My husband and I spent four wonderful weeks at Lilian’s condo. It felt like our home away from home! The space was perfect and very comfortable for the two of us and came well equipped with everything we needed.The unit is very clean and well maintained. The kitchen was had all the necessary items needed for cooking and preparing meals. Everything equipment was in good working condition. There was a very good supply of clean linens at our disposal. It was nice not to have to worry about dish soap, hand soap and shampoo since it was all supplied for us. Lilian was very friendly and welcoming. She was easy to contact and responded quickly with anything we needed regarding the condo. The location of the condo was excellent. There was a small grocery store in the complex that has everything you would need. It was handy have the restaurants in the complex for a nice meal out. There is a wet market and larger grocery store within away walking distance. The 101-bus stop to Georgetown or Batu Ferringhi is just a short walk to the main road. We had a nice time enjoying the pool. It was very peaceful and relaxing. My husband and I will definitely come to Lilian’s condo the next time we are in Penang!

We stayed at straits quay for 5weeks in Jan/Feb. The appartment was very well equipped, spacious and clean. The pool was amazing and very quiet. Our host Susanna met us on arrival even though it was 0100. Unfortunately our luggage was left in Kuala Lumpur by the airline. We could not get through on the phone to the airport the next day to find out when it would be delivered. Susanna helped us and managed to obtain information .Our luggage arrived at 1800 . The only downside was the building works going on which made the area quite noisy at times. I think the photos need updating as the view from appartment is not as shown on Home and Away. My thanks to Susanna for letting us stay in pleasant appartment.

Great location in Straits Quay, just 5 minutes to Gurney Drive and 10 minutes to Batu Ferringhi. Lot's of shops, pubs and restaurants in Straits Quay (you don't even have to go outside if you don't want to!). Sam's Groceria is downstairs as well. Great pool, small fitness center with just the basics. Susana is a great host as well. With all of the condos being built in Seri Tanjung the views from the condo aren't what they used to be but if you want to be down on the water in a great location this is the place to be!

Fantastic resort and a really nice apartment. Susanna was very welcoming to my wife and I. Fantastic pool in the complex which was great for early swims ( and later ones too). Easy reach of most area on public transport if needed or grab a cab! Highly recommend this place to others!
