Holiday at Pangkor Laut Resort (PLR)

[Toffees]

Had a short weekend vacation with my wife & daughter at the above resort. For those who don't know, this rsort is located in the island of Pangkor Laut just off the main Pangkor island....quite a nice resort to say as the whole island is owned by the resort owner which is the YTL Group....well i let the pix do the talking....


You will need to reach ths town of Lumut to board a boat over to the island. The anchor is the town's new landmark

Yes, the pool is quite a sight to behold.....YTL resorts are all exclusive n for this one in Pangkor Laut island...the whole island is owned by YTL group and there is just one resort there..imagine the exculsivity.....I also saw some local celebraties with their special ones spending some quality time when I was there...... The other YTL resorts I would like to try out is the ones in Tanjung Jara, off Kuala Trengganu & Cameron Highlands.
