Paradise by the Sea 0609

JeffRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Ideal beachfront location. Walk out the lower lobby of the building and you're on the beach. Both the bedroom and the living room have their own balconies facing the ocean, so I spent a lot of time sitting on those balconies listening to the waves crash against the shore. A very spacious apartment with a very comfortable bed and a brand new mini-fridge that kept things very cold. Veronica was always available via text anytime I had any questions. Restaurants were directly across the street and more restaurants and shops were a short walking distance from the apartment. I highly recommend this apartment, it's location and Veronica, the landlord. If I ever return to Penang, I'll stay here once again. Thank you for your hospitality, Veronica! I had an excellent vacation in Penang thanks to you!!🙂

Caryn Vintage Guesthouse

IsaacRating, 5 stars3 months ago

Great room in a great location! 10 minute walk from the ferry terminal, and we were able to walk to pretty much every major attraction in the old part of George Town. Lots of great restaurants, convenience stores, and money exchanges nearby. Plus, you have the whole floor to yourself, which is quite nice. AC works extremely well, and the TV is quite nice.

Chuan Heang Room | Street view

5 out of 5 average rating, 29 reviews3 weeks ago

The room is very comfortable ~ A lot of places on the mural street ~ A lot of places to walk a little and I like the old house ~ Hey, there are small snacks to eat in the room, check in and there are small snacks to eat haha, the experience is very good ~ The experience is very good ~ It is possible that there will be a motorcycle in late at night, the room is on the second floor (ground floor) need to carry luggage up on the second floor (ground floor), take the elderly and children or sleep lightly, you can consider this factor ~

Koh Brothers | Airwell view

4.84 out of 5 average rating, 32 reviews2 weeks ago

Wayne’s unit was elegant and tastefully decorated. Quite stunning, in fact. It was spacious and had everything necessary for a comfortable stay. The location could not have been better; right on one of the most famous streets in the central area of Georgetown. It was also walking distance from the ferry. Despite this, the unit was very quiet. To be honest I could not fault this property. It was one of a kind; so far the best I have stayed at on my trip. Wayne also suggested the services of a driver, but unfortunately, I did not have the time as there was so much to see and do in the immediate vicinity. I thoroughly recommend this property and would definitely return!

single room with share toilet

XiangRating, 5 stars19 months ago

The room is not big but all you need are provided. The bed is 90 centimeters wide with a comfortable pillow. The table is just deep enough to put my laptop. Useful hooks and self are provided so you can hang your towels, bags, hat, etc. There are two clean shared bathrooms. Free drinking water, tissues, fork, plates and cups are provided in the dining room. The host invited me to have a tea in the ground floor. He drove me around Bukit Mertajam and introduced me the new village established in the early 20th centuries. I joined the morning running on Sundays with the host and his friends. The only disadvantage is that my room window is open to the road and it’s little noisy.

An interior layout showcases distinct living spaces, including a seating area with green chairs and a television. Bedrooms feature colorful bedding, while the kitchen has modern cabinets and essential appliances. Natural light fills the rooms through large windows and sliding doors.

Great place to stay, responsive and such kind host 😭. He understood with my situation and allow to check out late a bit without pay extra. And one more cool things i've never seen any airbnb have is they provided with earplug foam. I had deep sleep last night after driving 1000km. Thank you so much host ! Sure will repeat again.

Sea front Balinese Premier Suite

Detlef und GabiRating, 5 stars14 months ago

Lost Paradise is truly a little oasis in a beautiful garden with two great pools. We had the Marwa Suite and it was super, beautifully big and spacious, with two balconies. We stayed there for two nights and enjoyed it very much. In the complex there is the Buri Buri Café where you can get breakfast and snacks, all very delicious. But you should know that this is a photo hotspot and therefore a lot of people come there. However, the hotel's own areas are only accessible to the hotel guests. Other restaurants nearby are only accessible by grave.

The entrance features a warmly lit sign with the name 'Sabai Sabai Guesthouse Penang' against a textured brick wall. A decorative metal gate is visible alongside, with a wooden door behind it, creating an inviting entrance.

I had a wonderful stay at Sabai Sabai Guesthouse Penang. It was worth for pay, super responsive and convenient with the self-check-in and out. I had a nice meeting with the host, great conversations and super friendly, likewise the staffs as well. It is near to the airport, and also walkable to nearby restaurants and hawker stalls - which the host also give a list of recommended places as well. The reason why I'm visiting Penang is to go to USM, hence the location is pretty convenient and Grab-able to USM. I'll definitely stay here again whenever I visit Penang again. Thanks!

We really enjoyed our stay, so much so that we extended by 4 nights. It was a comfortable and clean environment with a lot of personality. The hosts are really responsive and when we had a problem with our AC they fixed it within the day! Max also gave great recommendations for places to experience local art and music scene and you should check out their cafe Narrow Marrow which carries the same vibe as the stay x10! There are also great communal spaces and a fridge and filtered water machine that pours hot or chilled.
