HIG Homestay Apartment @ Langkawi

Assalamualaikum and Hai!

2nd day at Langkawi, we stay at HIG Homestay Apartment.

Booked from Agoda.com for RM179.89. 

It is initially RM174.14 but i abruptly realize that i've wrongly select the date. so i made an amend through the website and being charged RM5.75. It is actually depends on the 'current price' of the room. So initially, every hour the charge will be different!  

It is really not an easy feeling dealing with money like that, 

( feeling like a gambling )

I felt a surge of anxiety as soon as i repeatedly failed to make a payment.

finally, i need to call the maybank first to inform them to unblock any international transaction. 

I forgot the ' term ' is, but it is quite dangerous because if you unblock it, it will automatically deduct amount of money from your account without asking for TAC number or MSOS CODE. 

yeah, it is very dangerous as they can deduct your money without your concern.

so after made the transaction, i called maybank again and block it back!

fuh! settled. :)

When i first arrived here, we're a bit lost cause "HIG Homestay Apartment" was not in the Google Map. I drop by the HIG Hotel and ask the reception the exact location of this Apartment and they told me the checkin process have to be made at HIG Hotel and they will give me the Gate Pass (for car), Lift Pass and the Apartment Key. 

HIG Homestay Apartment is Langkawi Condo Istana. 

( 140 metre from HIG Hotel )

They dont have security guard at Langkawi Condo Istana, you will drive and park next to the guard house (make sure your both front tyre to be inside the yellow line and wave the Gate Pass from your front mirror and the gate will open for you to enter.

Same goes if you want to exit the Condo.

This time, i booked 'Family Room' but it is actually the whole apartment consist of 3 bedroom, kitchen stove but no pot ( hahaha, useless ), television, iron and all the basic things.

The deposit is RM100. It will eventually returned once checkout.

It do has the indoor pool, but you have to wear a swimwear. so i dont dream about it anymore since i dont bring any to Langkawi.

If i had to compared this to Perdana Beach Resort, 

i am honestly prefer Perdana Beach Resort if im looking for a comfy at my stay.

But, since HIG Homestay Apartment is located at Jalan Penarak, Kuah Town and you only have to walk 140 metre to the HIG Mall (Haji Ismail Group Mall) for shopping.

So this is basically my planning for moving and not stay in 1 hotel instead.

(i guess its kind of my hobbies to stay at different hotel each time go for a holiday. hahaha)

I made this arrangement earlier infront of my computer at Mersing.

My first night will be at Perdana Beach Resort, so i will save more time to travel to Mount Mat Cincang as it is very close.

Second night at HIG Homestay Apartment so my mom ( shoppaholic mom ) can only walk from the condo to the Mall.

and the Third night will be at Shellout Chalet near Chenang Beach to enjoy the sun kissed and sea breeze at Beautiful Langkawi Beach.

Till next entry,

Bye :)
