i've never travel to all these west coast island through any travel agent... they are definately more expensive compare to self organised trips. after all they do earn a living.
so i never visit matta fair with the mind of finding a trip.
only somehow my other half just like to go there for some weird reason...
women ;p

i rather have my travel agent do some stuff for me. self organise very headache.

5 couples all working full time dahla lack time to run around. buy airfare thru travel agent cheaper than walking into KLIA and buy. wanna do research on the destination also damn mah fan. holiday is juz that...a holiday. dont want it to turn out to be working holiday !

For those who already asking for package prices now, it is advisable to check through the resorts' respective website. Eg. www.tunabay.com.my has the prices for packages starting CNY till end of season.
I find some prices quoted by respective resorts' website is cheaper than prices quoted by pinganchorage website.

usually the executive/coach bus from kl to besut jetty or the jetty nearest perhentian is how much ya ? im intent to go pulau besar on 15-18 may with 15 or more ppl ( like a gathering ) .. usually wut is the affordable package ? budget around 250-300 per person .

redang is sooo worth it
till now i still think back the wonderful times i had in redang

To fellows LYTians,

I am organizing a tour of 40-50 peoples to Pulau Redang this upcoming March ( approximately last week of March 08 ) for 3 D 2 N.

I would like to know which hotels in Pulau Redang that could provide me the below requirement:-

1. Golf course
2. Conference Room for 40-50 ppls ( Renting it for 2 days only )
3. High-end / Luxury class of hotel is fine as the price is not an issue ( P/S: of coz an affortable one )

Thank you in advance for those who help

berjaya, but i'm not sure if they have golf course.

Any other option beside Berjaya ?

only berjaya has golf course....

In Redang, there's no other place except Berjaya Redang. Well, it's not on the Long beach though.

Well, this is your only option for a golf course resort

i thought they demolished the golf course and change it to the small airport?

matta fair can go find for self-organize trip.
go to buy those voucher for hotel/resort.

and can copy their activity too.. hehehe..
so.. no need think for the activity.

I am interested to go Perhentian Besar this coming June. But concerned about the price...does anyone know any cheap, nice, and good place to stay?

good questions.. i also planning to go there too.. in august maybe..

sorry arr... me peasant... not much money to spend. so have to take what is the best deal around. usually i only pay RM80 per night at suria in perhentian kecil. it's got air-con and hot shower. but not 24 hour eletricity. or optionally rock garden RM10 in long beach... but beware the roof has got holes
on the big island i've stayed in flora bay resort.. RM50 for fan room, no hot shower.

want to ask, during april-may, redang packages no more CNY price rite?

i'm planning to make a trip to redang, this is not my first trip so i was planning to go for laguna redang.
does laguna include meals? what about the snorkeling packages?

I guess all the packages there include meals and barbecue.
Perhentian Besar is great, but Perhentian Kecil is more great.
P.Besar is where most of us will go, P.Kecil mostly are tourists, and if you are lucky, you can see some of them naked on the beach.

Redang is nice, the scenery and the beach is nicer than Perhentian. But the snorkelling point for Redang will be less than Perhentian.

I've checked with Berjaya Hotels & Resorts today, and as per said by rinaidil, the golf course has been demolished and changed into a small airport or something related to aviation.

So, I guess there isn't any hotel in Redang Island that provides golf course facility at the current moment huh?

oh... i went to p.besar last time
i thought p.kecil is for the workers there - residential area..
btw i stayed in cocohut challet, it was nice, food is great, and the boatman was superbly nice, we got to snorkel a lot more places for free because we wanted to see the baby sharks and some wild creatures..

I dun think Redang has got a golf course. In fact the Redang island is very small only..
