Family-friendly holiday rentals in Balik Pulau

The place is located at the Marina in Penang - a nice spot of its own with restaurants, entertainment and a small mall. The apartment is equipped and suitable for short term and outgoing guests enjoying a marina lifestyle with waterfront, bars and restaurants. The place has a spacious balcony to enjoy the view over the marina site and its strolling visitors. Some construction work has started for creating an additional island across the marina with a slight visual impact on the view from the apartment.

The unit was superb with spacious rooms and also private tub. My kids really enjoyed it.

it is a great experience staying at Alvin's place. It is a heritage house, full with characters. my family and I also want an Airbnb which is bigger than a hotel room and has privacy. This place exceeded our expectations. The place is easy to find, there are a lot of good restaurants nearby(Alvin also gives good recommendations!) Alvin is a very accommodating and proactive host. I would love to come back to stay with Alvin again! lastly, Penang is amazing 😍

Our stay at Cecilia's condo was for 2 months, so it quickly became our little home away from home. Everything met our expectations as per the description of the condo. The bed and livingroom furniture are comfy and the kitchen is well stocked with supplies and cookware. We used the stove daily for light cooking and there are two fridges which helps if you stock up on groceries. We loved the nature surrounding this condo and the regular visits by the monkeys. They instantly became the highlight of our stay, for sure. The sea view is also beautiful. There were plenty of cargo and cruise ships to watch, as well as the fishing boats that arrive early every morning. We chose not to rent a car. This location is very doable without one. We used Grab to get to and from Georgetown for shopping and touristy things. Overall, Cecilia's home is a wonderful stay for anyone looking for a natural setting, quiet, and of course monkeys! Thank you Cecilia for being such a gracious host!

We had a fabulous 5 week stay in Daniel's apartment at Jazz Service Suites. The apartment is really well laid out and even bigger than it looks in the photos, with amazing views. It was perfectly set up for a long stay, with a well appointed kitchen, washing machine and tumble dryer. Daniel was really friendly, helpful, and responded to all our queries quickly. The outdoor pool was great for our daily swim, with a kids pool and a few loungers. We didn't try the gym but it seemed popular. The surrounding buildings do cause a shadow across the pool area at times during the day, but there is always somewhere in the sunshine to sit if you wish. Tesco Lotus is just across the road, plus Sam's Groceries at Straits Quay (5 mins walk) for a more international choice. There is a food court underneath Lotus, lots of restaurants at Straits Quay, and the bus stop to Georgetown is only a few mins walk away. So overall an excellent location.

Great apartment in a nice and convenient location. Wendy was a communicative host which made things clear and easy. Would not hesitate to book again. Thank you.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The location is great. It is close to the city and other major places. Moreover, the host is friendly and very helpful. She made us feel like a home. We definitely would love to come back.

Nice place, great view. Lots good food nearby, and a few little night markets with good food (one by the nearby Lotus). A bit far from Georgetown but a 20min Grab will get you there. If you want to stay a little out of the hustle and bustle this is a great choice. Also low traffic and open areas to run (good place to prep for Penang Bridge Marathon) if that's something you are looking for.

Very reactive host, always quick and efficient in responding to issues. Very flexible in adapting their policies the need of the guest If Ill have the chance to come again in Malayisa Ill definitely book this place again

Where to begin? What an absolutely stunning colonial home in a perfect location. Shawn and co were amazing with communication, the self check-in was well explained and super straightforward. Very easy to find the property too. The house itself is beautiful, plenty of space, very tastefully decorated, and comes equipped with everything you need for your stay. A big bonus is the outside seating area, garden, and wet kitchen area. Lots of nice places to eat nearby, and a very short grab ride to the beach, shopping malls, and Georgetown. Honestly one of the nicest places we’ve stayed during our travels around Malaysia, wouldn’t hesitate to come back here next time we’re in Penang. Thank you so much Shawn for sharing your home, for your professional and timely responses to our questions, and for making the entire stay so easy and relaxing. Absolute 10/10

Had a wonderful stay! The host was super friendly and helpful throughout. The room was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Would definitely recommend and stay again!”

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Clara's place! From the moment we arrived, Clara were incredibly welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities we could ask for. Clara went above and beyond to provide local recommendations, ensuring we got the best experience during our trip. Their attention to detail and genuine hospitality made us feel right at home. The check-in process was seamless, and communication was excellent throughout my stay. A special thank you to Clara for allowing a late check-out—it was truly appreciated and showed how considerate and accommodating they are. We highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a cozy, feels like home, well-maintained space with an outstanding host. A special bonus it's pet friendly too. We would definitely book again in the future!

great location, great little flat with everything you'll need

Overall home experience was great despite the aged apartment complex. Kudos to the host for the prompt response and being able to provide to our request.

We had an overall great experience staying at the Batu Ferringhi apartment in Penang. The apartment was clean, spacious, and came with a beautiful sea view that made our stay truly relaxing. The location was also perfect , close to the beach and local eateries. The host was responsive and check-in was smooth. However, we did notice that the pillows had an unpleasant smell, which could be improved for a more comfortable stay. Other than that, everything else was lovely and we would definitely consider returning!

Absolutely loved this place! The view alone made everything well worth it. Watched sunrise and sunset in the comfort of our own space. The street lights at night were so beautiful. The stay was super comfortable as well. Place was spotless and neat. Lots of good food nearly as well. The only I wish we had but didn’t was either a washer or a laundromat on site.

Located in best part of beach in batu ferringhi area. Direct access through a secure gate. Infinity pool was perfect for afternoon after a long hike in close by national park. Access to Georgetown very easy with scenic bus ride , the stop is right in front of condo. The building seems to be the newest and cleanest property in area. Good amenities.

Clean and nice place. Everything matched the photos. Jack is very responsive and friendly. He cares about the well-being of his tenants. Easy entry with the box provided and instructions given. Everything is at the bottom of the residence (bars, restaurants, supermarkets...)

Very nice service and good comunication

The house is beautiful, check-in was smooth, and there are many restaurants nearby. Very good experience!
