I will not dwell on the beauty of Perhentian, because it was already written 'a lot about this little paradise, I'll just give some suggestions for those who want to bring your own child ... our little asia is 23 months and follows us in every new adventure and we had no problem either for food or anything.
There are no shops to Perhentian it 'supermarkets, and provide diapers, milk and everything else before arriving on the island.
- The exchange is 1 euro = 4 rm, much less convenient
Kuala Lumpur 1 euro = 4.60 rm.
- Internet costs 4 rm every 10 minutes
- Rent for a day of mask, snorkel, fins and life jacket costs 5 euros, we avoid taking everything from 'Italy already had a suitcase full of diapers, games etc etc..
- Food: Avoid eating at
Perhentian island Resort because it lacks variety and quantity, rather than head to the nearby coral Perhentian or cafe '(3 minutes walk from coral) to where you can eat menu, spend less and better quality!
in addition to rice and fish will also find spaghetti and macaroni with sauce ... certainly better for the little children that the rice a bit 'too much work and spicy.
- Tap water is not drinkable (always a bit 'pale yellow especially in the afternoon, and bottled water also brush their teeth x! Coast 5rm water bottle.
- Sun. remember a high security! there are only 10 umbrellas to pir but vegetation so lush that you prefer the natural shade!
- Accommodation: We stayed at the pir, perfect choice, even if it is the most 'expensive island, has no doubt the most beautiful beach ever, then as if we rent the semi suites, you'll be 17 steps from the sea comfort that follows having a baby with you.
the rooms are very clean, are placed every day, with a full change of linens and towels, but they are only 2, we had brought a couple more 'for small.
- Beach towels: are provided free at the reception, take them useless.
Kuala Lumpur: beautiful, clean and efficient surprised us positively. g floor of Suria Mall (under the Petronas Towers) is a large supermarket with all good things, including wipes, diapers, baby food bottles, creams and anything else you can come in handy.
a pleasant city tour to our child, we took her to the zoo negara and butterfly farms, then a visit batu caves wings to see beyond the beautiful temple monkeys living on the 272 steps leading to the top of the temple, visit to the towers (short but interesting visit if you go to remember and weekends to get in line early to collect tickets for free. since there went on Thursday we went to pick them up at 9 comfort for the visit of 13, fortunately without any tail !
Kota Bharu: Forced to stop not too tired before the ferry to the Perhentian, has much to offer, especially as we have happened on Friday where every shop is closed! being the absolute Muslim cities do not work on Fridays! Fortunately, the night market is always open, but it is a culinary market, so do not expect anything but small bars and food stalls where you can sit and eat here ... we ate very well!!
as a hotel, we did not find any hint on the internet, therefore we chose not to risk more by asiaroom (with which we were fine) The Renaissance Hotel, one of the most 'expensive city, clean room and excellent breakfast but there has excited as a hotel ... but it was so for one night!
to 'arrival at Kota Bharu, we have the complete package for transport by taxi to' hotel, boarding and day away tickets! the boat that took us on the island ... everything perfect, time and efficiency.
return taxi from LCCT to
Kuala Lumpur costs 61 rm remember to take your ticket before leaving the terminal if not then you touch back as has happened to us.
that mean? one of the most beautiful trips I have done a kindness and warmth that I carry always in my heart and made me go away with tears in his eyes! all the fault of paradise ... of that paradise !!!!!!
