JEREJAK RAINFOREST RESORT & SPA - PART 1

our trip to Penang starts with our stay in Jerejak Rainforest Resort & Spa Penang.

be wary of this resort price rate if you make a reservation via their website & phone booking. very confusing at first as they have different rate between weekend & public holiday. sebabnya dlm internet price is RM170 for standard room with breakfast (no dinner) when i called the booking officer inform the rate is RM188 with breakfast & dinner, i was thingking...that's a good offer, however since that weekend is a public holiday the price has gone up to RM258 but in the website tak mention lak..

i think on certain cases you might want to make the booking via their website.. like us as we are going to be a late check-in. we do not need the dinner..so 1 nite booking via website & another nite via phone booking.. aduhhh letih membuat perhitungan harga bilik ni..better kan dari rasa tertipu ngan harga bilik yg tak menepati apa yang kita nak..

kami gerak dari KL pukul 4PM on Friday, 29/01 perjalanan mengambil masa 4 jam - we only make one stopover at R&R Sg Perak for 10 mins sebelum sambung perjalanan dan reach Penang at 8.00PM, our ferry service leave at 8.30PM...sempattt..

sampai Jerejak Island at 9.00PM, after check in we headed straight to the room... ye lah dah penat gila ..hari tu kerja pastu direct keluar outstation --walaupun bukan saya yang memandu..penat juga..

lagi satu..a cross over from the mainland to jerejak island via their own ferry service takes 30minutes which is to me teramat-amat slow nak mamphooos..walaupun pulau hanya beberapa jarak..bleh nampak from the mainland..maybe the resort should upgrade their ferry to a smaller & faster boat :-( betul.. memang slow..bayangkan ½ jam ..

the jetty situated nearby to Queensbay Mall.. about 1km before the mall..

the room..for 1st nite -- 29/01/10 (standard room)

very large bathroom.. ntah apa-apa aje buat bathroom besar2.. separate lak tu shower & toilet basin..kat tengah2 sinki tuh..

since the hotel have different type of room, we decided to change room for the 2nd nite.. the room rate will be RM288 still incld breakfast & dinner (price different of RM30)??

tapi bilik JAUH BEZA ..

have a look the 2nd nite room - 30/01/10 (Chalet)

what i m trying to say.. the Chalet room looks better then standard room even harga nya tak byk bezaaa.. lagi selesa..cantik ..sejuk mata memandang.. if you have plans to visit this resort i recommend to take this room - on weekend/weekday/non-public holiday the rates are lower..

following post on the activity will be done later..

nak donload & edit some photos dulu.. :-)..
