Percutian di Langkawi – cuti cuti Malaysia
Okay, for my friends who happen
to read this blog, they know that I have been to Langkawi a lot that I can even
consider it as my second home. For those of you, I truly recommend Langkawi for
its beauty, its food and its duty free goods. The summary:
Date: 14th – 16th November 2014
Duration: 3D2N
Type: Leisure Girls Trip
Airlines: Air Asia
This time I went with my
bestfriends as part of a Bachelorette trip for Kak Pah. All of us bought the
tickets pretty early which still cost us RM 154 per person. We book the hotel
at Cenang Beach named Mali Beach Resort which is famous for its tree top
chalet. Due to last minute bail out and economy reason, we stayed at the beach
chalet instead of the tree top chalet.
We have laid out a lot of
activities while in Langkawi. Activities I did not do with my family.
Parasailing, Island Hoping etc. On that Friday, all 4 of us took a cab from
home. Feeza and Kak Pah came to my house and the cab stop at Syima’s place to
pick her up. We reached KLIA 2 and checked in the luggage. We depart at 12.30
p.m and reached there 1 hour later.
Reaching the airport, we picked
up our car rental which I have prebooked before going off for lunch. We book a
MyVi but he gave us a Nissan Latio because Myvi was not available. The price
for Langkawi car rental for 3 days is RM 160. I knew Langkawi road at the back
of my hand. It is custom in Malaysia that when you get your rental car you fuel
meter will indicate almost empty compared to oversea. So, ask for the nearest
gas station to fill the tank. I am confident the oil inside is just enough to
get to that gas station. -_-“
Our hungry tummy cannot wait
anymore. We made a stop at a restaurant in Kuah where I usually had lunch with
my family at Nasi Campur Top BBQ restaurant. It provides a generous spreads of Malaysian food –
Nasi Campur. Losts of dishes – grill fish, chicken, soup Gear Box – lots! This
restaurant serves delicious food with very reasonable price. Let see if I can
attached some location or picture okay.

It was almost 3 p.m meaning we
can check into the hotel. We drove to Cenang, check in our chalets and rest a
bit. Syima wants to do parasailing so we surveyed the watersports counter at
the hotel. For locals, parasailing costs around RM60. At first we thought we
stayed at the beach but the guy invited us to come along. The sail off was at
Pantai Tengah so all of us board the small boat to the beach. Nampak tak harga local dengan harga tourist.
Abang tu kata local bg 60 je, kalau tourist bagi 90 ataupun naik sampai 120
untuk parasail. Nadia x lah kot sebab takut ibu tak bagi pulak.

He put Syima on harness, BTW
there is the instructor. I acted as her photographer/videographer. She has to
made a quick run while the boat pull the parasail and off she goes. They made
one quick round and they land at the beach. Syima fell down like face down
during landing which made our heart stops. But she manage to run, she stumbles
during the end though.

That is Syima BTW. |
We went back to Cenang and I
quickly go to my favourite spa in Langkawi just across our hotel which is the
Alun-Alun Spa. I truly recommend this spa. My family and I tried it once and we
always come back for the service. I choose a 1.5 hours Bali massage which I
booked earlier and little that I know that Syima choose to go for treatment
there as well.

At Alun-Alun, it is a Balinese
concept spa. When you arrive, they will bring you a Patio for a foot soak and a
ginger tea. The therapist will treat you like a princess. You are given an
entire spa suite for yourself. Lockers, toilets and showera are provided in
each room – beautifully decorated of course. The massage? Only one word –
HEAVENLY. I feel fresh and energize after each massage session. Before going
back, they serve another ginger tea with some carrots. For years, I have been a
happy customer. Syima gave out the same feedback too! CLICK HERE--->Alum-alun Spa, Langkawi
After spa, we made a deal with
Feeza and Kak pah to meet up at the Haji Ramli Restaurant beside the spa. We
ate seafood and tomyam. Food was okay but I think it was cheaper the last time
I went there in June/ August.
After dinner, we take a walk at
Cenang and finally bought the package for tomorrow’s island hoping trip. Most
tour offers the same, RM50 per pax.
