Description

**Please kindly read our full listing to be aware of any updates or house rules prior to booking. Thanks!!!**

Make your stay unforgettable at our top-floor, corner unit! It comfortably fits two and is centrally located in between George Town and Batu Ferringhi. Enjoy the spacious bedroom, natural lighting, and a convenient location! The one-bedroom condo apartment (950 square feet) is outfitted with a spacious master bedroom with a king-sized bed, leather reclining chair, and bathroom with bathtub, wall-TV, and an overhead rain shower. There is an additional bathroom connected to the living room area. The furnished living room has comfortable seating with a TV (with English cable channels and a DVD player) and large windows. There is also a large corner balcony and outdoor seating.

**THE UNIT**

- Towels & linen

- A full kitchen

- Washer and dryer

- Iron and ironing board

- Hairdryer

- WiFi access

- Free parking spot available, upon request

(Just for your information, construction has just started in the adjacent lot. **Update October 2016 - the windows and sliding door has been changed in our unit. This has greatly decreased any construction noise coming from the site. If you have any questions regarding this, please do not hesitate to ask!!)

Discounts are provided for a week-stay and a month-long stay!

**THE STRAITS QUAY GROUNDS**

Guests have access to a beautiful infinity-pool that is located in a terrace lined with frangipani trees. There is a children's pool and bathroom and showers for residents and guests. There is also a tennis court, fully-equipped gym, outdoor seating, and lounge seats. On each floor, there is a lounging area with several sofas and a marina and ocean view. The Marina Suites at Straits Quay is a development by the famous E&O Hotel Group and touts incredible design and aesthetic sentiments.

**THE NEIGHBORHOOD**

The unit is located right above easily-accessible waterfront restaurants, cafes, bars, boutiques, massage parlors, hair salons, bike rental, and Sam's Groceria (a grocery store with local and Western goods). Tesco and other restaurants are less than a ten minute walk away. The neighborhood around Straits Quay is very clean, safe, and convenient in its closeness to restaurants and other amenities. Spend your time enjoying a drink on the balcony. Or you might want to head downstairs to enjoy a classy meal or listen to live music at a pub by the water. Take the kids to Straits Green, a free and clean water play area walking distance from the apartments. And don't forget to enjoy a walk day or night by the water, along paved walkways.

Our unit is in a wonderful location as it is located in between George Town and Batu Ferringhi. Spend a few days exploring the historical UNESCO city and a few more walking along the beaches or checking out The Tropical Spice Garden, The Penang Butterfly Farm, or ESCAPE Theme Park.

**GETTING AROUND**

**BUS**

Rapid Bus line 102 picks up right outside Straits Quay. Rapid Bus line 101 picks up across from Tesco (about 10 minute walk). Both of these buses will take you either towards Batu Ferringhi or towards town where upon they will eventually stop at the Komtar Bus Terminal (where you can catch any other bus). There is also a Penang Hop and Hop Off bus stop for the beach route a few steps outside the unit!

**UBER**

If you have mobile data we recommend downloading the Uber app to your phone. Uber drivers are much more affordable than taxis on the island and the service is highly recommended.

**TAXIS**

If buses don't suit you or if you don't have mobile data there are always taxis that can be found right outside of Straits Quay.
