There are many great seafood restaurants in Malaysia but one that stood out for me would be Jade Garden Seafood Corner Restaurant. This restaurant is located near Desaru and it is not hard to miss this place with it's huge signboard. You get to choose indoor or outdoor seatings but I would suggest taking the outdoor seats as there's a spectacular view of the sea. You could eat happily as you watch the sun sets and enjoy the natural sea breeze too. Tanks of fresh live seafood can be seen inside the restaurant and you can take your pick on what you want. I ordered their specialty lobster dish and trust me, it's really delicious with it's tender meat. We ordered other dishes such as their homemade tofu with seafood, egg gravy seafood hor fun, stir fry vegetables, and deep fried squid. Everything was tasty and awesome. Restaurant was clean and service was swift. Take a walk by the sea area after your meal, great way to end the day. #tripblazers

#mysgmemories Desaru is another location that Singaporeans love to go Do you know you can take a ferry to desaru? This public beach is hidden among the resorts. You only need to pay 2Rm to park at the carpark and you can enjoy the beautiful beach Waters are clear, sand is soft. And if you are lucky you will be able to spot people riding horses galloping along the shore. Do check out this beach when you are nearby and enjoy the waves

My family and I were in Desaru holidaying and we thought why not bring the kids to hang out with ostriches at Desaru Ostrich farm. The farm was a little out of the way and yes I got to admit it was old and run down. However, it was an educational guided tour with explanations on the ostriches there. The kids also had fun feeding the ostriches and other animals on the farm such as goats and chickens. We were also surprised when an ostrich egg was brought out and we were shown how tough it was. The egg was so heavy and hardy that it can take our human weight and it needed a drill to break open it. The bird feeds and entrance fees were not expensive and ultimately the kids had fun interacting with the animals there. The area is small so you can cover the farm in less than an hour. A word of caution, do not wear anything shiny or have too many accessories on you, as the ostriches are attracted to them and may peck on you. Some ostriches are free to roam around the farm so do not panic when they are near you. They are actually rather tame. It's a unique experience for us and your kids will equally enjoy their time there. #wecreate

Desaru coast is a short 90-minute drive or ferry ride from Singapore. It is fairly secluded and has a lot of nature elements. Staying here was pretty comfortable and had most modern facilities available, on top of having beautiful scenery and even some wildlife all around. The weather can be unpredictable so remember to bring your raincoats and windbreakers in case it rains heavily. My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #glamping #tripmoments #nature #beachlife #greenery #desaru #malaysia

Desaru Coast is a coastal resort area in Southeastern Johor, Peninsular Malaysia. The small town of Bandar Penawar serves as the area’s transport hub. Whether you are traveling alone, with your friends or family, there are more than enough activities to keep your stay fun and awesome and alternatively, if you want to keep it low-key and relaxed, the place can still give you the quiet and peace as it is still laid-back and not too crowded. For those bringing their kids in tow, there’s the Desaru Coast Adventure Water Park and the Ostrich Farms. If you love nature activities, a trip to the fishing villages in Tanjung Balau and the Desaru Fruit Farm are top options. And then there’s the food. At 40-50 RM or around 10 USD, you can already feast on affordable seafood as the town is coastal in nature. Keep it local and definitely there will be plenty of affordable but decent food options. The race started with a rolling start process in front of The Westin Desaru Coast Resort beachfront. The course is an inverted triangle swim, and in a clockwise direction. The swim was relatively smooth except for some little waves near the shore. Feedback from finishers were the presence of tiny shrimp-like creatures, or planktons. That’s open water swim for you and you will get through that. The last 700m swim back was a hurdle for some, as they were fighting to keep it rightmost on waves that were coming from right to left. From the swim out is a good 200-300 meter jog to the transition area. Another 200m jog from the transition area greets the athletes from where the bike mount area is. The long transition is worth it as this is one of the best bike courses in the triathlon racing circuit in Asia. What made the bike course pop out in this review is two things: First, the roads are silky smooth (as Zohan would say it), almost perfect and immaculate road conditions. Second, the canopy of trees and vegetation is a welcome sight, especially in the Jalan Ladang Siang section. With the sun barely out, the canopy provided shade to the athletes. It is truly a refreshing view. Despite the terrain being rolling and undulating, there is nothing too hard for most trained triathletes, except for a few steep sections. A cassette with 27 or 30 at the back is more than enough. Despite that, the course is not technical and plenty of straight sections can give triathletes time to keep their head down and steady. I thought the course would feature some coastal views, but the roadside view of plants, trees and vegetation does not disappoint. Course was well marked and plenty of marshals and police/security on hand to control the minimal traffic on the course. On my coverage, there was very minimal vehicle-cyclist interaction, and could say that the bike course was almost exclusive to the participants. Another long jog to the transition area greets the triathletes after the dismount area. As with any Siutheast Asian race, it should be hot on the

it was an awesome unplanned staycation at Lotus Seaview Beach Spa and Resort. Even though it is quite a distance from the main attraction at Desaru, I bet that you would not regret your stay here. The hotel staff are so, so friendly and helpful. They are kind and really customer-friendly. When we requested for a room nearest to the beach, my friend and I were given an upgraded room without any extra charges.

Looking for a hotel that is a great staycation in malaysia that is located via the coast? Head to desaru coast hard rock hotel located south east of Malaysia with approx 3 hours drive away from Kuala Lumpur. Hard Rock hotel is a full amenities hotel that has a filled furnished gym with treadmill and weights included, a pool with a nice little cafe beside it while customers can enjoy a their food and drink with the view overlooking from the pool area or maybe you can just take a walk towards the small little garden that Hard Rock Hotel has created to promote the eco friendliness this hotel has offered like to stop usage of straws or any harmful products that might harm the earth. #meetkualalumpur #desarucoast #amenities #swimmingpool #view #ecogarden #thingstodo #roadtrip

Lokasi resort yang strategik dan jauh dari kesesakan kawasan bandar tetapi berhampiran dengan pekan Sungai Rengit yang mempunyai pelbagai kemudahan kedai-kedai runcit & makanan yang menarik sama ada Fast Food dan masakan panas serta pasaraya Econsave dan pasaraya yang lain-lain.

Sangat tertarik dengan pemandangan laut dan matahari dikala waktu matahari terbenam dan matahari terbit. #awesomepic #mytripvlog

Amerald Resorts Hotel - tucked at a quiet side of the Jalan Kg Punggai Desaru, the hotel seemed ok with some extension buildings abandoned next to the hotel. Landscapes fronting the beach of the hotel is quite well maintaid. Ruby Coffee House served tasty hearty breakfast in the morning. Comfortable place to stay. Friendly staffs and very cooperative. Nice view. There are plenty of outdoor activities that you can enjoy here such as ATV, snooker, go cart & electric scooter on a rental basis. The rightful place for a relaxing and calming environment with a nice sea view, responsive staff, and the room were totally cozy. Highly recommend for those looking for a place to relax and rest. #tripblazers #awesomepic

The resort stands out with its first-rate sea view and garden view villas as it overlooks the calm waters of the South China Sea. The salt-water pool and a fully stocked gym are just two of the amenities that Lotus Seaview Beach Resort offers to visitors. #tripblazers #MyTripVlog #staycation

Address: 7,9 ＆11, 1, Jalan Jenahak, Kampung Sungai Rengit, 81620 Pengerang, Johor Ambiance/Facilities: Nice exterior and interior wooden design restaurant, very spacious and windy. Good for a big group of people. Their dining tables are bigger than usual. There is an artificial waterfall and pond at the entrance, and two big beautiful Asian Arowana kept in fish tank, guess it's for Feng Shui's purpose. Highlights: I have done some research about the restaurants in Pengerang before our trip, this Lobster Village is one of the highly recommended ones. We ordered the big Signature Butter Lobsters because the smaller sizes sold out. It tasted really fantastic and the meat was so sweet! It was so fragrant! I saw many locals dine here, that means the dishes here must be good, they have regular customers. There were some foreigners too enjoying the meal. The staff were friendly and really efficient. As soon as you are seated, they will take orders and serve drinks. Highly recommended for fresh seafood and Chinese 'wok hei' meals. Avg. Price Per Person: RM100 Rating: 4/5 #mustvisit #mustdo #restaurant #malaysia #seafood #pengerang

Have you wondered why ostrich bottoms are Botak? saw with my own eyes. The ostriches peaked each other bottoms every so often. I would highly recommend this ostrich farm as its one of the biggest one I’ve seen. It is well kept and the birds are well taken care of. This place is suitable for all ages. The entrance fee for adults is 20 Rm and kids 15 Rm. you will first listen to a guru taking about this being the biggest ostrich farm in Asian and the ostriches are brought in from Africa. we learned that each ostrich egg can tolerate 100Kg. If u are heavier than that, avoid standing to save a newborn ostrich life. The whole visit will take 30-45 minutes.

Address: Jalan Telok Ramunia, Kampung Changi, 81600 Pengerang, Johor, Malaysia Highlights: The farm is located behind houses, in case you are surprised by the location. Quite spacious with several containment areas where the ostriches are kept. From the eggs, babies and grown-ups. The entrance fee is reasonable and food for feeding the animals only cost RM2 per bundle. There were free-roaming ostriches and they had their own names. I particularly like Lulu and Lily. I enjoyed feeding them, the calmest ostriches I have ever met. You also get to stand on the real ostrich eggs, they won't break! Other animals like chickens, rabbits, guinea fowls and horses are available too. Good for both kids and adults. The farm was clean and well maintained. Staffs were friendly and informative too. Highly recommended. Rating: 5/5 #mustdo #desaru #johor #ostrich

Do not get confused, This is not the Lotus Desaru in Bandar Penawar. This is Lotus Seaview Beach Resort & Spa at Tanjung Punggai, Pengerang. But still under management and the same group. The landscape and layout of the resort is beautiful. There’s Lots of greenery . But the swimming pool is distant from the main lobby and resort. Had to leave the guard and walk a little to the next building. Only those with a wristband can play pool. 1 room get free 2 or 4 wristbands. The rest have to buy RM5/person. When checking in, you can also get a RM20 f&b voucher. But it seems that many people don't use it because there are many restaurants within the vicinity. But the best thing here is the beach. Safe for kids.... It's really nice to take a dip or play volleyball on the beach. There are also mats that are ready to buy or you can bring food from home. It feels peaceful. But with the condition that the weather is nice. If it's really hot, even we can't bear to burn our skin 😁. So if you're bored, you already know where to go, yes? #awesomepic #bfftrip #urbanexplorer #beaches

Desaru Beach is a popular beach in Johor and even attracts tourists from abroad, especially tourists from Singapore. This beach is often the main choice of locals as a destination for recreation and relaxation with the family. In addition to having natural beauty and beauty, Desaru beach also has white beach sand and clear sea water.

Interesting place for couples. The atmosphere is far from the hustle and bustle of the city. There is a pool, gym, the room is ok not the bed. Just the uniqueness of the location with the room design. The room is finished with a big fridge, it's like being at home. That's unique too. The design in the room is also ok, there is a table and office chairs, then there is a coffee table with chairs that are just nice. There is also a table outside to hang out in front of the room. The atmosphere is quiet, but that day the room couldn't face the lake. The room area for me is quite spacious, the closet is also complete with a safety box, standard hangers, the breakfast menu is also nice but basic breakfast. Nasi lemak, sambal cuttlefish, mini sausages, toast, rice porridge, fruits like that are the times of the day I have breakfast.
