Pangkor Island Beach Resort

Decided to go to Pangkor Island Beach Resort (PIBR) after a good recommendation from a friend.

From Kuala Lumpur took North South Expressway (E 1) and exit at Gopeng (exit 135). Choose this way as less travel in small town compared to exit at Teluk Intan. By this route will reach Lumut about 90km distance compared to Teluk Intan exit (130km) from the toll booth. Downside actually more kilometers and toll charges if you are from Kuala Lumpur. This route offer dual lanes each way and you will pass through Universiti Teknologi Petronas (UTP), Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) Seri Iskandar Campus and Kellie's Castle.

Check in at 2pm, reached Lumut at 12.30pm. Sent bags at PIBR's small office in Lumut and filling up at KFC Lumut. Parked car at the multi-storey car park court and will cost you about RM10 per day or 60cents per hour. Bought ticket to small jetty specifically for PIBR's and Teluk Dalam Resort's guests. Each person cost RM 19.






Packed ferry as this is on saturday.




Welcome signboard as you reach the PIBR's Jetty.

P/S:
*Accept all international credit card.

*Recreation staffs very rude and not helpful.

*Came on bad weekend. Water very murky and unable to go for snorkeling. Snorkeling session will cost Rm85 per person (adult). It will take 3 hours time. However, you will be taken to the town (around 15 mins ride) left at the town (45 mins) then taken to the snorkeling area. Actual snorkeling will be around 1 hour time only.

*Tried the kayak, very high tide and dangerous for kayak activity.

*Ordered cake to be deliver to room supposed to be at 10pM (2200 hours) but delivered at 2pM. How silly mistake.

*Rented motorcycle from the hotel sub contractor (in the hotel compound). Cost about Rm 20 per hour or Rm 60 for the whole day.
