Penang hiding gem

Speaking of family-friendly beach resorts and luxury digs for couples, Batu Ferringhi’s best beachfront resorts are another great reason to visit! If rustic beach huts are what you crave, you won’t find those on Batu Ferringhi Beach. What you will find here are a range of first-class beach resorts from modest and mid-range to some of the very best hotels on offer in Penang. One of the things we love about traveling in Malaysia is the value you get for your money, and hotels in Batu Ferringhi are certainly no exception. Gigi and I were particularly surprised by the level of service and amenities you can get on the beach in Penang over what you get in Thailand’s top beach destinations at the same price point.
