Travel: Malaysia - Desaru

[pehong]

I had been Desaru several times without study the forum here, today Gehpoh… and read the comments here and noticed some comments it is not really accurate to my Kids response.

1) I had been always booking Lotus Desaru, no doubt my kids loves the swimming pool and the beach is clean.
2) My kids enjoying crocodile farm more than ostrich farm, including my 2 years old Boy.

For 2 days 1 nights trip it is really tight on what to see and yet want to enjoy the facilities at Desaru Resort. For those have more time, may consider to stay one night at Kota Tinggi and another night in Desaru.

To be comments more on firefly & fruits farm other time.

Have you tried taking the ferry route ? DIY ferry and hotel booking via web ?

No. We have not taken ferry to Desaru. One of my friend took and we drove to the terminal to pick her. There's no taxi at the ferry terminal.

For hotel bookings, we normal book direct with the hotel, be it Lotus Desaru or Pulai Spring.
The food at Pulai Spring is more decent as compared to Lotus Desaru.

Seafood at Renggit is good too. The Jade Garden Seafood restaurant has expanded and now owns a building.
We normally drive to Renggit (half an hour drive) for lunch.
Dinner we will settle at the food stalls which are along the main road. These food stalls are at the turn, which you will make at, to go into Fireflies. Alternatively, you can also eat at the Fireflies place. But during the last visit at the Fireflies, the waiter insisted that we order the set meal, which is more expensive. We decided not to patronise them.
U can get good Beh Teh Sor, Shi Qi Ma, pong pia at one of the store (opposite Marry Brown, i think).
