Location: Cinta Ayu All Suites Hotel, Pulai Springs Resort, Johor
Last weekend, we drove up to
Johor for a short weekend getaway, to celebrate our 9th anniversary as well as testing my new
GPS receiver to
Malaysia.
We stayed at
Cinta Ayu All Suites Hotel [
note: Cinta Ayu, not Cinta Laura :P :P ], a nice apartment-type hotel located in the vicinity of
Pulai Springs Resort. This resort is located on the outskirts of
Johor Bahru, along the main road leading to
Pontian.
Although the resort is meant more for golfers (since it's surrounded by two 18-hole golf courses), it also provides quite good facilities for families as well. Other than the hotel's swimming pool which is located on the second floor, we can also use the main resort's facilities, including the swimming pools which have nice views over the golf course and
mount Pulai. One of the swimming pools is also equipped with a slide, which Irza enjoys very much.
We chose a 2-bedroom type of apartment for S$170 per night, which is booked online from
AsiaTravel and includes breakfast for 4 persons. The 1-bedroom type is also available for S$128 per night. The breakfast is provided at the Cinta Terrace restaurant and the food is quite nice. There's also a spa facility at the sports centre, and the price is quite reasonable.
Quite worth the value for money, in my opinion.
