Batu Burok Beach Resort, Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu

No.906-A, Jalan Pantai Burok, 20400 Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu, Malaysia
Nice cozy hotel at Batu Burok Beach. Basic but comfortable. Rates start from RM135, promotion RM90. Swimming pool, restaurant, volleyball net, beach football. The Batu Burok sea is probably too wavy to swim but it’s good for fresh air and to see the sunrise. WIFI.
BONUS: Good value. About half the price of resorts on the islands. Quite nice to surf the net by the beach on my laptop. No power points though. Then again, why was I surfing the net at the beach? That’s a long story.
