advance. Rent a bike or motorbike on the island for convenience.

The Ebbing Water Phenomenon on Pangkor Island, Malaysia, is a rare and fascinating natural event where the seawater recedes significantly, revealing a temporary sandbar or pathway between certain points of the island and nearby smaller islets. This phenomenon is often compared to the "Sea of Galilee Crossing" or "Moses' Path", as it creates an illusion of walking on water. You can see this amazing phenomenon once a year. 📍Address: @Pulau Pangkor, Lumut, Perak it's been observed in various coastal areas of Malaysia, such as Pantai Pasir Bogak and Teluk Nipah. These beaches experience significant tidal changes and might contribute to an ebbing water effect. #favouriteitinerary #travel #cuticutimalaysia #visitperak #pangkorisland #familytravel

This Sunday, I came to a little-known mysterious attraction - the Taishang Laojun Temple at the Sitiawan Lumut Naval Port. This temple is not only a center of faith, but also has a unique color because it is located "inside the naval base." To enter here, a special step is required: exchanging your ID card for a pass. This sense of ritual makes the entire visiting process full of anticipation and mystery. After passing security check, what comes into view is the tranquility and solemnity of the temple, which forms a sharp contrast with the surrounding military facilities. The temple is dedicated to Laozi, and it is a quiet and peaceful place with a lot of incense. Standing in front of the temple, you can feel the gentle sea breeze and the naval vessels looming in the distance, as if reminding you that this is a unique spiritual place. This is not only a holy place for believers, but also a great place for travelers to explore the unique culture of Malaysia. If you like to explore off-the-beaten-path attractions, this is definitely worth a visit! **Tips:** 1. Remember to bring your ID card, it is necessary to change your ID card to enter! 2. "Dress modestly" to show respect for the temple and the military (avoid sleeveless tops, shorts, or overly revealing clothing). 3. Respect the regulations of military areas and do not take photos or enter restricted areas at will. This experience made me deeply realize that traveling is not only about seeing the scenery, but also about exploring the interweaving of culture and history. Have you visited any special temples or attractions? Leave a message and share it!
