Pangkor Laut Resort Getaway ~ Day 1 *20 Sep 2014*

This getaway is really worth a blog!
Here we go!
**********
It took us 3 hours from KL to Marina Jetty.

Upon the arrival at Marina Island Jetty, we were welcomed by a cold hand towel and cold cordial drink. It was so chilling under hot sunny day. The lounge was very comfy and holiday started here!
Drop off the luggages, the staffs quickly put a tag on each of them and we just walk to the speed boat without worries. 

Everyone put on the harness and here we go to PLR!
Speed boat took off at 1300hr. It took about 15-20 minutes from Marina Jetty to PLR jetty.
We were welcomed by the staffs from jetty all the way to the reception area and we were seated at the lobby for some personal briefing & tips during our stay.



Check in time is 1500hr.
Therefore, we decided to have lunch while waiting for the check in.
Our Resident's Package inclusive of 2 breakfast, 2 lunch and 2 dinner for this 3d2n stay.

Our first lunch @ Royal Bay Beach Club, facing the east of the island.

Our package allowed us to choose 2 appetisers and 2 main dishes.


Appetiser 1: Gonbei Seaweed Salad (RM45)
this is the BEST salad I've ever had! There are various types of seaweeds, taste superb even without the sesame sauce. I'll definitely come back for this. Miss the crunchy and original taste of seaweeds~ 
Soooooo refreshing!


Appetiser 2: Vietnamese Spring Rolls (RM35)
The prawns are fresh and bouncing in my tongue *doink doink ...*



Main 1: Lemon-Lime Shrimps skewers (RM60)
shrimps are a little spicy but taste good to me.
Another portion of fresh salad. Healthy meal ahem~

This may not be a huge portion for a hungry man :)
So we ordered the roast chicken~



Main 2: Roast Chicken (RM55)
Very filing portion with the mashed potato underneath the 1/4 chicken.

Burp~~very full with our first lunch at Royal Bay Beach Club @ Pangkor Laut Resort.
Happy :)

The friendly staff came and check on us if we need more dessert and whether we are satisfied with all the courses.
Then he served us coffee/tea (inclusive in our package for every meal)

We are done with our lunch and a friendly staff came to inform us that the room is ready for check in.
Ohh...really need a bath after long hour travel, feel the sweat sticky yucky...

After enjoying the shower and bath tub moment, we walk around and snap around
It was a little rainy breezy moment.
Need not to worry as they provide umbrellas everywhere.
