damai beach resort kuching
Hello.....
this is the second night of my 3 day 2 nite stay in kuching.....
we had stayed in Damai Beach resort.... .. a very wonderful place.... sort of like you're staying in an island kinda feeling...... had booked a superior room..
and had a view of the swimming pool, the sea and part of the mountain of Santubong.. lucky eih...
sad that we had stayed for one night only.. wish we had stayed longer....
during the day .. there's a lot of activities here...
at night time... not much you can do.... we had our dinner at a nearby fishing village..... the food was superbly fresh...

Family Vacation - Travel Plan
today family vacation seems like a norm ...... everyone taking a trip here and there....
just imagine...the cost it can take up .... yes... mind you... traveling do take cost.. even if it's only the petrol/gas....
flights... accommodation .. transport... not to mention the foods and drinks and all sorts of other stuff.. this and that....
yes... when we say vacation... it means $$$ ding!...
so before you head off on a family vacation.. do a little research..... who knows you might find vacation deals.. hotels promotion... i always do..! ;-)
I've compile some list of things to consider before packing those bags..
1. Duration of the vacation
Seven days is the max...... especially when you have kids... they seems to get bored if you go away very long.. and it will alter their normal schedule.... seven days or a week should be comfortable... so that you can have a good pace.
2. ensure that everyone's needs are met and happy
this vacation main focus is getting everyone to be happy ...therefore..include everyone needs in the planning...kids, adults, elderly...
consider the likes and dislikes of the members.
3. Pace
My family and i enjoys taking time by the beach... strolling ... some might enjoy a mountain hike... action based... these should be considered also....
4. Mode of transport
if you have options... take time in evaluating the options like where to get on a bus/ car ride/ flights.... who will drive.. taxi /cabs to the airports/ stations ....or is the bus nearby....
5. age appropriateness
if elderly are also in the trip..... consider the activities that you are proposing.... whether it is ok or not .
6. MONEY...
last but not least... money...... you cant go anywhere without paying ..LOL.... unless if it a free trip .. huhuhu
so .. there..... some of the many consideration before planning a family vacation...
hope you have fun .....

vacation to kuantan
kuantan has been a regular spot for me and my family as my in-laws are nearby there. Ok..Ok... not so near.. but it is along the same route.....
Till now now i'm not sure how many times i've been there.... but so far my vacation to kuantan has always been a pleasant one....
I'm hook with the seafood there... much cheaper and fresher than in Kuala Lumpur....
the best place to dine......... would be Tanjung Lumpur.... it has lots of small shoplots that offers a variety of seafoods....
The most common seafood type here .....Grilled Fishes with special dipping sauce.....
but my best bet woulsd be 'Mail Ikan Bakar' and 'Ana Ikan Bakar" ...
mind you .. but everyone has different tastebuds... some might prefer other .. and this is preference...
Totally in love with it... :-)
wished i'd took picture of the food so that i can post it here... but it seems the foods're always disappearing before you could snap it .. Dang!! ... heheheh
The best thing to do in Kuantan is of course heading to the beaches.. Kuantan has a lot of nice and lovely beaches... ( mainly it's location is beside the sea.. huhu)
I'm kind'da a private gal.... who loves some peace and quite... and not the hassle and bustle of people during my vacations....
so i usually head out to a few place which has less visitor.. but still are lovely....
Where??? and How ????
First .. i always avoid school holiday.... the beaches here would be pack... especially the weekends.. and public holidays of course ..
Second ... i always head to hotels with private beaches...(and it's clean) ( ok some might be soooo.. expensive ...i.e Hyatt Kuantan) but actually you can find good deals of various hotels in Kuantan...
my choice would be Swiss Garden Resort & Spa..... heheh.. my ... well it ticks off all may requirement boxes... a bit pricy .. but i like it here... and since my in-law in in a wheel chair ... this hotel is what you called in Malaysia "OKU Friendly" which means this hotel offers some (not all) facilities for disable people example, the ramp is every where.... except the sandy area of course...
i've stayed in a few hotels in kuantan before which does not sit to my liking.... you can see a few of my reviews in TripAdvisor.
reviews of hotels are for sharing purposes.
i'll be heading to sarawak this weekend .... so next week i'll be reviewing and sharing my experiences with this blog sooon..
