Escaping the Crowds of Batu Ferringhi: A Hidden Seaside Gem in Teluk Bahang

Tucked away in Teluk Bahang — well beyond the hustle and bustle of Batu Ferringhi — this hotel offers a serene, secluded refuge that feels far removed from the crowds. The property enjoys a sense of privacy and tranquility that’s hard to come by on the more popular coasts.

The guest rooms were generous in size, impeccably clean, and undeniably comfortable. Throughout my stay, the two outdoor pools proved to be ideal havens for unwinding in peace. While the beach itself is modest in scale, its unspoiled charm made for pleasant strolls and quiet moments by the sea.

Dining options are varied and impressive. No. 11 presents an elevated fine-dining experience, perfect for special occasions. Jendela serves throughout the day, offering a buffet and à la carte menu spanning local and international flavors. The hotel also features Fire & Ice, a beachside bar known for its relaxed ambiance.

Breakfast was a highlight — a broad spread combining Malaysian specialties and familiar international fare, enough to suit diverse palates. It was disappointing, though not unexpected, to learn that sparkling wine is no longer served.

Overall, this retreat blends natural beauty, quiet elegance, and solid amenities — a relaxing escape when you want to get away from it all.
