Desaru Trip with Family

Goooood dayyy everyone! 
I actually wanted to blog about this a few months back after the trip itself but i kept on pushing it backwards up till today! 

My family and I made a trip up to Desaru, Malaysia. I can't remember what date it was but all i remember is that it was in early February. The trip was just a short getaway for us. A two days and one night trip. 

We were supposed to stay at Lotus Desaru Resort but since my family members stayed there before, they wanted to try a different resort. So, we stayed at Pulai Desaru Beach Resorts. It is just beside Lotus Desaru. There are two different Pulai Resort. One is the one that i stayed at the other one is Pulai Spring Resort which is way further up.



I rate this hotel a 7/10. The room was spacious(i didn't take a photo of it), the facilities in the room was alright too...the only thing that was lacking is WIFI. The wifi is only available in the lobby which i hated it so much because everytime when i have to answer some important messages, i have to go down just to get wifi. 

We didn't explore around that much because all of us just wanted to sit at the hotel and chill by the beach/pool and we also had our dinner at the restaurant in the resort itself. We had BBQ dinner and i would rate it a satisfactory. We could have enjoyed our dinner more if we travelled out to find food. I actually wanted to sign up for the package that brings us out to see the fireflies at night but none of my family members wants to go so i ended off the night by playing 5 games of pool at the lobby. 

We left the hotel around 1pm and stopped by a shop nearby and everything in that shop is selling at RM2. We spent around RM176 for lots of items and its only less than SGD 75-80!! Worth it! Oh and just a note, there isn't much restaurants or shop in the town of Desaru itself. Most of the restaurants are close when we were searching for lunch before heading back home to Singapore.

Had our lunch/early dinner at a town nearby and we drove back all the way to Singapore. Just a short trip. I would like to try the parasailing and jetski the next time i visit Desaru! 

Till then!
